Board games in Malaysia

I went to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia early in October and visited some board game shops and board game cafes. Unfortunately, there were no events like C3 AFA and Popcon Asia during the time I was there, so I could not meet as many games as Indonesia. (There was Malaysia Hobby Expo on 6th and 7th October, but there were few board games.)

In this article, I will introduce one board game cafe and two board games.

Meeples European Boardgame Cafe

I'll introduce the Meeples European Boardgame Cafe. Perhaps this is the most popular board game cafe in Kuala Lumpur.

This shop is clean, bright and has about 400 games.

And Meeples is Malaysia's biggest board game provider. There is a warehouse on the upper floor of the cafe, and Meeples distributes many board games from there.

Kleptopoly

Kleptopoly is a game of corruption inspired by 1MDB scandal. 

Players buy properties like Monopoly, but the properties can be clean or corrupt.

I am not familiar with 1MDB scandal, but I had a high interest in this game. However, this game was out of stock and I couldn't buy it.

Pasaraya

Pasaraya is a deck-building game that manages a supermarket.

Player purchases inventory cards using money cards from his deck and meets the market demand. 

The game introduces some twists to the deck-building game. 

When players use money cards, they return to the supply. And players can move any number of money cards from their bank to the deck each turn.

Unfortunately, the search for board games in Kuala Lumpur this time is not enough.

Next time I would like to visit Malaysia at the time of events like C3 AFA and Popcon Asia.
