Friday Night Shots – What’s Your Go-To Game When You’re Down?
It’s Friday night! You know what time it is, then. Pull up a stool and listen to the music for a bit. Given my post last week about games and my mental health, I was just curious what your thoughts were on this topic.… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – What’s Your Go-To Game When You’re Down?”
Review – Subastral
Ain’t nature grand? I think it is. All of the beautiful landscapes that are out there. Nature photography is some of the best photography out there. And nature games, too! There’s been a bit of a renaissance in nature-themed games in the last few… Continue Reading “Review – Subastral”
Architects of the West Kingdom – Storage Solution from Folded Space
I’ve already talked about the Viscounts of the West Kingdom storage solution from Folded Space, and how much better it is than the actual Collector’s Edition insert.

That’s changed with the latest announcement from… Continue Reading “4 New Expansions from Alderac Entertainment Group Coming to Kickstarter June 6”
American Tank Ace: 1944-1945 – Storage Solution With Rails on Boards
The previous wargame sets of the wonderful storage trays from Rails on Boards/Cube4Me have been fairly easy for even my non-spatial brain to put together. Find a tray (or maybe two), divide the pieces, maybe a couple of card trays, and Bob’s your uncle… Continue Reading “American Tank Ace: 1944-1945 – Storage Solution With Rails on Boards”
Friday Night Shots – What Game Mechanism Do You Hate?
Hey there. It’s Friday night, the Canadian Club is flowing just a little bit, and it’s time for a little light-hearted discussion about the news of the day. No, not the news that apparently there could be water under the ice on some of… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – What Game Mechanism Do You Hate?”
Games and My Mental Health
On my lunch break yesterday, I happened upon the latest Table Talk episode by Rodney Smith and the rest of the Watch it Played gang. This was posted 11 days ago. The video was asking the question “Are Board Games Good For Your Mental… Continue Reading “Games and My Mental Health”
