Sagrada App – Early Access on Steam – First Look
(Edit 3/31/20) – Sagrada is now out on full release, iOS & Android! It’s $9.99 CDN for me, so maybe $7.99 US? Not sure. It requires you to be in Portrait mode, which I guess makes sense.

Expansion Review – Smash Up: Monster Smash

Yesterday morning, the Kickstarter for one of my most anticipated games went live. Viscounts of the… Continue Reading “Viscounts of the West Kingdom now on Kickstarter”
Dice Tower West – Positives & Negatives
(Edit 9/24/21) – Apparently they have changed hotels for the 2022 Dice Tower West convention, so almost all the negatives mentioned below may be gone! I’m not familiar with the Rio, so can’t comment on it. Check out the Dice Tower West web site… Continue Reading “Dice Tower West – Positives & Negatives”
Nomad Games to Add a New Expansion to Smash Up App
Yesterday, I received an email from Nomad Gamesthat made me very excited. No, it wasn’t a new Talisman: Origins expansion or anything like (though I do love getting early access to those!). No, they announced that the Smash Up app is going to be… Continue Reading “Nomad Games to Add a New Expansion to Smash Up App”
