Abomination: the Heir of Frankenstein Coming from Plaid Hat Games
Hey! I see you over there, enjoying your Friday and knowing that the weekend is just around the corner. How about I add a bit of horror to your celebratory Friday? No, not an 8 x 10 picture of me. I’m not that mean… Continue Reading “Abomination: the Heir of Frankenstein Coming from Plaid Hat Games”

One of the popular games in the last couple of years has been Lorenzo Il Magnifico, a game about, well, an Italian guy named Lorenzo in Renaissance Italy. (Amazing how that works).

Review – Space Base

The Cold War, however, was definitely a thing and it was… Continue Reading “Review – 13 Days: The Cuban Missile Crisis”

Paladins of the West Kingdom is still on Kickstarter for 7 more days, and it funded so… Continue Reading “Paladins of the West Kingdom on Kickstarter”
Review – Architects of the West Kingdom
(Edit: 5/16/22) – I did a review of the Age of Artisans expansion. Check it out! History is my bag. I was “hist” online for a long time before I realized that I would never be found by search engines with that title. Hence, “whovian223”… Continue Reading “Review – Architects of the West Kingdom”
App Review – Tides of Time
(Edit: 5/7/20 – I forgot to link to the review when I posted that they’ve updated the app. It’s still not awesome, but it’s not bad anymore. And it’s temporarily (as of this writing) free!) There’s something to be said for seeing ages and… Continue Reading “App Review – Tides of Time”
