Spirited from Garphill Games – On Kickstarter in January 2026
There are so many games from Garphill Games (especially those that Shem Phillips is involved in) that I like, that news of a new game coming from them always raises my eyebrow in expectation. We’ve now received an announcement of their next Kickstarter (after… Continue Reading “Spirited from Garphill Games – On Kickstarter in January 2026”
New Garphill Games Kickstarter – Cards! And Other Things
(Edit: It appears that the promos in the 5-Year Anniversary Pack for Shipwrights of the North Sea are direct reprints and not compatible with Shipwrights of the North Sea: Redux. Still, it’s only 9 cards and the rest of the promos in that batch… Continue Reading “New Garphill Games Kickstarter – Cards! And Other Things”
Kickstarter Review – Like Cain and Abel
I like card games a lot. Short, punchy 2-player card games are even better, as you don’t need a lot of time and they work in almost any circumstance. Even better is when they do some innovative things with the whole genre. Like Cain… Continue Reading “Kickstarter Review – Like Cain and Abel”
Inventors of the South Tigris Coming to Kickstarter March 12
(Edit: 3/12/24) – It’s live! Go back it here. In my sick doldrums last week, I missed the announcement from Garphill Games that the next (and final) entry in the South Tigris trilogy of games, Inventors of the South Tigris, is coming to Kickstarter… Continue Reading “Inventors of the South Tigris Coming to Kickstarter March 12”
Food Chain Magnate: Special Edition Coming to Gamefound November 14
Food Chain Magnate is not a game that I’ve ever really been able to get into, mainly because it appears to be long and pretty vicious. It’s a Splotter game, and I’ve never actually played one of their games before. I want to! But… Continue Reading “Food Chain Magnate: Special Edition Coming to Gamefound November 14”
Big Terraforming Mars Kickstarter Opens Tomorrow, September 5
(Edit: 9/5/23) – The campaign is now live! I thought this warranted its own post rather than editing the previous post, because this is so much bigger than it seemed before. No new images yet, so I’ll post the graphic that’s currently on the… Continue Reading “Big Terraforming Mars Kickstarter Opens Tomorrow, September 5”
Colossal Cat in the Box From Bezier Games Coming to Kickstarter – August 29
(Edit: 8/29/23:) – It’s live! And it’s $81 CDN before shipping. Something to think about… Exciting news for trick-taking fans everywhere, especially those of the quantum trick-taking game Cat in the Box. I like to think that Bezier Games decided to release this now… Continue Reading “Colossal Cat in the Box From Bezier Games Coming to Kickstarter – August 29”
Friday Night Shots – Pre-Order Extravaganza!
Welcome back! Belly up to the bar and let me get you a drink of some kind. Doesn’t have to be booze. It’s Friday again. The week has kind of flown by, though that could be because it feels like I have a million… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – Pre-Order Extravaganza!”
4 New Expansions from Alderac Entertainment Group Coming to Kickstarter June 6
(Edit: 6/6/23: It’s live!) It’s rare when I see a “by a bunch of stuff in one bundle” offer come up where I want most of it, so it makes it worth actually taking a look at. That’s changed with the latest announcement from… Continue Reading “4 New Expansions from Alderac Entertainment Group Coming to Kickstarter June 6”
