July was vacation month. I was off the entire month and was away from my normal game group for half of the month. Thus, it’s not surprising that I only played two “new to me” games in July. But tell that to the rabble… Continue Reading “New to Me – July 2019”

June was a very slow month for new to me games. Only two! And one expansion. Man, were they great ones, though. The expansion is to my favourite game of all time (at least for now) and I got another COIN game in! I… Continue Reading “New to Me – June 2019”

It’s hard to believe we’re almost half-way done with 2019 already. Where does the time go? I know where my time didn’t go last month: playing new to me games. I only have three games to tell you about! However, as the Cult of… Continue Reading “New to Me – May 2019”

You know what? I rock. Yes, I do. Not only did I manage to get five new to me games played in April when I only was able to play eight in total, but two of those five games are more than ten years… Continue Reading “New to Me – April 2019”

It’s March! Or it was March. This post is about March, at any rate. What was I saying? Oh yeah, I played lots of new to me games last month because last weekend was a convention weekend. I played a total of eight new… Continue Reading “New to Me – March 2019”

February didn’t feel like it was going to be a good month for new to me games, mainly because I was horribly ill during one weekend and missed a game day. Thankfully, the other days had a good variety of new games as well… Continue Reading “New to Me – February 2019”

Damn, I hate colds. Colds that work their way into your head and then just sit there, clogging up your sinuses until your head feels bigger than when you get a compliment from somebody you really admire. But not in a good way. The… Continue Reading “New to Me – January 2019”

I’m back! It’s been a long month at Dude Central, and thank you everyone for the good wishes, the patience, and the condolences. December was a pretty bad month in general, with me generally not being in the mood to play games (or write… Continue Reading “New to Me – December 2018”

It’s December! And too many days into December for my New to Me Games post for November, so my apologies. I do have a good reason, though. The Cult of the New to Me was having a fundraiser, but unfortunately it didn’t go well.… Continue Reading “New to Me – November 2018”

Holy moley, true believers! October is usually a quiet month, but a gaming marathon at the beginning dumped five “new to me” games all in one day and it was only upwards from there! That was the exciting part of the month. I was… Continue Reading “New to Me – October 2018”
