The Networks: Executives expansion Kickstarter in September

I’m relatively new to the whole Kickstarter phenomenon, but I’ve backed a few things earlier. I had decided, however, to not back any more games this year, but with one exception. Today, Gil Hova (designer of the phenomenal The Networks) announced today that the… Continue Reading “The Networks: Executives expansion Kickstarter in September”

New Visitors Expansion for Viticulture in 2018

Sorry I’ve been away so long. Was expecting to do some blogging on my three weeks vacation and…didn’t. But what great news to come back to!

Onirim updated again – Crossroads & Dead Ends expansion

It sort of sucks to be driving along late at night and then suddenly you’re in a construction hold-up in line with other cars that you weren’t expecting and there’s no way to turn around or bail.

Imhotep expansion – Eine neue Dynastie coming in October

I’m a big fan of the 2016 game Imhotep, the quick and easy game where you’re building monuments in ancient Egypt for points. It’s so good and easy that my non-gamer co-worker played it and loved it. So I was excited to see the… Continue Reading “Imhotep expansion – Eine neue Dynastie coming in October”

Race for the Galaxy App – Coming to Steam & Massive Update

I know I’m a bit behind. Sorry about that. I’ve been too busy playing the Race for the Galaxy, from Temple Gates Games, app to actually write anything. So consider this a couple of announcements that will make any fan of this game drool.… Continue Reading “Race for the Galaxy App – Coming to Steam & Massive Update”

Smash Up – Big in Japan coming in August

I saw a post on Boardgame Geek talking about the Big in Japan expansion for the card game Smash Up, and for some reason I thought it was talking about how the game itself is quite big in Japan. I didn’t even realize that’s… Continue Reading “Smash Up – Big in Japan coming in August”

Cities of Splendor expansion coming from Asmodee

Splendor is a relatively fast, pretty fun game about collecting gems and using those gems to buy more gems. It plays in about half an hour and is actually a joy to play (maybe because it’s one of the few games that it’s not… Continue Reading “Cities of Splendor expansion coming from Asmodee”
