It Could Be Anyone! – Final Girl – Panic at Station 2891 Review
Anybody with any horror movie knowledge has heard of The Thing, directed by John Carpenter. This 1982 movie takes place on an Antarctic base with some kind of organism or creature inhabiting people and slowly assimilating all of the members of the scientific team… Continue Reading “It Could Be Anyone! – Final Girl – Panic at Station 2891 Review”
Witch One Will You Convict? – Witchcraft! Review
Solo games make a great thing to do when you’re working at home and want to take a lunch break to enjoy some games. David Thompson, Trevor Benjamin, and Roger Tankersley already have a wonderful solo game called Resist! that almost brought a tear… Continue Reading “Witch One Will You Convict? – Witchcraft! Review”
Trading Against the Tide – Tides of Trade Review (Wayfarers of the South Tigris Expansion)
The recent Kickstarter from Garphill Games with all of the South Tigris expansions recently showed up on my doorstep, so apologies for the fact that you’re going to be inundated with South Tigris content for a little bit! After getting through the Scholars of… Continue Reading “Trading Against the Tide – Tides of Trade Review (Wayfarers of the South Tigris Expansion)”
Defiance or Appeasement? – Bell of Treason Review
There’s something about a meaty game that plays in 45 minutes that just appeals to me. It makes for a nice lunch but it still exercises the brain a bit. Adding historical flavour is just the icing on the cake. I really enjoyed Mark… Continue Reading “Defiance or Appeasement? – Bell of Treason Review”
Bury the Nose – Body of Books Review (Scholars of the South Tigris expansion)
Sometimes expansions comes out and they fix something that may have been a little off in the base game. (Wayfarers of the South Tigris expansion, I’m looking at you a little bit). Sometimes, though, an expansion just gives you more stuff to think about… Continue Reading “Bury the Nose – Body of Books Review (Scholars of the South Tigris expansion)”
How Big is Your Camel? – Resafa Review
Sometimes games with historical themes throw in as much as possible regarding that theme, even when they might be unrelated. Overcompensation? Maybe, or maybe they just want to make sure there are enough things to do to keep the game interesting, and at least… Continue Reading “How Big is Your Camel? – Resafa Review”
You Got Your Cubes in My Gene Pool! – App Expansion Review – Dune Imperium: Immortality
(This is a review of both the expansion and the app version of it) The Dune Imperium games are very highly regarded, with the base game sitting at number 6 on Boardgame Geek and Dune Imperium: Uprising currently at number 11. That’s some positive… Continue Reading “You Got Your Cubes in My Gene Pool! – App Expansion Review – Dune Imperium: Immortality”
Digital Animals! – Ark Nova App Review
This is kind of a first for Dude Take Your Turn. Which is weird, because after 8 years, you’d think there wouldn’t be an opportunity for a first! In this case, I’m doing a review of a boardgame app where I’ve already reviewed the… Continue Reading “Digital Animals! – Ark Nova App Review”
He Just Keeps Coming – Final Girl (and Happy Trail Horrors) Review
I’ve never been a fan of horror films. They’re inherently silly and, yes, kinda scary at the same time. I’m not big on feeling fear at the movies and jump scares just annoy me (and startle me, yes). For some reason, though, horror tropes… Continue Reading “He Just Keeps Coming – Final Girl (and Happy Trail Horrors) Review”
Winging Your Way Through Asian Skies – Wingspan – Asia Expansion App Review
Do you think Monster Couch is now satisfied? They are the developer of the app version of the very well-regarded tableau-building card game, Wingspan. They have now released the final available expansion for Wingspan, Wingspan Asia, so they are caught up with the board… Continue Reading “Winging Your Way Through Asian Skies – Wingspan – Asia Expansion App Review”
