I’m Not Talking to You – Games Where You Can’t Communicate

The Game - Hand

Recently I was watching a boardgame Youtube video about the creator’s top 10 things that they don’t like in games (sorry, I don’t remember who it was or I would link to them). One of these “things he avoids” was “limited communication in games.”… Continue Reading “I’m Not Talking to You – Games Where You Can’t Communicate”

The Silent Cockpit – Sky Team Review

Sky Team - Control Panel with lots of dice

One of the more recent tropes in cooperative games is the idea that players can’t talk to each other. This removes the alpha gamer issue and also can make the game more interesting. Sometimes, thematically, it makes no sense, but you can’t have everything.… Continue Reading “The Silent Cockpit – Sky Team Review”

BGG Top Games – 2601-2700

Mistwind - Board Miniatures

I hope you’re enjoying my weekly look at games ranked on Boardgame Geek that aren’t in the Top 1000. I know I’m enjoying writing them, because I love the discussion they can cause (though sadly not last week, because I left two hooks in… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 2601-2700”

BGG Top Games – 2401-2500

Shadow Kingdoms of Valeria - Main board with dice

Since I wanted to get another post done this week and it’s going to take way too long to do anything else I wanted to do, it’s time for the weekly look at the Boardgame Geek rankings, century by century! Last week was really… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 2401-2500”

BGG Top Games – 2301-2400

Harbour

Each week when I do these BGG Top Games posts, I comment about how things are getting a little thin down here in the 2000s. It’s like you’re scuba diving and suddenly your air tank is reading as near empty and you don’t know… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 2301-2400”

Terminal City Tabletop Convention Retrospective – 2026

Speakeasy - Buildings & Protection

Has it been a year already since last year’s Terminal City convention? Why yes, yes it has. This year’s event was still down at the Vancouver Convention Centre on the waterfront, but it changed buildings to a much larger room. This convention-goer approves of… Continue Reading “Terminal City Tabletop Convention Retrospective – 2026”

BGG Top Games – 2101 – 2200

Colonial Twilight - Overview

It’s been a short hiatus for these posts since I’ve had end of month stuff to do, but after a couple of weeks, we are back! Once again we are going through a century of games rated on Boardgame Geek, from 2101 to 2200.… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 2101 – 2200”

Top 50 Games Played of All Time – 2026 Edition (#10-1)

The red Viscount built a building but the Green could build something or get more Stone with a Trade action.

Now we’ve gone and done it. We’ve now reached the Top 10 games of all time, played by me at least. It’s been an incredible 5 weeks (ok, 6, but last week’s Friday post was important) of new games, oldies dropping in the rankings,… Continue Reading “Top 50 Games Played of All Time – 2026 Edition (#10-1)”

BGG Top Games – 1801 Through 1900

Cascadero - Board

Last week, I mentioned that we were starting to get into the dregs of the Boardgame Geek Top 2000 games. This week, that is just reinforced! Though there is enough decent (ok, maybe “interesting” is the better word) stuff to talk about that it… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 1801 Through 1900”

BGG Top Games – 1601 Through 1700

Warsaw - City tiles

Another break in the weekly schedule, but that’s because of New Years, a new month, some end of the year stuff, and all of that. I hope your new 2026 year has been treating you well so far! We’re back with another century of… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 1601 Through 1700”
