New to Me – September 2025
I love months where I play a bunch of games that I have no experience with. September gaming was great for the number of plays, but even better for the new to me games that I got to play! I especially love it when… Continue Reading “New to Me – September 2025”
First Impressions – Galactic Cruise
This is another “first impressions” post about a new game, a game that I’m not sure I will get three plays of but yet one I want to talk about. As I said in my Friday Night Shots post about first impressions, this is… Continue Reading “First Impressions – Galactic Cruise”
New to Me – August 2025
I love playing games that are new, even more when they’re older but still new to me! You know what I love even more? Having reviewed a bunch of them already so I don’t have to try and condense a description of them for… Continue Reading “New to Me – August 2025”
August 2025 Gaming
It’s nice when a month of gaming comes together in unexpected ways is better than you expected it to be. I was surprised by July’s gaming numbers, considering I was off. August came around and I was going to be missing one Sunday due… Continue Reading “August 2025 Gaming”
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)”

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”
Civolution – Acceptance Letter expansion for Fall 2025
Long time no see, everybody! Sorry for the radio silence, but I’ve been moving computers and on vacation and just basically not in the mood to write for a while. But something cool coming up will always make me write something, and today I… Continue Reading “Civolution – Acceptance Letter expansion for Fall 2025”
New to Me – June 2025
Ah, June. Halfway through the year (at the end of it anyway) and it’s good to take stock of where I am in my boardgaming. I’ve played more than half again the number of unique games as I did last year, meaning I (hopefully)… Continue Reading “New to Me – June 2025”
June 2025 Gaming
With a convention in June (Bottoscon for the win!), I knew that June would be a much better month for gaming than May was. That’s one reason I love convention months! Even so, there weren’t as many “new to me” games as in previous… Continue Reading “June 2025 Gaming”
