First Impressions – Sanctuary
It’s time for another “first impressions” post about a game that I’ve just played for the first time but which I may not play enough to eventually review. Or maybe it’s just new enough that I want to get my impressions out there and… Continue Reading “First Impressions – Sanctuary”
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”
March 2025 Gaming

Friday Night Shots – Thematically Weird Rules
Welcome back to the bar! Apologies for being closed for so long, but we’ve had renovations going on. We were trying to fix that jukebox that kept playing nothing but crappy music. Along with maybe making this a more inviting place for people other… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – Thematically Weird Rules”
Top 50 Games Played of All Time – 2024 Edition (#10 – 1)

Friday Night Shots – Old vs New?
Welcome back! I know it’s been a couple of weeks, but I was taking some time putting a new bar up. With heated seats! I hope that works ok and isn’t a fire hazard. Oops. Anyway, have a seat and let me get you… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – Old vs New?”
