I knew that November was going to be huge for New to Me games, but I didn’t realize just how huge! Between a convention (which, surprisingly enough, I didn’t play many new to me games at until the day Abi showed up) and multiple… Continue Reading “New to Me – November 2025”

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”

Recently the “This Game is Broken” podcast did a “Higher or Lower” game based on games in the Boardgame Geek rankings from 1000 to 2000. (You should really check them out, by the way. Hilarious boardgame podcast) During the Covid lockdowns, in order to… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 1000 Through 1100 – Thoughts”

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”

I knew March was going to be a big month for gaming, considering the Terminal City Tabletop Convention weekend. However, I had no idea how big it would be! Last month, I had 20 plays of 14 different games, and I thought it was… Continue Reading “March 2025 Gaming”

February wasn’t a great month for me overall, in terms of posting (or mental health, really). But it was a great month for games! Missing the first Sunday of the month due to weather, and then only one game on Super Bowl Sunday, I… Continue Reading “February 2025 Gaming”

I’ve been writing this blog for almost 8 years now, doing a monthly “new to me” post for just as long (it started in April 2017, but it was about March’s games!), and I often do “best games played” of the year if I’m… Continue Reading “Top 10 New to Me Games of 2024”
