Some of these “top BGG Games” posts are a little lean on games that I’ve played, though I really enjoy that because we can then spend more time talking about games that it would be cool to play! If there are any in that… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 3701 – 3800”

No time warps this time, hopefully. There wasn’t last week, anyway. Yes, doing these centuries (that’s 100 games for those who have been wondering) of Boardgame Geek game rankings have been really interesting and fun to do. But writing them ahead as I do,… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 3501-3600”

It’s Wednesday, the middle of the week, so how about a middle post about Boardgame Geek rankings? I mentioned last week that I’ll keep doing these until I hit a week where I haven’t played anything. That ain’t this week! I should remind folks… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 3001 – 3100”

I knew this month would not be as good as last month. No conventions! But I was still able to get some solid gaming in, though maybe not as much as usual. One Sunday I wasn’t able to make it and the lunchtime games… Continue Reading “April 2026 Gaming”

Don’t you hate it when you’re having a peaceful Sunday brunch, and suddenly James’ bacon pulls out a machine gun and starts firing it at your burger, while Abi’s pesto linguini starts shooting rockets at both Vicki’s pizza and your tater tots? Meanwhile everybody’s… Continue Reading “Dinner Battlefield – Food Fight: Reheated Review”

February was a slow month for new to me games, even with two days of a three-day convention. Of course, fighting illness off and then actually not playing anything new for the February days of that convention would have something to do with that.… Continue Reading “New to Me – February 2026”

We’re into a new millennium! Not year-wise, of course. We are sadly still in 2026. But in looking at the Boardgame Geek game rankings, we are now over 2000. Some might say we’re getting into the dregs, where I haven’t played, or even thought… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 2001 Through 2100”

Being from the Midwest and now living in the rainy Pacific Northwest, one thing I haven’t really had much of a chance to do is walk the sandy ocean beaches on the Pacific Ocean. Yes, the Oregon Coast is amazing, but where we’ve gone… Continue Reading “Sandy Tableaus – Santa Monica Review”

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)”

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”
