It’s another month, and it’s another month of not playing any new games on the table. All three of my new to me games this month are from Boardgame Arena. That’s not a bad thing, and it’s very cool that BGA has so many… Continue Reading “New to Me – March 2021”

I such a timely guy, aren’t I? The first post in this series came out what seems like months ago (it was over a month ago, on February 15). What’s taken so long for the second post? Would you believe I fell asleep? All… Continue Reading “Boardgame Geek Top 300 – Play or Played – #290-281”

It’s now March and the Cult of the New to Me is getting restless. We’re now close to a year since lockdowns and social distancing became a thing rather than some abstract concept. This past weekend, a year ago, I was coming home from… Continue Reading “New to Me – February 2021”

Wow, I’m lazy. Either that, or I’ve been in a bad mental space. You know, 2021 was supposed to be better, but so far it’s barely been marginally better and that’s only because 2020 sucked so much. I finished the Top 200 BGG games… Continue Reading “Boardgame Geek Top 300 – Play or Played – #300-291”

One game from 2013 that slipped under my radar (probably because I just really got into gaming in 2012) was Gravwell. The game, designed by Corey Young, looks like an intriguing and quick-playing race game. Yesterday, I received an exciting email from Renegade Game… Continue Reading “Gravwell (2nd Edition) Coming from Renegade Game Studios”

(Edit – 3/30/21 – And it’s now on Kickstarter! No wonder people are coming to this post.) Double post day! Just received this in my email and thought I’d post something on the same day instead of a day later. What’s the news? (oh… Continue Reading “Sentinels of the Multiverse Definitive Edition – Kickstarter on March 30”

Another day, another Kickstarter! I’m a sucker for quick 2-player card games that can be played at work. I already backed one of them previously, and here’s another! Radlands is a 2-player card game published by Roxley Games. It’s designed by Daniel Piechnick with… Continue Reading “Radlands by Roxley Games – Now on Kickstarter”

Just a brief post today because I saw something that I found very cool on Boardgame Geek and I felt I had to share. What is a micro-expansion? Micro-expansions are a set of cards or some other small piece of an already-published game that… Continue Reading “Alderac Micro-Expansions Looking Really Cool”

Another week, another “wow, I haven’t played many games” post. It’s almost like I’m failing as a “gamer”. Is that possible? Should I really feel bad that I haven’t played a bunch of games? Maybe, if I’m actually writing about them. Am I not… Continue Reading “Boardgame Geek Top 200 – Play or Played – #160-151”
