July was yet another weird month for games, as I explained in last week’s “games played” post (sorry this one took so long after that). Even with that, I was able to get six new to me games to the table. Granted, three were… Continue Reading “New to Me – July 2023”

Jamey Stegmaier of Stonemaier Games announced recently that their roll & write game, Rolling Realms, is coming to Steam soon, developed by Savant Games.

Trick-taking games are almost becoming a dime a dozen boardgame commodity. There are so many of them out there that there has to be some kind of hook in order to get them noticed. There’s Brian Boru, for example (which I’ll be talking about… Continue Reading “Review – Cat in the Box”

It’s June. I’m amazed that we’re almost half-way through the year already. But it’s also time to look back at May and the gaming that I did (which I did in general already) With Mother’s Day taking up one Sunday, it was another sparse… Continue Reading “New to Me – May 2023”

It’s been another slower month of gaming this last May, again because one of our Sundays was cancelled (this month due to Mother’s Day…stupid moms!) This month, I had the same number of plays (19) as April but only 11 games instead of 13.… Continue Reading “May 2023 Gaming”

Ain’t nature grand? I think it is. All of the beautiful landscapes that are out there. Nature photography is some of the best photography out there. And nature games, too! There’s been a bit of a renaissance in nature-themed games in the last few… Continue Reading “Review – Subastral”

After a robust March of gaming, April took a bit of a downturn. The lack of a convention along with missing a Sunday game day and being off for a week so there were no lunch time games that week, all of that combined… Continue Reading “April 2023 Gaming”

(I put “card game” review in the title so you don’t think it’s a review of the planet we live on, or maybe a good gardening company) Nature seems to be the in thing for games right now. If I had a penny for… Continue Reading “Earth – Card Game Review”
