New to Me – August 2018
After last month’s horribly slim post, August was a cornucopia of new to me games! Spanning from the distant past of 2011 to the near future of 2019. This should make my good buddy David at Roll to Review happy. I have a full… Continue Reading “New to Me – August 2018”
First Impressions – Mephisto
One of the pleasures of going to a convention like Dragonflight is the ability to playtest/demo upcoming games, most of the time with the designers themselves. On Sunday morning, after I had checked out of my room and was looking for a game (or… Continue Reading “First Impressions – Mephisto”
Review – Cat Lady
We all know the stereotype of the old lady living alone with hundreds of cats, right? Of course you do. What’s the next best thing to becoming a cat lady, though? Playing a card game where you get to collect cats, of course! Cat… Continue Reading “Review – Cat Lady”
Expansion Review – Smash Up: What Were We Thinking?

Review – Fugitive
I’ve been told that, as I get older, I’m going to look a lot like Tommy Lee Jones, only with more wrinkles (Editor: Talking to yourself doesn’t count). Why do I bring that up here, other than to let you know that I’m kind… Continue Reading “Review – Fugitive”
Expansion Review – Smash Up: Cease and Desist
If I keep on getting and reviewing Smash Up expansions, I’m going to have to come up with some creative openings that don’t all sound the same. Maybe make up some meta joke that will carry throughout the reviews? Not sure on that one.… Continue Reading “Expansion Review – Smash Up: Cease and Desist”
Expansion Review – Smash Up: Science Fiction Double Feature
As I’ve stated a few times before, Smash Up and I have a bit of a checked history. I actually almost traded it away because I found it fiddly and didn’t really care for it. Then I played it again and something just clicked.… Continue Reading “Expansion Review – Smash Up: Science Fiction Double Feature”
