New to Me – October 2024
As I mentioned the other day, October as a month really sucked, especially for gaming. Being sick, missing three game days, I was totally surprised that I actually managed to play any new to me games! Much less three. I even managed to placate… Continue Reading “New to Me – October 2024”
New to Me – September 2024
This post has been a bit delayed, for reasons. Some of those reasons were me killing a whole bunch of Greek soldiers in Ancient Egypt in Assassin’s Creed: Origins, which is super-addicting right now. The game, not the killing. I’m fighting for Cleopatra! Or… Continue Reading “New to Me – September 2024”
September 2024 Gaming
September was a weird month for gaming, mainly because we didn’t play a lot at work because various people were away (or we just were so exhausted due to work stuff that we just wanted to hibernate at lunch). Thus, most (but not all)… Continue Reading “September 2024 Gaming”
Is Evolution a Thing or is it All Imaginary? – Doomlings: Imaginary Ends Review
What do you do when you’re really trying to evolve but you’re just not sure if you’re doing it right? Maybe all of the evolution that you think is happening is all in your head? That’s where the Doomlings: Imaginary Ends expansion for the… Continue Reading “Is Evolution a Thing or is it All Imaginary? – Doomlings: Imaginary Ends Review”
The Apocalypse Will be in Technicolor
Post-apocalyptic games are all the rage, and Radlands is yet another entry into the increasingly-crowded genre. The question becomes, is it worthy of recognition in that genre and beyond? Radlands is a 2-player battling card game designed by Daniel Piechnick with artwork by Delia… Continue Reading “The Apocalypse Will be in Technicolor”
Dragonflight 2024 Retrospective
This past weekend was the Dragonflight boardgame convention in Bellevue, Washington. I’ve gone down the last couple of years and used to go down before the pandemic, but this was the first year where most of my Vancouver contingent didn’t go down too. Thankfully,… Continue Reading “Dragonflight 2024 Retrospective”
Evolving to the End of the World
There’s something to be said for cute, family-weight games. Sure, they aren’t always super-exciting, exercising your brain in the way that may keep it active until you’re 100 like some of the heavier games might. But they’re cute! Doomlings is definitely the cute, family-weight… Continue Reading “Evolving to the End of the World”
New to Me – July 2024
I knew July would be a bit of an off month for gaming, but it wasn’t too bad. However, it didn’t really hit the “new to me games” jackpot, with only three of them to write about. Funny how it’s still taken me longer… Continue Reading “New to Me – July 2024”
New to Me – June 2024
May was a really boring month for new to me games, so much so that I was wondering how I could correct that for June. How about seven? No, that’s no my winning lotto number, though it should be. That’s how many new games… Continue Reading “New to Me – June 2024”
Review – Furnace
There’s something about chains in games that is just so cool, even though they burn my brain sometimes. I’m not talking about actual chains, of course. That would be terrible. Unless you’re into that sort of thing, in which case who am I to… Continue Reading “Review – Furnace”
