Long time no see, everybody! Sorry for the radio silence, but I’ve been moving computers and on vacation and just basically not in the mood to write for a while. But something cool coming up will always make me write something, and today I… Continue Reading “Civolution – Acceptance Letter expansion for Fall 2025”
May 2025 Gaming
I wasn’t expecting too much out of my May gaming period, mainly because of Mother’s Day and two Vancouver marathons meaning that we didn’t have our usual Sunday gaming place for three straight weeks. Suddenly, though, the light appeared and we had an alternate… Continue Reading “May 2025 Gaming”
Friday Night Shots – A Quick & Dirty Top 50

March 2025 Gaming

Top 10 New to Me Games of 2024
I’ve been writing this blog for almost 8 years now, doing a monthly “new to me” post for just as long (it started in April 2017, but it was about March’s games!), and I often do “best games played” of the year if I’m… Continue Reading “Top 10 New to Me Games of 2024”
New to Me – December 2024
It’s a new year, and coming up on my 8th blog anniversary in March! One thing I forgot to mention in yesterday’s Blog in Review post was the fact that, in those 8 years (or at least since I started, which I think was… Continue Reading “New to Me – December 2024”
Review – Civolution
(Edit: 11/10/25: I’ve upgraded this post to a review of the game, rather than a “first impression,” since I’ve now played it four times. I would not change a word of it, though. I did manage to score 194 points in one game! But… Continue Reading “Review – Civolution”
Friday Night Shots (Saturday Edition) – What Attracts You to a Game?
It’s been a month and the bar’s been closed! More renovations needed (and I’m just lazy, actually), but I’m glad you happened by and could stop in! The jukebox renovations took up most of the month, partially because I kept forgetting to pay the… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots (Saturday Edition) – What Attracts You to a Game?”
