We’re quickly moving through the 5000s in the Boardgame Geek game rankings list, and this week is actually pretty good and pretty bad. Pretty good because I’ve actually played three of them! (actually 4, but the extra one jumped up into last week’s century… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 5301 – 5400”

We’ve hit the 5000 mark in our examination of the Boardgame Geek game rankings, one century of games a week, and it feels quite cool, actually. I’ve really enjoyed doing this series, and it has kept me consistently writing as well, which is another… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 4901 – 5000”

The last century of the BGG Top Games list was actually not too bad. Lots of nostalgic wargames for me, plus having played a few of the really cool games on the list. Still, the number of games played wasn’t the largest. Will this… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 4201 – 4300”

No time warps this time, hopefully. There wasn’t last week, anyway. Yes, doing these centuries (that’s 100 games for those who have been wondering) of Boardgame Geek game rankings have been really interesting and fun to do. But writing them ahead as I do,… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 3501-3600”

It’s another week, and another century of ranked boardgames from the Boardgame Geek rankings. I figure I’m going to keep doing this until I run into a century where I have literally played none of the games (even then, if there’s something interesting in… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 2901-3000”

This is very late, and I am very sorry. Usually I have written my “New to Me Games” post by the end of the first week of the month. But March was such a cornucopia of new games that I just couldn’t do it!… Continue Reading “New to Me – March 2026”

It’s been a couple of weeks since I’ve done one of these BGG centuries posts, though not because I was getting tired of them. There were just more important things to post about! I enjoy writing these BGG posts, even when the games are… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 1901 Through 2000”

Last week, I mentioned that we were starting to get into the dregs of the Boardgame Geek Top 2000 games. This week, that is just reinforced! Though there is enough decent (ok, maybe “interesting” is the better word) stuff to talk about that it… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 1801 Through 1900”

December turned out to be a gaming lost cause for the most part. Two Sundays cancelled for various reasons, one shortened one, and a bunch of work stuff going on so lunches weren’t always available as well. In fact, if it wasn’t for my… Continue Reading “December 2025 Gaming”
