After a week where I literally had not played any of the games in the Boardgame Geek century I was talking about, this week is going to be huge! Well, maybe not huge, but we’re back to at least a few. That will probably… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 4601-4700”

We have reached the midway point of the 4000s in the Boardgame Geek game rankings, and we have also hit another milestone. I have not played or do not own any of the games in this century. I know I said originally that I… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 4501 – 4600”

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”

One reason I love doing these Boardgame Geek century posts about games that are ranked fairly far down is that I get to explore games that are kind of outside the mainstream. And also, most likely, games that I haven’t played in quite a… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 3601 – 3700”

There were no conventions attended in May, but there was a 14-hour games marathon where a bunch of games were played. So I knew this would be a lengthy post! This month, I actually played more new to me games than I did in… Continue Reading “New to Me – May 2026”

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”

I know I have said this before, but looking at the next couple of centuries in the Boardgame Geek top games rankings, at least the next couple of weeks are going to be very bare bones. I haven’t played a lot of them and… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 2701 – 2800”

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”

Another break in the weekly schedule, but that’s because of New Years, a new month, some end of the year stuff, and all of that. I hope your new 2026 year has been treating you well so far! We’re back with another century of… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 1601 Through 1700”
