New to Me – November 2025
I knew that November was going to be huge for New to Me games, but I didn’t realize just how huge! Between a convention (which, surprisingly enough, I didn’t play many new to me games at until the day Abi showed up) and multiple… Continue Reading “New to Me – November 2025”
BGG Top Games – 1101 Through 1200 – Thoughts
Last week’s post talking about some of the games just outside of the Top 1000 on Boardgame Geek seemed to be a big hit. Maybe not in terms of visitors to this site, but with friends of mine, sparking some discussion. In the hopes… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 1101 Through 1200 – Thoughts”
Spirited from Garphill Games – On Kickstarter in January 2026
There are so many games from Garphill Games (especially those that Shem Phillips is involved in) that I like, that news of a new game coming from them always raises my eyebrow in expectation. We’ve now received an announcement of their next Kickstarter (after… Continue Reading “Spirited from Garphill Games – On Kickstarter in January 2026”
September 2025 Gaming
September was a weird month of gaming, mainly because I had a huge number of plays compared to August, but actually fewer games! Part of that was because the final two Sunday game days were dominated by a huge game of Wonderland’s War (details… Continue Reading “September 2025 Gaming”
August 2025 Gaming
It’s nice when a month of gaming comes together in unexpected ways is better than you expected it to be. I was surprised by July’s gaming numbers, considering I was off. August came around and I was going to be missing one Sunday due… Continue Reading “August 2025 Gaming”
Trading Against the Tide – Tides of Trade Review (Wayfarers of the South Tigris Expansion)
The recent Kickstarter from Garphill Games with all of the South Tigris expansions recently showed up on my doorstep, so apologies for the fact that you’re going to be inundated with South Tigris content for a little bit! After getting through the Scholars of… Continue Reading “Trading Against the Tide – Tides of Trade Review (Wayfarers of the South Tigris Expansion)”
Bury the Nose – Body of Books Review (Scholars of the South Tigris expansion)
Sometimes expansions comes out and they fix something that may have been a little off in the base game. (Wayfarers of the South Tigris expansion, I’m looking at you a little bit). Sometimes, though, an expansion just gives you more stuff to think about… Continue Reading “Bury the Nose – Body of Books Review (Scholars of the South Tigris expansion)”
New to Me – June 2025
Ah, June. Halfway through the year (at the end of it anyway) and it’s good to take stock of where I am in my boardgaming. I’ve played more than half again the number of unique games as I did last year, meaning I (hopefully)… Continue Reading “New to Me – June 2025”
June 2025 Gaming
With a convention in June (Bottoscon for the win!), I knew that June would be a much better month for gaming than May was. That’s one reason I love convention months! Even so, there weren’t as many “new to me” games as in previous… Continue Reading “June 2025 Gaming”
Friday Night Shots – How Important is Art?
Has it been five weeks yet? No, it hasn’t! Welcome back to the bar, only a week later. You must have seen the lights on in the window, or maybe the fire that’s in the corner. We should probably put that out. Anyway, it’s… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – How Important is Art?”
