As a relatively new board game blogger (less than 2 years, and just hitting 200 posts), I sometimes don’t feel right making “Top 10” lists.

It was a fairly lean month for new games, which involved me missing one of my game days due to illness. But four is not a bad number! I love doing a mix of old favourites and “new to me” games. But I’m not… Continue Reading “New to Me – July 2017”
