Welcome back to the bar! It’s been a whole five weeks, so sorry about that. One of the kegs exploded and we had beer all over the floor. Spent a number of weeks trying to save as much as possible rather than cleaning it… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – Filler Games”

As expected after last month’s post, where March had a huge number of games because of a convention, April came back down to earth with a much fewer amount of games. However, it was much better than February! Which means it was a good… Continue Reading “April 2025 Gaming”

Last weekend was the 10th (maybe 11th?) annual Terminal City Tabletop Convention (though I guess it was interrupted by COVID so not actually 11?). I have to say it was probably the best yet. In previous years, the people running it didn’t do the… Continue Reading “Terminal City Tabletop Convention Retrospective – 2025”

It’s a new year! And already we’re 1/12 of the way through it. Who would have thought it would go that fast? It’s also a new year of boardgaming, which means everything I played this month is actually unique to 2025! Unless I played… Continue Reading “January 2025 Gaming”

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”

Welcome to November’s “New to Me” post! You may notice something odd about November. No, it’s not that I had way too much Thanksgiving turkey (THANKSGIVING’S IN OCTOBER, YOU NON-CANADIANS!). It’s that three of the seven entries on this list are from Alderac Entertainment… Continue Reading “New to Me – November 2021”

Another month and another “New to Me” games post. This is the 50th! It feels so good to finally be playing some new games. I’m trying to play some of the many games I bought during the worst of the pandemic (so this is… Continue Reading “New To Me – September 2021”

It was a close one this week. Yes, I almost didn’t get this post done so that it would post this week at all. That would break my streak and we know that we can’t have that. But here it is! We’re three episodes… Continue Reading “Boardgame Geek Top 300 – Play or Played – #230-221”

Wow, I’m lazy. Either that, or I’ve been in a bad mental space. You know, 2021 was supposed to be better, but so far it’s barely been marginally better and that’s only because 2020 sucked so much. I finished the Top 200 BGG games… Continue Reading “Boardgame Geek Top 300 – Play or Played – #300-291”
