After a rather lackluster February gaming month, I knew March was going to be pretty huge. Not only was it the great Terminal City Tabletop Convention, but it also captured one day of Bottoscon Winter. It would have been even larger if we hadn’t… Continue Reading “March 2026 Gaming”

Has it been a year already since last year’s Terminal City convention? Why yes, yes it has. This year’s event was still down at the Vancouver Convention Centre on the waterfront, but it changed buildings to a much larger room. This convention-goer approves of… Continue Reading “Terminal City Tabletop Convention Retrospective – 2026”

Now we’ve gone and done it. We’ve now reached the Top 10 games of all time, played by me at least.

We’re starting to get down into the dregs of the Boardgame Geek Top 2000 games. Not dregs in that these are bad games, because considering there are thousands of games in the BGG database, the top 2000 are still fairly highly rated. But just… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 1701 Through 1800”

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”

I want to say that the Alpine expansion for Forest Shuffle was the first one, but I’m not 100% sure.

(100,000 bonus points for anybody who gets the (kind of) movie reference in the title) I’ve been a fan of Forest Shuffle for quite a while, as you can tell from reading my review. This wonderful tableau-building game never really gets old and plays… Continue Reading “Finding a Stranger in the Alps – Forest Shuffle – Alpine Expansion Review”

Being off for almost the entire month of July, I wasn’t expecting much on the gaming front. However, I managed to attended a Wednesday night meet-up a couple of times, which greatly helped take the place of our normal lunchtime games at work, at… Continue Reading “July 2025 Gaming”
