Reptilian Waves – Surfosaurus MAX Review
In what turned out to be a total coincidence, last week’s Boardgame Geek century post mentioned Surfosaurus MAX and the fact that I wouldn’t mind playing it again and then, four days later, it came out to our Sunday game day! I asked my… Continue Reading “Reptilian Waves – Surfosaurus MAX Review”
BGG Top Games – 3201 – 3300
A short turnaround time after the last post about this, mainly because that post was late! We’re actually getting into sections of the Boardgame Geek rankings where there are some good games that don’t deserve to be this far back, and that is the… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 3201 – 3300”
Mama, She’s Craaazy – Final Girl – Madness in the Dark Review
(1,000,000 quatloos to whoever gets the title reference) The Final Girl franchise has been doing a great job of covering different genres of horror movies, even including some that are more science fiction than horror. With the advent of Madness in the Dark, however,… Continue Reading “Mama, She’s Craaazy – Final Girl – Madness in the Dark Review”
BGG Top Games – 3101 – 3200
It’s been over a week since the last Boardgame Geek century post, but last week was pretty full and I didn’t want to oversaturate the market. I didn’t want my readers to be overwhelmed with awesomness. But we’re back now, looking at another century… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 3101 – 3200”
May 2026 Gaming
May was a busy month! I mean, not March busy, but definitely better than April busy. There was a 14-hour boardgame marathon where I ended up playing 8 games a total of 14 times. Just in one day! Then a couple of Sundays had… Continue Reading “May 2026 Gaming”
New to Me – May 2026
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”
Skipping Through the Moors – Forest Shuffle: Dartmoor Review
It’s always interesting when good games are reimplemented. Will the new one keep the same quality or charm as the previous game? Will it make it better? Is it being designed to correct mistakes from the original? You get that with games like Dune… Continue Reading “Skipping Through the Moors – Forest Shuffle: Dartmoor Review”
I’m Not Talking to You – Games Where You Can’t Communicate
Recently I was watching a boardgame Youtube video about the creator’s top 10 things that they don’t like in games (sorry, I don’t remember who it was or I would link to them). One of these “things he avoids” was “limited communication in games.”… Continue Reading “I’m Not Talking to You – Games Where You Can’t Communicate”
BGG Top Games – 3001 – 3100
It’s Wednesday, the middle of the week, so how about a middle post about Boardgame Geek rankings? I mentioned last week that I’ll keep doing these until I hit a week where I haven’t played anything. That ain’t this week! I should remind folks… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 3001 – 3100”
The Silent Cockpit – Sky Team Review
One of the more recent tropes in cooperative games is the idea that players can’t talk to each other. This removes the alpha gamer issue and also can make the game more interesting. Sometimes, thematically, it makes no sense, but you can’t have everything.… Continue Reading “The Silent Cockpit – Sky Team Review”
