July was yet another weird month for games, as I explained in last week’s “games played” post (sorry this one took so long after that). Even with that, I was able to get six new to me games to the table. Granted, three were… Continue Reading “New to Me – July 2023”

(Edit: 8/29/23:) – It’s live! And it’s $81 CDN before shipping.

Trick-taking games are almost becoming a dime a dozen boardgame commodity. There are so many of them out there that there has to be some kind of hook in order to get them noticed. There’s Brian Boru, for example (which I’ll be talking about… Continue Reading “Review – Cat in the Box”

June has been a busy month, and not seemingly conducive to getting new board games played. We missed a Sunday game day (Father’s Day) and for two of the other three Sundays, our main “new games” guy wasn’t able to come. However, we maximized… Continue Reading “New to Me – June 2023”

With Father’s Day coming in June (here’s a link to the Father’s Day post I made in 2019, the first Father’s Day after my dad passed away), meaning that another Sunday Game Day was cancelled (or moved, but I chose to skip it), I… Continue Reading “June 2023 Gaming”

It’s June. I’m amazed that we’re almost half-way through the year already. But it’s also time to look back at May and the gaming that I did (which I did in general already) With Mother’s Day taking up one Sunday, it was another sparse… Continue Reading “New to Me – May 2023”

Ain’t nature grand? I think it is. All of the beautiful landscapes that are out there. Nature photography is some of the best photography out there. And nature games, too! There’s been a bit of a renaissance in nature-themed games in the last few… Continue Reading “Review – Subastral”

As mentioned in my April Gaming post, April was not a banner month for games. Too much time off and missing a regular game day really sank that. It also affected my “new to me” games because I only got two of them played!… Continue Reading “New to Me – April 2023”
