Expansion Review – Smash Up: That 70s Expansion
Another day (ok, month), another Smash Up expansion. You’d think that was all I played. Granted, it does get played twice a month because of a regular workplace get-together, but I do play more games than that! With two expansions a year, there doesn’t… Continue Reading “Expansion Review – Smash Up: That 70s Expansion”
World Tour: Culture Shock Coming Soon
I can’t believe I missed this. This blog could almost be called the Smash Up blog (especially after last week’s review of the first World Tour expansion) but yet somehow this news escaped me. Yes, I already knew (and probably mentioned) that the next World… Continue Reading “World Tour: Culture Shock Coming Soon”
Expansion Review – Smash Up: International Incident
It’s hard to quantify just how much enjoyment Smash Up has given to me, especially in the middle of a long work day when it’s just fun to sit down with two co-workers and try (and usually fail) to kick their asses. In a… Continue Reading “Expansion Review – Smash Up: International Incident”

Review – Arboretum
Imagine you really love trees, so much so that you want to build your own place to house them. To look at them. To love them. Say you’re walking through your forest of trees, when you are suddenly attacked by a bunch of ninjas… Continue Reading “Review – Arboretum”
The Rival Networks Coming from Formal Ferret Games
Quick news post today (I promise a review is coming later this week). Long-time readers know of my love for The Networks (designed by Gil Hova). Not only did I give it a glowing review, but it made it into my Top 5 games… Continue Reading “The Rival Networks Coming from Formal Ferret Games”
Ascension – Skulls & Sails Coming in May
I’m a huge Ascension fan, maybe partially because it helped get me back into the whole gaming scene but also because it’s just a fun little deckbuilder. It’s hard to believe it’s been around since 2010 and there are literally tons of expansions (Editor – That could… Continue Reading “Ascension – Skulls & Sails Coming in May”
Review – Dual Powers: Revolution 1917
World War I and the Soviet takeover of Russia have always been fascinating historical topics for me. I’m a historian by education and desire, if not by trade. While I’m sure there have been some games that cover the Russian Revolution, Dual Powers: Revolution 1917… Continue Reading “Review – Dual Powers: Revolution 1917”
