It’s Moving Through the Vents! – Final Girl – Into the Void Review
One of the classic horror movie franchises is the Alien series, or at least the first one. The second one, I would almost count as an intense action movie with some horror elements. And then things got silly. Anyway, it’s not surprising that the… Continue Reading “It’s Moving Through the Vents! – Final Girl – Into the Void Review”
New to Me – October 2025
October was a really lean month for new to me games, with only two getting done! That will change in November with Bottoscon coming up, but October was almost a wasteland. However, the Cult of the New to Me was happy because, while one… Continue Reading “New to Me – October 2025”
October 2025 Gaming
Who knew that after my 1000th post celebration, the next one would just be a regular “hey, what did Dave play last month?” post? In other words, we’re back to normal. The cake has been eaten, the ado has been stored so nobody can… Continue Reading “October 2025 Gaming”
Gambling With Success – The Gang Review
Poker can be a really hardcore game, and quite cutthroat too. Bluffing your opponents into thinking you have an unbeatable hand when you have nothing but crap is a mainstay of the game. Why is he betting so much on that flop? But what… Continue Reading “Gambling With Success – The Gang Review”
Living on the Edge – Forest Shuffle – Woodland Edge Expansion Review
I want to say that the Alpine expansion for Forest Shuffle was the first one, but I’m not 100% sure. That one (as I mentioned in my review) helped by adding a few different cards that mitigated some other favoured strategies in the base… Continue Reading “Living on the Edge – Forest Shuffle – Woodland Edge Expansion Review”
Finding a Stranger in the Alps – Forest Shuffle – Alpine Expansion Review
(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”
Have Fun Storming the Castle! – Castle Combo Review
One of the really common things about our Sunday game days, unless we are playing a couple of really deep games that take too much time, is to have 30-45 minutes left after the main game and then trying to decide if we should… Continue Reading “Have Fun Storming the Castle! – Castle Combo Review”
New to Me – September 2025
I love months where I play a bunch of games that I have no experience with. September gaming was great for the number of plays, but even better for the new to me games that I got to play! I especially love it when… Continue Reading “New to Me – September 2025”
Real-Time Heroes – 5 Minute Marvel Review
I’m not a huge fan of real-time games, mainly because my brain doesn’t make decisions that quickly and thus I often find myself behind everybody else. Cooperative games can be a little different, because everybody’s trying to help each other and you’re not competing… Continue Reading “Real-Time Heroes – 5 Minute Marvel Review”
Stop Stealing My Stuff! – Cover Your Assets review
Some people don’t like “take that” games, where you are actively trying to harm your opponent (not literally, of course, unless you’re playing a game in some action movie against a mad villain who has made this a kill or be killed situation). These… Continue Reading “Stop Stealing My Stuff! – Cover Your Assets review”
