The Glory of Misfortune – Schadenfreude Review
You would think with how much I talk up some games on this blog that sometimes I might want to actually submit a formal review of them, right? I mean, I don’t want them to feel bad and left out. It’s like singing the… Continue Reading “The Glory of Misfortune – Schadenfreude Review”
I Predict That I Will Not Win This Game – Seven Prophecies Review
Another day, another trick-taking card game. What are the odds? These days, trick-taking games need some kind of hook to avoid being boring trash. Yeah, I know I’m repeating myself. But it must be emphasized! We’re in the middle of a trick-taking renaissance (thanks,… Continue Reading “I Predict That I Will Not Win This Game – Seven Prophecies Review”
Friday Night Shots – Game Moments That Make You Go “Wow”
I know you keep walking by this bar every Friday night and are constantly amazed when you see the big neon “Open” sign. Especially given my history the last few months. But this is now the fifth weekend in a row where you get… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – Game Moments That Make You Go “Wow””
Friday Night Shots – Cooperative Games

Friday Night Shots – Filler Games
Welcome back to the bar! It’s been a whole five weeks, so sorry about that. One of the kegs exploded and we had beer all over the floor. Spent a number of weeks trying to save as much as possible rather than cleaning it… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – Filler Games”
New to Me – April 2025
While April wasn’t a really full month of games, it was surprisingly full of new to me games! Six new to me games out of the fourteen I played is actually a really good ratio. I love it when months come together like that.… Continue Reading “New to Me – April 2025”
April 2025 Gaming
As expected after last month’s post, where March had a huge number of games because of a convention, April came back down to earth with a much fewer amount of games. However, it was much better than February! Which means it was a good… Continue Reading “April 2025 Gaming”
New to Me – March 2025 – Part 2
Wow, it has been a spell, hasn’t it? With so many new to me games in March, I broke the usual monthly post into two posts, thinking I’d get them done a few days a part. Yeah, I think I got into one of… Continue Reading “New to Me – March 2025 – Part 2”
