January 2025 Gaming
It’s a new year! And already we’re 1/12 of the way through it. Who would have thought it would go that fast? It’s also a new year of boardgaming, which means everything I played this month is actually unique to 2025! Unless I played… Continue Reading “January 2025 Gaming”
This is a Prince-Free Bash – Rebel Princess Review
I’ve been on a trick-taking tear recently, though that’s not necessarily reflected in my reviews (getting them played is another thing). I have been buying a bunch of them, though. One of them that I’ve actually played enough to review recently is a rather… Continue Reading “This is a Prince-Free Bash – Rebel Princess Review”
Top 10 New to Me Games of 2024
I’ve been writing this blog for almost 8 years now, doing a monthly “new to me” post for just as long (it started in April 2017, but it was about March’s games!), and I often do “best games played” of the year if I’m… Continue Reading “Top 10 New to Me Games of 2024”
New to Me – December 2024
It’s a new year, and coming up on my 8th blog anniversary in March! One thing I forgot to mention in yesterday’s Blog in Review post was the fact that, in those 8 years (or at least since I started, which I think was… Continue Reading “New to Me – December 2024”
Lifting the Vale – Vale of Eternity Review
There’s something about relatively quick card games that just grabs me. I’m not sure what it is, other than getting the chance to play a bunch of games in a game day, maybe? However, card games can become a bit rote with small variations… Continue Reading “Lifting the Vale – Vale of Eternity Review”
Let’s See What’s Out There – Faraway Review
Today’s review has its roots in a couple of recent posts by me, though I’ve been wanting to review it for a while now. Faraway is a card game designed by Johannes Goupy and Corentin Lebrat with artwork by Maxime Morin. It was published… Continue Reading “Let’s See What’s Out There – Faraway Review”
Friday Night Shots – Lunch Time Games
Welcome back to the bar! I know it’s Saturday. So sue me. It’s been a couple of weeks, but we got flooded last week so I couldn’t open the bar up at all. I saw you looking through the window wondering why the door… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – Lunch Time Games”
New to Me – November 2024
At last, almost a week late, one of the probably longest posts I’ve written, because there are so many freakin’ games on it! Yes, this is the list of the eleven (!) new to me games I played in November 2024. December is not… Continue Reading “New to Me – November 2024”
Two-Steppin’ in the Woods – Forest Shuffle Review
Tableau-building card games are becoming all the rage. Or maybe they’ve been the rage and I just never noticed? (Editor: “Doesn’t say much for your observational skills, does it?”) One thing I haven’t seen much of, however, are tableau-building games where you are combining… Continue Reading “Two-Steppin’ in the Woods – Forest Shuffle Review”
Bottoscon 2024 Retrospective
Once again in November I was able to attend Bottoscon, the largest wargaming convention in the Pacific Northwest. This year, they managed to get over 150 attendees, which is amazing considering that when they began 18 years ago, they had 32 attendees. The convention… Continue Reading “Bottoscon 2024 Retrospective”
