The Beauty of Northwest Tiles – Cascadia App Review
(this is going to be a review of both the game and the app, since I’ve played the tabletop game a bunch too) There’s something peaceful about a good tile-laying game where everybody is creating their own habitat for God’s natural wonders, both flora… Continue Reading “The Beauty of Northwest Tiles – Cascadia App Review”
Salty Origami – Sea Salt & Paper Review
As I spoke about on Saturday, the word “filler” for a game is often seen as derogatory, when it really shouldn’t be. Some fillers are really great! Many card games are filler games, and one really juicy one (though it does feel a bit… Continue Reading “Salty Origami – Sea Salt & Paper Review”
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”
Exploring the Underworld – Faraway: People From Below review
Some expansions for games make huge changes to it, maybe fixing something from the base game or giving new avenues to win the game. Maybe the Mask strategy is really weak and this expansion makes it stronger? Some expansions just add a bit more… Continue Reading “Exploring the Underworld – Faraway: People From Below review”
New to Me – March 2025 – Part 1
As I mentioned in my March Games played post, I played a lot of games last month. Not only that, but a whole 14 of them were new to me! That means this post would be monstrously long if I tried to pack it… Continue Reading “New to Me – March 2025 – Part 1”
March 2025 Gaming
I knew March was going to be a big month for gaming, considering the Terminal City Tabletop Convention weekend. However, I had no idea how big it would be! Last month, I had 20 plays of 14 different games, and I thought it was… Continue Reading “March 2025 Gaming”
Like Sands Through the Hourglass – Sandbag Review
Trick-taking card games are no longer “dime a dozen” examples of games just quickly designed and then thrown out the door to the teeming masses (though really, up until a little while ago, were there teeming masses for trick-taking games?). Now they all involve… Continue Reading “Like Sands Through the Hourglass – Sandbag Review”
