Travelling on 3 Cards a Day

Let's Go to Japan - Box

I’ve never been to Japan. I hear it’s a fun place to visit, but that hasn’t been me yet. While Let’s Go to Japan will not give you the feel of travelling to Japan, it will give you the feeling of planning your trip!… Continue Reading “Travelling on 3 Cards a Day”

Evolving to the End of the World

Doomlings - box

There’s something to be said for cute, family-weight games. Sure, they aren’t always super-exciting, exercising your brain in the way that may keep it active until you’re 100 like some of the heavier games might. But they’re cute! Doomlings is definitely the cute, family-weight… Continue Reading “Evolving to the End of the World”

New to Me – July 2024

I knew July would be a bit of an off month for gaming, but it wasn’t too bad. However, it didn’t really hit the “new to me games” jackpot, with only three of them to write about. Funny how it’s still taken me longer… Continue Reading “New to Me – July 2024”

New to Me – June 2024

Shipyard - ship pieces

May was a really boring month for new to me games, so much so that I was wondering how I could correct that for June. How about seven? No, that’s no my winning lotto number, though it should be. That’s how many new games… Continue Reading “New to Me – June 2024”

Friday Night Shots – Modular Expansions & Stories

Shadow Kingdoms of Valeria - Rise of Titans - Great Battles

It’s vacation time! Today was my last day of work for 4 weeks, and wow has this been needed. I’m hoping that my blog output will increase a bit this month as I have more mental capacity to actually write. But we’ll see what… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – Modular Expansions & Stories”

Fantastic Factories – Storage Solution from Folded Space

Fantastic Factories - Folded Space trays

There’s just something about a really neat storage solution for games. Sure, baggies are fine, and you can just turn the box upside down and drop a bunch of baggies onto the table for everybody to sort out. They work…ok. And it’s not the… Continue Reading “Fantastic Factories – Storage Solution from Folded Space”

May 2024 Gaming

13 - BG Stats - May 2024 - Grid

May seemed like a really dead month for gaming. Hell, we missed out on two Sunday game days (Mother’s Day and a marathon the week before) so I thought it was going to be almost as bad as April. When I looked at my… Continue Reading “May 2024 Gaming”

Review – Claim

Claim - Box

Two-player trick-taking games are odd ducks. I mean, not Cobra Chicken odd ducks. Nothing compares to them. But they are odd in their own way. They always have to have some kind of neat twist because otherwise it’s just two players laying down cards… Continue Reading “Review – Claim”

April 2024 Gaming

After a really full March, where it seemed like I played one game a day (ok, that’s only if you average it out, but still), April was a wasteland for gaming, sadly. Missing two Sundays, not as many games during lunch at work (if… Continue Reading “April 2024 Gaming”

Review – Villages of Valeria

Villages of Valeria - Tableau

There’s a certain attraction to families of games out there, though it’s funny how there aren’t as many as you would think there are. When I say “families,” I’m speaking of games that are based in the same universe, though the mechanics and style… Continue Reading “Review – Villages of Valeria”
