A Gaming Life
Just a brief post today because I saw something that I found very cool on Boardgame Geek and I felt I had to share. What is a micro-expansion? Micro-expansions are a set of cards or some other small piece of an already-published game that… Continue Reading “Alderac Micro-Expansions Looking Really Cool”
Late last year came the news that Alderac Entertainment Group (AEG) and The OP (formerly USAOpoly) were joining forces to bring licensed characters to the Smash Up universe. Finally, yesterday, the announcement came as to what the first team-up will actually be: Smash Up: Marvel.… Continue Reading “AEG & The OP bring Marvel Comics to Smash Up”
Wow, two Smash Up expansion reviews in two weeks? After a months-long hiatus? What can that mean? It means that I’ve been combining new expansions while playing them for review. What, did you think I meant global annihilation or something like that? Let’s save that… Continue Reading “Expansion Review – Smash Up: Monster Smash”
It’s been a few months since I’ve done a Smash Up expansion review. Between the Christmas holidays and work stuff getting the way, it’s taken a while to get the required three plays in to review the first of the five new expansions I… Continue Reading “Expansion Review – Smash Up: Awesome Level 9000”
Yesterday, I received an email from Nomad Gamesthat made me very excited. No, it wasn’t a new Talisman: Origins expansion or anything like (though I do love getting early access to those!). No, they announced that the Smash Up app is going to be… Continue Reading “Nomad Games to Add a New Expansion to Smash Up App”
I saw an interesting post on the Smash Up Facebook group the other day. It was a link to a post on the AEG (Alderac Entertainment Group) blog by CEO John Zinser regarding their policy on expansions in 2020 and beyond. Last year, AEG made… Continue Reading “AEG Adjusts its Views on Expansions”
Once again I happen to be current in regards to having new Smash Up expansions! Even though this review is four months after my last expansion review (blame Abomination: Heir of Frankenstein for that one, since it held up my pre-order for two whole months!) Makes… Continue Reading “Expansion Review – Smash Up World Tour: Culture Shock”
Being as much of a Smash Up fan as I am, you know I couldn’t pass up commenting on this one. Alderac Entertainment Group (AEG) and The Op (formerly USAopoly) are teaming up to bring new licensed factions to the hit card game (and… Continue Reading “AEG & The OP team up for future Smash Up expansions”
Another day (ok, month), another Smash Up expansion. You’d think that was all I played. Granted, it does get played twice a month because of a regular workplace get-together, but I do play more games than that! With two expansions a year, there doesn’t… Continue Reading “Expansion Review – Smash Up: That 70s Expansion”
I can’t believe I missed this. This blog could almost be called the Smash Up blog (especially after last week’s review of the first World Tour expansion) but yet somehow this news escaped me. Yes, I already knew (and probably mentioned) that the next World… Continue Reading “World Tour: Culture Shock Coming Soon”
