Friday Night Shots – Expansions Revisited

Grand Austria Hotel - Waltz

I know I’ve talked about expansions before on Friday Night Shots (both ones you won’t play again and whether or not you even like them to begin with), but a recent post on Boardgame Geek prompted another thought that I wanted to explore. Somebody… Continue Reading “Friday Night Shots – Expansions Revisited”

BGG Top Games – 3901-4000

Skies Above Britain

We’ve reached the 4000 mark in the BGG top ranked games list, and this century I have to say is one of the worst as far as my familiarity with any of the games goes. We haven’t hit the “I don’t know any of… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 3901-4000”

Keep Quiet or You’re Dead – Final Girl – Don’t Make a Sound Review

Final Girl - Don't Make a Sound - Sand Snakes Miniature

The Final Girl series of solo horror games has had a bunch of different kinds of artwork in its various feature films, but they’ve all been similar in some fashion. You can tell they’re be different artists, but you can also tell that they’re… Continue Reading “Keep Quiet or You’re Dead – Final Girl – Don’t Make a Sound Review”

BGG Top Games – 3701 – 3800

Almoravid - Calendar

Some of these “top BGG Games” posts are a little lean on games that I’ve played, though I really enjoy that because we can then spend more time talking about games that it would be cool to play! If there are any in that… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 3701 – 3800”

Hidden Jungle Horror – Final Girl – The Green Terror Review

Final Girl - The Green Terror - Map

One of the conceits with the whole Final Girl franchise of dice-rolling, solo horror games, is that you and your character are the typical “final girl” in various horror films, the one who watches everybody die around her but she ends up defeating the… Continue Reading “Hidden Jungle Horror – Final Girl – The Green Terror Review”

BGG Top Games – 3601 – 3700

Minigolf Designer - Course

One reason I love doing these Boardgame Geek century posts about games that are ranked fairly far down is that I get to explore games that are kind of outside the mainstream. And also, most likely, games that I haven’t played in quite a… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 3601 – 3700”

Corny Terror – Final Girl – A Rotten Harvest Review

Final Girl - A Rotten Harvest - Children

I grew up in a state that was full of corn fields, though I never actually experienced running through them in terror, being stalked by some creature of existential dread or anything like that. You know, like Steve King. (Editor: “Only a certain subset… Continue Reading “Corny Terror – Final Girl – A Rotten Harvest Review”

BGG Top Games – 3401 – 3500

Dandelions - Scoring 2

Another short turnaround time for this Boardgame Geek century of games post, because I have another Friday Night Shots post ready to go, so I didn’t want this to go out on Friday too. You all are getting so lucky with these! Or at… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 3401 – 3500”

Terror in the Abbey – Final Girl – A Demon in the Shadows Review

Don’t you hate it when you’re just minding your own business, sitting serenely in some kind of religious building, praying and all of that stuff, and then suddenly a demon comes in and possesses you, forcing you to do unspeakable things to all of… Continue Reading “Terror in the Abbey – Final Girl – A Demon in the Shadows Review”

Mama, She’s Craaazy – Final Girl – Madness in the Dark Review

Final Girl - Madness in the Dark - Maniacs in your space

(1,000,000 quatloos to whoever gets the title reference) The Final Girl franchise has been doing a great job of covering different genres of horror movies, even including some that are more science fiction than horror. With the advent of Madness in the Dark, however,… Continue Reading “Mama, She’s Craaazy – Final Girl – Madness in the Dark Review”
