Hidden Jungle Horror – Final Girl – The Green Terror Review
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
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
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
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
(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”
BGG Top Games – 3001 – 3100
It’s Wednesday, the middle of the week, so how about a middle post about Boardgame Geek rankings? I mentioned last week that I’ll keep doing these until I hit a week where I haven’t played anything. That ain’t this week! I should remind folks… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 3001 – 3100”
Violent Conventions – Final Girl – Shriek Review
One of the cool things about how the whole Final Girl franchise (from Van Ryder Games) has come about is that each group of feature films is tied into a series, with the occasional vignette or special feature. That appears to be coming to… Continue Reading “Violent Conventions – Final Girl – Shriek Review”
BGG Top Games – 2801-2900
Doing these weekly posts about these centuries of “top games” on Boardgame Geek have often been interesting because of the conversations they’ve sparked with friends and fans. But they’ve also been interesting because I’ve seen some unexpected movement in the games I’m seeing. For… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 2801-2900”
BGG Top Games – 2601-2700
I hope you’re enjoying my weekly look at games ranked on Boardgame Geek that aren’t in the Top 1000. I know I’m enjoying writing them, because I love the discussion they can cause (though sadly not last week, because I left two hooks in… Continue Reading “BGG Top Games – 2601-2700”
