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”

Two weeks and two entries into this list. Maybe I’ll be able to actually do this weekly, unlike in 2022! It was interesting doing a Top 50 rather than a Top 25. Some games have fallen enough that they wouldn’t even be listed if… Continue Reading “Top 50 Games Played of All Time – 2024 Edition (#40-31)”

Happy Friday! I wasn’t sure what would be happening this week. I haven’t really felt in the mood to write much, which is why nothing appeared until my Cat in the Box review earlier today. But enough about writing funks. You’re not here to… Continue Reading “Friday Night shots – House Rules”

(Edit: 6/6/23: It’s live!) It’s rare when I see a “by a bunch of stuff in one bundle” offer come up where I want most of it, so it makes it worth actually taking a look at. That’s changed with the latest announcement from… Continue Reading “4 New Expansions from Alderac Entertainment Group Coming to Kickstarter June 6”

Last weekend, for the first time in almost three years, I actually went to a game convention. COVID really did put a damper on things. SHUX is the Shut Up & Sit Down gaming convention held at the Convention Centre in my home town… Continue Reading “SHUX 2022 Retrospective”
