I work so I can buy more boardgames
January plays.

I finally got Crisps (and Dickory along with a few other games I purchased) from @dnlnwmn.bsky.social and I immediately know Crisps is going to be a top list game for 2026. Can't get enough.

I may have found my favorite trick-taking game with a trump suit.

I did it!

These are my non-digital plays of the year and I managed to play a physical board game every single day of 2025!

I basically did a full year #spielmas

Last day of the year and the sixth and last day of #spielmas

Three different games played. Two making a reappearance but one new.

So concludes my first Spielmas. It's been fun and a very good way to end this spectacular year.

December plays. After the November injury I finally got back to a large amount of daily plays second half of December but still managed a daily play in December.

Fifth day of #spielmas and I'm back at 3 different games but only one making a reoccurrence.

Now there's only one day left of Spielmas and one day left of the year and then a big reveal as to why spielmas was pretty special to me this year.

Fourth day of #spielmas and what a day. Five different games played. We're gonna need a bigger hexagon.

Size of game components does not reflect size of game but there are a few very obscure games this time around.

Third day of #spielmas and yet again three different games. One game makes a comeback from the first day of spielmas but the other two are new.

The second day of #spielmas saw three different games played but no repeat games from the first day (also two of these were solo).

I'm in the homestretch of a special board game year. What better way to celebrate it than by participating in #spielmas

On this first day of spielmas I played three different games.

I just got my hands on my first @marcelineleiman.bsky.social design - the solo variant of The Hobbit: There and Back Again

I am very interested to know the idea behind the design and why it was designed in this way because it is very different from what I expected

Just gave myself a holiday gift, a subscription to @senetmagazine.bsky.social I've been meaning to get for a long time (since I found out about Senet magazine about a year ago).

Also backordered all the previous issues so you'll find me in my reading chair all of next year.

Exciting!

I just registered for Spiel@Sea next year. Two weeks of board gaming and making friends while visiting Spain, Azores and Bermuda 🛳

A broken collarbone followed by surgery did not stop me from playing a game every day of November.

A Gentle Rain was the perfect game to get me through my injuries and recovery.

Watching Matthew describe his board game injury while waiting for surgery, I realized my broken collarbone is a board game injury and also a bruised board game ego because I broke it when I slipped on ice trying not to be late to play... Bingo

My October was longer than yours. According to #bgstats I played a game 32 days in October.

Got to play a variety of games at Spiel and played during the DST changes (where I suspect the 32nd day comes from).

I'm probably late to the game but I just found out about @aftergame.app

I have needed a website or an app to organize boardgame nights and events and it seems to be everything I hoped for and more.

Now to get more people to sign up 🤔

I have been listening to "1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die". Sometimes while soloing a boardgame.

What I can tell you is that even if I don't like Arkham Horror the boardgame, I like it even less with The Visitors by ABBA as a soundtrack.

I've now gone through the solo mode for Forest Shuffle (from Exploration) three times; With the base game, with Alpine expansion, and with Alpine + Woodland Edge.

I've discovered new strategies and powerful forest friends.

Loved it!
Well done @lookoutgames.bsky.social

My September plays. Forest Shuffle still at the top thanks to the Exploration solo mode.

I'm now going into the last quarter of the year and have played a (physical copy) boardgame every day of 2025 so far.

Solo played Until Proven Guilty from DV Games.

I don't recommend the game for its price even if the production is great. Weirdly the components are of too high quality for a one off play.

I think they could have done something like Final Girl (core box + cases).

Everything is relative.

I guess most people think they'd have played a lot if they managed 70 plays in a year.

To me, playing only 70 times in a month is on the lower side (I was traveling which explains it)

Forest Shuffle from @lookoutgames.bsky.social continued its reign in July thanks to the solo mode in Exploration.

Kingsbridge, the competitive solitaire from Wolfgang Kramer and @kosmosgamesuk.bsky.social that I randomly bought at a sale, got closest to toppling it.

I just finished watching the #marvel Ironheart series.

So, of course I had to play a game of Marvel Champions:

Ironheart vs The Hood

Got a little hooked on Forest Shuffle with the new Exploration expansion from @lookoutgames.bsky.social

But on average a different game played every day of the month.

That completes a half a year of daily physical plays. It'll be fun to try and finish a whole year.
