A good way to keep your game collection trim yet refreshing is to do trades at conventions or "math trades"

I am expecting this game soon that I traded with one of my older games. I am hoping it's decent

I just ordered this one because everyone is talking about how good it is

We'll see

Licensed board games are surprisingly far better than you think

For context, this guy was caught making vague threats over a Kickstarter campaign a few months ago stating he will release negative videos unless he gets paid by the publisher via email.

The past few months have NOT been kind to him or his views

This is why I avoid YT

The same team behind the hegemony game announced another game

As you can tell by the name, they plan on being serious about this topic

After my time with hegemony, easy back from me

After many years in development by one Polack developer, World of Horror is finally hitting 1.0

Why is a board game account talking about a video game?

Let's just say there was some clear inspiration from a board game I used to play back in my early years

The game isn't even out yet...

It's Friday

What board games are you playing this weekend with the family ?

When it comes to game design and execution, board games come out on top

Mobile games are designed to suck your wallet dry and feature anime women that are creepy spank bank material

Video games are horrible due to bugs, poor writing, and unbalanced gameplay

Those are the facts

American Board Games: Heavier than your newborn child

Asian board games: Small enough to put them in a vending machine

The game time for board games is getting shorter and shorter. It's not a surprise since tabletop gaming has to compete with video games, television, and other bits of entertainment.

Before all of that? Long games like anything by Avalon Hill and Axis & Allies were the norm

YES!

I already wrote an article on Risk alternative games but Nexus Ops is *the* Risk Alternative

Build your base, upgrade it, send your bugs and boys out there, collect some victory points, finish secret missions, and roll some dice

- No Thanks

Your mind is a muscle and it will decline over time

It needs to be engaged

This is why strategy and social games are worth the time. It forces you to make choices without stressing it

Gotta remain sharp for a future that isn't slowing down

The classic Istanbul

You are a Turkish merchant pushing goods around to buy some jewels. A simple yet well-designed game. A good mix of skill and luck

Big Boss. It's still damn good

Board gaming needs another Wil Wheaton style playthrough channel

This man gave board gaming a second wind and introduced so many fresh faces to a wonderful industry

From the new Terraforming Mars Kickstarter, I'm not even sure if this is worth the public backlash

A small publisher or one man designer I could understand.

Something that gets over a million in backer money? Bruh

Great timing

In my latest article about Halloween board games, one of the games I recommended is Night Cage

They just announced an expansion for it
