I’m suddenly looking forward to 2025. Interested to see if I’m the smacker or the smackee.

Playing a two handed solo learning game of Nevada City. The Secret Cabal Gaming Podcast mentioned the game in a recent episode and rekindles my interest.

Some photos from the inaugural @SplotterCon. The library contained every published Splotter and all of them were played over the weekend. Super cool swag with the opportunity to buy a special Con version of Dr’af and a Roads & Boats scenario book. Can’t wait until next year! #splotter #boardgames

Tawantinsuyu with all the modules from The Golden Age expansion. Playing solo against Pachamama. I have to admit this game intimidates me. It was on my trade/sell pile for over a year and I decided since it was still in my collection I was going to give it a proper chance. Wish me luck.

I’ve been reshaping my collection since December. 35 games out 25 games in. These are 4 of the new arrivals and a pretty snazzy game mat.

I heard about Oltree on The Secret Cabal Gaming Podcast and thought it sounded interesting. It's mainly a cooperative game, but I'm trying it solo after reading the rules and watching some videos.

Revisiting an underrated solo variant. Rick Royal and Tony Boydell did a great job with the Boris variant for Guilds of London.

A decent Goodwill find. A couple in my game group found this for $9 and were kind enough to give it to me as a gift. I never find any games of quality on my visits to Goodwill. Any else have luck?
