Lots of new followers despite barely having time to play games nowadays, let alone post.

Just in case we're pulling followers for the wrong reasons, let's make it clear:

Five HP. We were five HP from finally beating the darn Martian Invader in @restorationgames.bsky.social's Unmatched Adventures.

Jeez, it had been nearly four years since we played Calico as a family, although The Kid played digitally w/ @annamariaphelps.bsky.social... whoa, three years ago?!

This is our first family play in a month as life keeps interfering. Mom crushed us.

Mom thinks hard during a play of Calico, a board game where you create quilts for cats to sleep on.

Happy new year!

Our unfortunate annual tradition of a COVID Christmas is over, so we're back to playing games again. Also, Grandma came out for a visit!

Playing a board game called Typewriter. The Cardboard Kid and Mom are on the left; grandma's on the right. Playing one of the Harley Quinn tables in the latest Super-Skill Pinball release. The Cardboard Mom's on the left, and Kid's in the middle. Grandma's to the right. Grandma (right) 'helps' The Cardboard Kid in Car Wars 6e, but it's unnecessary. The Kid's won every game she's played. Mom (left) is in the process of rolling dice.

Darn you, Martian Invader! To be fair, the Jersey Devil may have been the bigger thorn in our side.

Board game photo dump from last weekend. A world event kinda took the wind out of our sails, so we needed another brief social media break.

Hopefully you are all doing well!

Games are Unmatched Adventures (pictures 1 and 2), and Freedom Five.

Can you believe people actually play #boardgames? This one is called Typewriter.

Typewriter, a recently-released board game, is played by a family. One player is in the process of drawing a letter key.
