Played in February, including 12 new ones! Rebirth and Finspan were definitely the highlights on the table each of their game nights. (Split the grid between in-person and digital this time.) #boardgames #bgstats

Some January 2025 #BGStats! First plays of Arcs, Last Light, and Stardew Valley were awesome. All that Harmonies play was both in-person and on BGA - I just wanted to keep playing it. #boardgames

At some point, ask if the Mega-lorian is carrying too many gadgets. #StarWars

While stats were only kept in the second half of 2024, I'm super happy with this Year in Review! A ton of new games played and some very cool people to play them with.

#FirstPlay of Everdell Duo ended in a tie with 56 points each... and with @allayva.bsky.social taking the tiebreaker. #boardgames

(Hopefully) on the way to #PAXU.

An awesome month for #boardgames, with some recurring favorites and new games mixed in. Flourish landed on the table a lot, tried out Stamp Swap for the first time, and dug into Prelude 2 for Terraforming Mars. This will likely look much different after next week's #PAXUnplugged adventure.

Friendly little dragons ready for an adventure in town! #boardgames #flamecraft

Had a good time catching Wild Area Pokémon during the event yesterday with @allayva.bsky.social and a bunch of Buffalo's trainers! It's great to have enough people for those massive Gigantamax raids. #pokemongo

Game 2? Lost it, but look at these shiny rare stamps up in the corner.

First games of #StampSwap at the FLGS tonight! Game #1 ended in a tie, broken by a single rare stamp.

It was really fun! Only a few new Mars corporations, but we got really into the "theme" of the ones we picked to play. This was my favorite flavor text.

New corporations *think* they can thrive on Mars. First Prelude 2 playthrough tonight. #TerraformingMars #BoardGames

Alternate universe Sabres game.

Quieter month of #BoardGames, likely due to playing nearly a dozen games of Dune: Imperium digitally. All the same, some awesome evenings!

#BoardGames played in September 2024. Camel Up was surprisingly funny, and especially great with seven players. Twilight Inscription and Project L were the first-plays I thought most about.

Hey hey. Adding to the big news feed of numbers with this one.

The United Nations Mars Initiative prevailed, mainly on the back of botany and biodiversity.

It's the UNMI up against Cheung Shing Mars in Elysium.
