Really sad to hear this. Hoping for the best for the affected employees.
We are just hearing that Greater Than Games has been closed by Flat River Group. Can anyone confirm? Seeking sources.

I've only ever played Final Fantasy Tactics Advance and I felt like it was time to try the full series. FF1 is like curveball after curveball-there's everything in this game!

I've always enjoyed the duration of Akropolis games, and finally got around to playing with the Athena expansion. Interesting way to impact/drive player decisions as mini goals with rewards for completion.

Baseball Highlights 2045 hitting my table today. Such a good, tight deck builder. I wish the base teams weren't so generic but at least it makes it less painful to swap them out with free agents

Mistborn trilogy complete! BS certainly knows how to pummel you with non-stop revelations at the end of a series.

All caught up through book 7 of Dungeon Crawler Carl. I usually exhibit some kind of recency bias with books but for real, the way this story evolves and evokes emotions is way more impactful than you might think during book 1.

I played a demo of Dead Cells at Gen Con last year and thought it was great. Now that it's on BGA and I've been able to chain together a few games...wow this game is so good. Can't wait for more Biomes in April

Arkham Horror is already a beloved board game, but is the associated Starter Set for the RPG from Edge Studio a worthwhile expansion of the universe? Find out in our Meeple Mountain review.

Finished Mistborn 2: Well of Ascension yesterday. Great book, although I liked the first one better due to pacing. Sets up 3 to be a riot, diving in once I'm caught up on podcasts.

Might be recency bias but book 3 of the Dungeon Crawler Carl series is probably my favorite so far. I love when payoff seeds are harvested.
