River Valley Glassworks – Board Game Review
Generally, I prefer to play games in person before I start playing them on Board Game Arena. For one thing, I'm much more likely to actually sit down and learn the rules, rather than rely on click-and-pray and letting the computer manage all the rules. But for River...
Argent: The Consortium – Board Game Review
I've been a fan of Level 99 Games for a while now. From Millennium Blades to Bullet❤️, and all of its expansions, I really dig how unique every game of theirs I've played has been. So when I saw Argent: The Consortium in a math trade earlier this year, I hopped on it,...
Blokus 3D – Board Game Review
The way my game group operates, is that we rotate hosting between each member. Whoever's turn it is to host, gets to pick the game(s) we play that evening. Sometimes we finish our game a bit early, so the host gets to break out one of their smaller games to cap off...

The Game Makers – Board Game Review
This review is based on the Board Game Arena implementation. If I had a nickel for every time a board game about making board games came out, I'd have 2 nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's odd that it happened twice in such a short time frame. The first to hit...
My Island – Board Game Review
Spoilers ahead My Island was the hotly anticipated 2023 follow-up to 2020's eminently popular My City, both games designed by Reiner Knizia and published by KOSMOS. This review was 2 years in the making, as my first game of My Island was on October 28th, 2023, and the...
Automobiles: Racing Season – Board Game Review
Automobiles: Racing Season feels like a Monkey's Paw type of expansion. It's something you thought you really wanted, but when it comes to fruition, you're left with regrets. You see, this expansion adds 3 more maps, and a Grand Prix mode where you carry over your...
