3 Witches – Board Game Review
Disclaimer - A copy of 3 Witches was provided by the designer One of the things I love about trick-taking games is how effortlessly they get to the table. You generally get a deck of cards and deal most if not all the cards out. The teach is usually something along...
7 Wonders Dice – Board Game Review
Disclaimer: This review is based on plays of 7 Wonders Dice on Board Game Arena. Ah, the roll and write. First comes a successful board game. Then comes the card game version. Then comes the roll and write cash in. 7 Wonders is no different, albeit it's taken quite a...
Beyond the Sun – Board Game Review
Growing up, I was a console gamer. I didn't really have a game-worthy PC until after 2010, meaning I skipped over a lot of the old PC favourites, one important one being the Civilization franchise. That is to say, tech trees are not a part of my gaming background. I'm...
Schotten Totten – Board Game Review

Popcorn – Board Game Review
This review is based off my plays on Board Game Arena. If I play it in person in the future and my opinions change, I'll be sure to amend this review. I'm a sucker for a good theme, and there are few themes that connect with me better than Movie theatres. Back in my...
Zenith – Board Game Review
Zenith makes a strong first impression before you even touch a card. It’s bright and cheerful in a way sci-fi games rarely are, usually they're leaning into the darkness of space to inform their aesthetic, see Beyond the Sun or Race for the Galaxy for examples. Zenith...
Bomb Busters – Board Game Review
Remember Minesweeper? Ever since I was a little kid, I was the type of person to press every button, look in every file, check every setting. When our school go it's first Windows 95 computer, my inquisitive nature was rewarded with finding Minesweeper. Now, I'm...
