Top 100 Video Games of All Time – #40 – #31
I think this is the point in the list where I’m starting to list games that I can get a little obsessive over. Either a rougelike that hooks me and makes me dive deep, or just a fantastic adventure in the case of Zelda and Donkey Kong. There are times where any of these games could be higher on a certian day, but hey. On the day that I made this list, this is where the chips fell.
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 evening. Such was the case the other day when Blokus 3D hit the table.
Final Fantasy Tactics
If you ask “What is the best Final Fantasy game?”, or read any Final Fantasy games tier-list or top list, you’ll find Final Fantasy VI and Final Fantasy VII most often cited as the best Final Fantasy games every. Along side those two, many will also cite Final Fantasy Tactics, even if you’re not really talking about spin-off games. The cult following that adores Final Fantasy Tactics is strong and pervasive.
Super Dice Battle – Board Game Review
In Super Dice Battle, players take control of one of the four asymmetric characters, and engage in real time combo building. Using D8’s, you roll your dice, then you can commit one of those die results to one of your combos. Then, keep rolling your dice! When someone completes an attack combo, they shout out “COMBO!” to stop everyone else from rolling. They designate a target, roll the Combo dice to determine damage, the target has a chance to resolve a defense combo, if they have one queued up, then, play continues.

Top 100 Video Games of All Time – #60 – #51
Almost at the halfway point! It’s at this point that I start to feel fatigued with these lists, but once I break past the halfway point, I pick up enthusiasm again. It’s not that I’m unenthusiastic about any of the games that have come so far, it’s just that the top 50 are really a cut above all the rest. I also have to purposefully stop myself from just skipping right to the top 10!
Dorfromantik: The Duel – Board Game Review
I suppose I should state my experience with the extended Dorfromantik universe upfront. I’ve played the video game for about 2 hours, but I have not played the first board game. Dorfromantik: The Duel is the two player competitive follow-up to the 2023 Spiel des Jahres winning board game. Designed by Michael Palm and Lukas Zach with art by Paul Riebe, and published by Pegasus Spiele in 2023, this version of the game was perhaps the game that most people were expecting when sitting down to play Dorfromantik.
