First game of Thanksgiving. Place tiles and create stories to help remember their location. A lovely cooperative game.

Emberleaf is a super cute, pretty darn thinky and lots of fun board game. Very much enjoyed my first play.

I took a nearly 6 year hiatus from interviewing board game artists but it's been a real honor to pick it back up again and share the stories of such talented humans.

Super pleased to have shared 12 new interviews this year, with lots more in the pipeline when time allows!

You might think I'm a big board gamer, but my wife is even more so.

During PAXU she's been sharing photos of the games she's bought, played and can't wait to share with me.

Getting hyped for a December full of good humans and great games.

Have I played many games at PAX Unpugged? Nope.

Have I got to see countless amazing humans for hugs and long overdue catch-ups? YES.

I love board games, but people make conventions.

The Indie Games Night Market was amazing to see. So many creatives, and so many people showing up interested and excited to buy the things they make.

Support your local/non-local indie creators folks.
Indie Games Market last night was a rousing success!!!!

WOW. I’m so impressed by all of the vendors organization and skill.

I’m sure we’ll be able together get stats from the PAX team, but this year definitely felt way bigger 🧵 🎲✂️

A question for those who play #BoardGames with their families.
What's a cooperative board game I could order in time for Thanksgiving and force my family to play together? Not PANDEMIC please.

If you're a family member, you didn't see this.

As I get older (it's happening to you too!) I'm trying to take better care of myself.

I decided to start going to the gym in 2022, and just hit 250 workouts!

While I'm not setting any records, the consistency has helped my mental health and physical well-being. Who knew moving was good for you?

Hi, I hate doing self promo so I'll just say that this indie board game coverage channel that could is about to hit a milestone of sorts.

There is no skeet that can summarize who we are or what we do, but we do cool work and you should check us out. www.youtube.com/@NoPunIncluded

I've been running a board game event for almost a year, and a new attendee asked me this question.

"Why do you run this event? Are you launching something?"

They were so surprised that I spent my time and money running an event with no goal other than fostering community. It's so rare now.

Board games are art. ETERNAL DECKS combines the ancient with the modern through design. It's a stunner; it's also a heck of a game. See for yourself.

Back to back to 5 player games of Dead of Winter. I survived the apocalypse both times with plenty of drama unfolding along the way.
