Got my review copy of The Vibe by Jacob Jaskov from Uloomi. Looks like an interesting game. Review some time next year. 🥳👍 #boardgames

Post a perfect album from the 90s that isn't Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, or Alice In Chains.

I’m so chuffed to have been given review copies of Roller Disco, a clever shedding game which is due to come to crowdfunding early next year, and Tricky Landing, a trick-taking game with a dexterity twist. Both are from @huffnomore.bsky.social and I’ll review them soon. 😃👍 #boardgames #CardGames

Crisps! by Shreesh Bhat from Little Dog Games with art by Sai Beppu is a really cool 2-player climbing card game. I especially love the double-sided crisp packet point cards: one packet is one point, two packets is two points. You win when you have three points. Very clever product design. 😃👍

The Grand Trunk Journey by Claude Sirois from @ulible.bsky.social with art by Harald Lieske is great fun, isn't it? I can't believe I haven't played it until now. 😃👍 #boardgames #TrainGames

I love it when publishers put paper belly bands around decks of cards, like here in Battalion: War of the Ancients by Paolo Mori and Francesco Sirocchi from @ospreygames.bsky.social with art by the wonderful @rolandsrevenge.bsky.social. 🙂👍 #boardgames #sustainability

Ayar by @flopiano.bsky.social and @mandelafg.bsky.social from @ospreygames.bsky.social with art by @ianotoole.bsky.social is a real point salad. You can’t do everything and need to keep two score tracks in balance all at the same time. I’m quite enjoying it. 🙂👍 #boardgames

The Druids of Edora by Stefan Feld from Alea is a fun point salad of resource management and dice placement and various other mechanisms. Unfortunately, the English rulebook is awful. I had to revert to the German one to make sense of it all. 😕👍 #boardgame

Can’t Stop by Sid Sackson is always fun, but the Sain-Am Peak edition from Platye makes the game extra special. Staying with the theme of mountain climbing, we decided to follow up with Tranquility: The Ascent by James Emmerson from @luckduckgames.bsky.social. 😃👍 #boardgames
