With Stamp Swap we did it, we're officially in the part of the hobby we can call Nerdception, a hobby within a hobby. You could try to argue that Wingspan was maybe the first, but it was about birds and not bird watching. Now with Jamey bringing in Stamp Swap to Stonemaier games, we finally have a nerdy hobby, wrapped up in another nerdy hobby and you're possibly Leonardo DiCaprio, or one of the other ninja turtles. I don't know. I'm not a nerd.  I'm not a nerd. But I would be philatered if you maybe called me one. Or I would tell you to stop flirting and show me your collection. You ..read more

Sankoré is like a symphony. An orchestra laid out before you with its different parts and sections. You're standing in front of the conductor's music stand, notation sitting in bars and treble clefs and bass notes with 7/8 and 3/4 and forté and you would be forgive for thinking it's maybe all a bit too much at once. None of it really makes sense and yet everyone is looking at you to make sure they know how to play, and secondly, you've got to make sure that everyone has the best of times.  I'm used to simple terms, straight forward plays and easy to grasp concepts. Interestingly Sankor ..read more

S9 ep535 Seppy is back to chat about nothing to do with https://www.fightinabox.com/ but everything to do with Kaos being cancelled, Luke chats about Essen and Richard is just being a disappointment from the first 5 seconds of the show.

Forget about three players, as a game Mythic Mischief doesn't really function well. But you get four or two to the table and even an intro game can be a fun time. While you have the pain of learning what everyone else's character set can do, it's normally slight extrapolations on the base moves and noting more horrific than that.  ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This review is based on the retail version of the game provided to us by the designer and publisher. We were not paid monetary compensation for this review. We give a general overview ..read more

The box is staring at me now. Like a puppy that's made a present in the hallway in the dark and it is sitting there all innocently like nothings happened. Then you'll get up for a cup of coffee, with no slippers, because the dirtbag stole them earlier that day. And you'll go to the kitchen and there will be a squelch and then you have to do that unsteady hop. I'm being taunted here. At the end, I understand why they call themselves Sinister Fish, because what kind of two bit outfit would send a game to me called Wizards & Co? Clearly didn't read the label, clearly didn't bother listenin ..read more

  Tuscany Essentials Edition isn't just more wine for your palate, or even a cheeky cheese board on the side, it offers an entire sub menu of additional drinks and snacks that some might go as far as calling crass and invasive. I consider the whole affair rather insulting and horrific if I'm being completely honest.  Insulting because it dares to take one of my favourite games of all time and try to tell me while it's obviously half cut and leaning against the wall, that maybe, just maybe Viticulture isn't as wonderful as I think. Secondly, here's a list of things it should do in ..read more
