The 4x video game experience now comes to the table! This massive war game plus Euro has all of the X’s (e.g. exploit) while piloting historical European powers like Castille. Players can use action points do perform actions, and also launch military campaigns which are resolved by dice roll. You can hand management your generals, and even develop your own provinces! How many ages will you play in your run of this? Will you lean harder into military or exploring the new world? How long will this Aegir's Games game actually take for you, since it makes other grand board games like Ti4 and Sid Meier’s Civilization 2010 feel like entry level experiences?
Other games mentioned: Cuba Libre, John Company 2nd Edition, Europa Univeralis 4

Can poker-style hand building become a clever prediction game? In this preview of All In: Predictions, I take a look at a fast card game that mixes familiar poker-style hands with table reading, timing, and smart predictions. If you enjoy accessible card games with a fun social layer, this one has a neat hook.
In this video, I talk about how All In: Predictions works, what makes it interesting, and why its mix of hand management, deduction, and predicting the winner helps it stand out.
Sometimes you get rid of a game and a couple years can go by before you realize you made a big mistake. My GAME OF THE WEEK is one such game. I've also got a new segment called REHEATED, a viewer collection in TOP SHELF SPREAD and a modified ending segment called THE BILL! Cozy up with some coffee, with some tea, with a pet, heck, grab a book if you want, and enjoy episode 10 of the AYCB Buffet.

Been another great weekend for gaming! We introduced some friends to Scythe, a household all time favourite, got some heavy euros to the table and worked our way through our Regicide Legacy campaign a little more!
Your friend’s mysterious disappearance results in the discovery of an unusual item, leading you to embark on a journey through time and memory. In this narrative puzzle adventure, an intimate coming-of-age story is told through an object that serves as a tarot deck, a puzzle game, and a work of art. You will need to manipulate cards, find hidden messages, and solve logic and word problems in order to uncover the deck’s secrets.
