Knitting Circle Review

27. Februar 2026 um 14:45
Knitting CircleCalico is a game that looks deceptively cute and cuddly, possessing an adorably floofy kitten on the cover atop a pastel quilted backdrop. Inside the gameplay, however, is a brutal brain-burner of a puzzle where players are challenged to optimize among 36 unique tile types within a slew of overlapping scoring opportunities that all seem […]

Grand Central Skyport Review

26. Februar 2026 um 15:15
Grand Central SkyportWhen I play a board game, I like to pair it with a playlist. Forest Shuffle? There’s a playlist for that (bless you, whoever made it). But, Grand Central Skyport? I’m stumped. Do I go full retro-futuristic? Throw on some Around the World in 80 Days vibes? Still figuring it out. And, honestly, that ambivalence […]

MicroMacro: The Home Game Jigsaw Puzzle Review

25. Februar 2026 um 15:11
MicroMacro: The Home GameI am not a huge fan of puzzles. If I have time to myself, I prefer to play video games or a solo board game. Sarah (my wife) LOVES puzzles and would rather work on a puzzle during her downtime. When not watching movies or Netflix, we play about one board game a week together, […]

Incredible EPIC Terrain!

24. Februar 2026 um 21:10

Sextus, you ask how to fight an idea. Well I’ll tell you how… with another idea!

Peter showcases the amazing range of epic scale Gothic Sector pre-painted terrain from Gale Force Nine!

I do love a bit of tabletop terrain, and if it’s pre-painted so I don’t have to do any extra work, so much the better! Gale Force Nine just sent me this incredible range of epic-scale terrain from their Gothic Sector range, and I’m blown away. At last, great trees and roads for games like Armoured Clash, Adeptus Titanicus, Epic 40,000, and Legions Imperials, and Epic Warpath. Check it out!

Ra and Write Review

24. Februar 2026 um 15:07
Ra and WriteWhen your spouse is an Egyptologist, it’s hard to pass up an opportunity to play and review the newest Ra iteration—Ra and Write. Even harder when you’re planning a visit to see an art show about Ancient Egypt’s gods. Designed by Reiner Knizia with art by Ian O’Toole, the game pulls forward themes which will […]

Dust Biters: Pocket Edition Review

20. Februar 2026 um 15:04
Dust BitersAccording to the Dalai Lama, “the purpose of our lives is to be happy,” and so by the transitive property, it can be argued that the purpose of life is to play board games. Thus, we should play them every chance we get, even when traveling and constrained by limited luggage and/or table space. Button […]

Reminder: Attika is good

19. Februar 2026 um 20:26

Had a small group and so I played two games of Attika, which is an excellent two player game. Some people (not me) like it with three, but nobody (that I know) likes it at four. Reminscent of Hex or Go, a ‘connection’ abstract but you also are managing resources (cards and more importantly tempo) to try to get all your pieces down. If you make a connection its an auto win, so you mainly exploit it by threatening when it will be expensive for your opponent to block. Fast and on my fifty by fifty list.

Rating — Suggest.

The Plum Island Horror: More of a Bad Thing Expansion Review

19. Februar 2026 um 15:24
More of a Bad Thing ExpansionGMT Game is a war-game publisher known for its crunchy, strategic games… usually about war. However, they have also branched off into other areas, such as racing with Grand Prix and Thunder Alley. But my favorite offering of theirs is The Plum Island Horror. This cooperative game was a surprise hit for me in 2024, […]

Armoured Clash: Sultanate Battlegroup – Portal Sultans!

19. Februar 2026 um 05:11

I ran away from a battle. I’ve been running ever since

Peter reviews the Sultanate Faction Battlegroup for Armoured Clash by Warcradle Studios.

The final Armoured Clash faction is here, the Sultanate, and it’s certainly impressive how much Warcradle has released for this excellent epic scale game over such a short period of time.

Remember to download my Armoured Clash rules & reference before playing your own games – it’s in Tabletop Codex too!

A Wayfarer’s Tale Review

17. Februar 2026 um 14:53
A Wayfarer's taleExploring uncharted lands is not a new concept in the realm of board games. It’s an excellent way to create initial buy-in as players discover a world evolving over time. A Wayfarer’s Tale is designed by James Emmerson and illustrated by collaborator Tristam Rossin. They have visited this thematic space before. Earlier releases from the […]
