Mass Effect: The Board Game Review
So Mass Effect: The Board Game isn’t a 1:1 recreation of any of the video games. It’s also not a sprawling TTRPG full of its relationships and intergalactic power struggles. What is it then?

Cascadero Review
Cascadero is the sort of game which is an instant hit with me. Two to four players, a super slim box which fits in the gaps on any shelves, a couple of minutes to set up, and all done in under an hour. Ideal.
Spots Review
Spots has already become a favourite here at home. It’s quick to learn, packs in tons of variety, and it’s stupidly charming.
Wilmot’s Warehouse Review
It’s unadulterated creative stupidity, and I love every second. You’ll utter sentences never before given breath to, and never to be repeated before the inevitable heat death of the universe.
Arcs Review
Is Arcs the best game ever? No. Is it a chaotic, unbalanced mess? No, it’s not that either. Arcs is a superb game which comes with a few caveats to get the most from it.
Cat In The Box: Deluxe Edition Review
So far, so easy, you might think, and you’d be right. However, there are a couple of pretty big spanners you can throw into the mix, but your choice of spanners and when you want to toss them in depends on your ability to predict the future.
Cosmoctopus Review
Fans of lighter games, families dipping their toes in the waters of modern board games, and those of you who are part of a group that welcomes new members from time to time will take a lot from it
Windmill Valley Review
This is a great example of everything a modern Euro game should be. Clean design, clear rules, bright boards, and just the right amount of mental overhead.
Ultimate Voyage Preview
A big vision, and a really unusual setting and theme which feels exotic and fresh to me.
In The Footsteps Of Darwin Review
In the Footsteps of Darwin is a game which will have you cursing your fellow players. You’ll catch yourself muttering “I can’t believe you took my wombat!”, and no one will bat an eyelid.
