books of time box art

Books Of Time Review

Books of Time hit me right in the nostalgia. Not because I’ve played another game like it, because I’m not sure I have, but because of the sound.

malum hortus box art

Malum Hortus Preview

Malum Hortus is a cooperative game where you play nymphs, lured to a beautiful garden to frolic, or do whatever it is when nymphs have a few hours to kill. Some weeding, maybe?

aurum box art

Aurum Review

how about a new trick-taking game where you expressly have to not follow suit? Do I have your interest now?

search for planet x box art

The Search For Planet X Review

Other players will know where you’re looking, and what you’re looking for, but not the outcome. It’s time to employ some logic.

oros box art

Oros Review

Oros is a unique game which deserves way more attention than it gets. If you’re one of those people who’s always looking for that undiscovered gem, or just want something different from anything you’ve played before, Oros is a fantastic choice.

rogue angels box art

Rogue Angels Preview

I’ve played through several hours of the included campaign now, and I’ve got to tell you, it actually lives up to the claim. Rogue Angels is Mass Effect: The Board Game in all but name.

kapow box art

KAPOW! Volume 1 Review

I wonder how you’re meant to say the name of this game. Do I turn up to my local game group and say “Hey guys, who wants to play KAPOW!?”. I’d scare the crap out of them.

rauha box art

Rauha Review

The alternate drafting is really interesting and adds a nice little squeeze of tension, drizzled over the top of the game.

rear window box art

Rear Window Review

Dishing out clues to help the rest of the table figure out the identities – ringing any bells? That’s right folks, Mysterium. Rear Window shares a lot of design DNA with Mysterium

village rails box art

Village Rails Review

Over the course of a game, you’re going to make seven railway lines with twelve cards. No more, no less.
