Akropolis Review
Akropolis would be tricky enough if was just a case of planning your own city because there are a buttload of decisions to make with every single tile choice and every single tile placement.
Game Length: Short (up to 30 mins)
Asteroid Dice Preview
Asteroid Dice is best described as Throw Throw Burrito in spaaaaaace! But it’s also got a bit of bluffing thrown in and a natty, secondary throwing part to it which reminds me of Strike, despite being pretty different.
Wormholes Review
As the captain of your own interstellar Uber your job is to take passengers (cards, in Wormholes’ case) to their destinations.
Trekking Through History Review
Sometimes you want a game that cuts through the layers upon layers of complexity of modern Euro games and instead emphasises doing one thing, and doing it well. Trekking Through History’s thing is set collection, and it’s something it does very well
Pioneer Rails Preview
For this price, for a game as much fun as Pioneer Rails is, I think you’d have to try hard to think of a reason to not back it.
Kamisado Review
Kamisado finds a happy medium between the two extremes. It’s a game I can teach to anyone in a minute and have them enjoy, but the depth of the strategy continues to emerge long after your fiftieth game.
Fatal Knockout Preview
I grew up in the Golden Age of arcade beat-em-ups. The likes of Street Fighter 2 consumed me and my spare change for years. For a long time, there was no way to get that same feeling at home, and the rip-off games that appeared didn’t really scratch that itch (we won’t talk about how much I spent on a Japanese import copy Street Fighter 2 SNES cartridge)
Achroma Review
Achroma – the evolving card game in the style of a collectible card game. Beautiful artwork, and maybe more?
Wreckland Run Review
A fully-resettable campaign game for one player which is quick to play, fun, and doesn’t take up an acre of table space? Yes indeed, what a great game.
Pugs In Mugs Review
I’ve got a pet pug called Jeffrey. Actually, I’ve got one-and-a-half pugs, as I also have a half-pug called Peggy. Now, as squishy as a pug might be, there’s no way I’m getting Jeff in a mug.
