Galactic Cruise Review
Galactic Cruise is a Joy. It’ll be a tough act for Kinson Key to follow, and I really hope they manage to. Stellar stuff.

Kronologic: Paris 1920 Review
The designers have built the game on the back of a cool card masking gimmick, helping it deliver a cracking deduction game in half an hour. Think Clue meets The Search for Planet X and you’re getting somewhere close.
Inventions: Evolution of Ideas Review
Inventions is a great game. It’s a very expensive game, so make sure it’s one that will fit with your group, but if does, you’ll love it. It’s an ever-changing puzzle which your brain will simultaneously love and hate while you try to solve it.

I miss the days when worker-placement games kept things simple and relied on solid core game design to tempt the box off your shelf and onto the table. Mutagen gives me that same feeling again, and I like it all the more for it.
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?
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.
