oddball Aeronauts

by Mike Bon November 27, 2014
WDR Silver
OK so I’m coming a tad late to this party, in actual fact its a shocking oversight as the designers are local lads. Stop with the looks back there, OK the truth of the matter is I missed the original Kickstarter and fully intended to catch up with Nigel and Lloyd at the UK Games […]

Chroma Cubes

WDR Silver
Note that this based on a pre-release version of the game and the finished components and rules may differ, but it’ll still be cool. Now here’s a thing, when was the last time you indulged in some coloring in? Can’t remember right, neither could I, how had it come that I’d not indulged in a […]

Firefly The Game – Blue Sun

WDR Silver
Its time to take another mosey around the verse in the latest Firefly expansion from Gale Force 9, this time we’re heading out to Rim Space with the Blue Sun expansion. Since its launch over a year ago Firefly is a game that has been met with equal parts adoration and loathing with many being […]

Legendary Encounters

WDR Essential
Ever since Upper Deck announced their plans to release an Alien themed version of Legendary I’ve been staying frosty in anticipation. The film series is something I’ve adored since I first encountered everyone’s favorite Xenomorph back in 79,  whilst not quite of age to see Alien on the big screen I devoured issues of Fantastic […]

Kickstarter has given us a great many things Video Games, Comics, Potato salad! One area it has thrived is board games and more specifically the micro game has flourished in these mysterious seas, just cast a net into the turbulent kickstarter waters and you’re sure to drag up a net bulging with promise. Coin Age […]

Apocalypse:Galactic Arena – Preview

by Mike Bon September 18, 2014
Note that this based on a pre-release version of the game and the finished components and rules may differ, but it’ll still be cool. You remember that episode of Star Trek, the one with the Shat drop kicking the big green lizard dude and getting his shirt torn (the Gorn for those discerning trek types) […]

Fresco Big Box

WDR Silver
The Renaissance, a glorious and romantic period in human history; a time over-flowing with creativity; a period which saw the production of some of the greatest works of art of all time: Michelangelo’s David and the Sistine Chapel, Leonardo Da Vinci’s Last Supper and Mona Lisa, Donatello’s Saint John The Baptist and Saint John The […]

Dead Of Winter

WDR Gold Essential
So here we go again, another bloody zombie game! I understand the eye rolling, the board game market has been flooded with Zombie titles over the last couple of years and disappointingly very few of them have honestly nailed this genre, the one exception being City Of Horror that came pretty close. They all make […]

Kemet

WDR Gold Essential
Kemet is a very fighty game. Its the equivalent of that kid who was always in trouble at school you know the one, used to sit in the back of class and punch random classmates, that’s when he wasn’t doing things to girls near the bike sheds that we wouldn’t know about until the following […]

My Little Pony – Friendship is Magic CCG

by Trixieon July 30, 2014
And now for something completely different. We have a guest review from Trixie. I’ve been meaning to do this myself but I’m rubbish. This was her first attempt at a CCG and the review is from that perspective.Mike B I was a little surprised to find a card game with this particular theme, and after […]
