Stamp Swap

By Stonemaier Games, Paul Saloman I don’t know what it is with games which have really mundane themes, but something always appeals to me about them. Fantasy and science fiction are fine, I’ve got several games about Cthulhu and about zombies, but if you tell me there’s a game about a stamp convention, I’m in. […]

Stak Bots – Red Expansion

by Mike Bon May 13, 2016

Stak Bots has been a part of the WDR furniture since I first started writing reviews, it’s grown up with us and is still the filler of choice for Son No.1. Not that he’d admit that in public these days, being a teenager he’s far more interested in that poster of Katie Perry, oh dear. […]

Shephy

by Mike Bon May 6, 2016

WDR Bronze

Whoops, we’ve done an apocalypse. But in a surprising turn of events rather than cockroaches or unkillable robotic endoskeletons crawling from the ashes, it’s the sheep who will inherit the earth. Shephy is a solitaire game of flock building in the post-apocalypse, with nary a Border Collie in sight and the final “Come-Bye” uttered some […]

HIKIKOMORI

by Charlie Etheridge-Nunnon April 24, 2016

Game by Ewen Cluney Hikikomori is a single-player role-playing game about the Japanese phenomenon of young adults socially isolating themselves from everyone else. Now I’m an introvert, but a socially-dependent one, hence all the board games and role-playing games. In this game, we’re talking about the life of someone who can barely bring themselves […]

Saltlands

by Mike Bon April 22, 2016

WDR Silver

The post-apocalypse is one of my most beloved genre’s thanks in large part to a petrol-head father, Mad Max and the fact we watched them pretty much on a constant loop in my formative years. It’s a disappointment then that hobby board games are still a wasteland when it comes to this genre; I endured […]

by Mike Bon April 19, 2016

It’s looking that video game conversions might well soon become tabletop’s new zombies. Recently we had the announcement that Eric Lang was working on a Bloodborne card game which was pretty damn exciting. Then what comes next but that we’re also set to get a Dark Souls licensed board game Huzzah!. If you’ve not ventured […]

Talisman 4th Edition

by Mike Bon April 7, 2016

Let’s play Talisman. It’s a phrase when uttered in gaming circles will either materialise hazy half-remembrances of wasted Sunday afternoons and dreamy expressions, send a gamer screaming from the room or get you punched. On the button pushing scale of gaming, it’s up there with other marmite flavoured delights such as Munchkin, Cards Against Humanity […]

by Mike Bon March 29, 2016

And so March shoots passed us like a pensioner on a mobility scooter going downhill with dodgy brakes. We’ve been a tad subdued on here of late as I happened to be on a cruise and short of re-mortgaging the house to get a WiFi connection on the ship I was off the grid. However […]
