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. […]

Lost: The Game

by Charlie Etheridge-Nunnon April 1, 2015

I’m an unapologetic Lost fan, having enjoyed the show when it aired, I rewatched the first few seasons when they came out on DVD and last year saw the whole thing again on blu-ray. Now we’re further away from the showrunners not really knowing what they were going to do and promising answers would be […]

I have to go back

by Mike Bon March 31, 2015

LOST: THE GAME An experience I went round to the home of S & B to play Lost: The Game. The pieces were all set up when I arrived, an island made of random tiles reflecting the shoreline and the inner island. Little cardboard pieces to represent the characters from the show, to be […]

LOST: THE GAME A game based on the television show we all loved when it aired and said we hated once it ended. I took a photo of Lost: The Game and I posted the result with my damp squib and realising that caveat emptor still holds true. The thing is, I decided […]

by Mike Bon March 20, 2015

A solar eclipse is happening today, about now. Across the UK legions of school children have been working furiously on pinhole cameras so as to watch this dazzling intergalactic event without fear of burning a hole through the backs of their heads. Simultaneously groups of strange bearded gentlemen have thronged to Stonehenge garbed in tea-towels […]

WDR Gold Essential

Dum, de duh doo, dah doo dada dee da! Ah yes even now when I hear those masterful notes from John Williams epic Star Wars scores I get all a quiver. Its a vast universe ripe with possibility and adventure which disappointingly many of the board and card games licensed from the films have been […]

Rejoice! Rio Grande games have finally announced the long awaited and for some time presumed dead expansion to Arctic Scavengers, Arctic Scavengers-Recon. The game and its expansion have had a bit of a journey to reach us, I covered a snippet of that history back in April last year HERE. It seemed the game was […]

ROLE-PLAYING PODCASTS

by Charlie Etheridge-Nunnon February 23, 2015

I listen to a ton of podcasts, some I’ve stuck with since I first hooked myself into the monster that is iTunes, others I’ve drifted in and out of. In the last couple of years I’ve been listening to more RPG-based podcasts. Here I’ll explain why and tell you what to expect. Podcasts are […]
