5-15-2017 - Review - FUSE - Renegade Game Studios



 I have read a lot of positive reviews for the game FUSE, and moreover people talked about using the free timer app. I am not opposed to app based things for board games but i had yet to find a game that integrated the app in such a way that it enhanced the game play. A dicey co-op huh? Well today i got to see if that streak would be broken.

5-8-2017 - Review - Discount Salmon (2013)





Try as i might i can not beat my son at speed games. I have been sitting on this one for a little while and when we were looking for something quick to play he said "how about this one." Ok young padawan, today is the day i beat you at a speed game. Let's do this.

5-1-2017 - Review - Parade (2007)


“But I don’t want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.
"Oh, you can’t help that," said the Cat: "we’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad."
"How do you know I’m mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn’t have come here.”

4-24-2017 - An interview with Jason Miceli of Geek Fever Games!


While looking around on The Game Crafter i stumbled upon a game that was a finalist in one of the contests called trick legacy. It really intrigued me as something me and Tyler would play. This lead me to the website for Geek Fever Games! I asked Jason Miceli if he had some time to talk about that game and another game that right now is just crushing it on kickstarter of theirs called Dead Man's Doubloon. He graciously obliged.

4-9-2017 - Champions of the Galaxy (1986) - Review



 When i was a teenager i was obsessed with wrestling. I use to get all the magazines and watch anything that was on TV. In the back of those magazine was an add to buy a game called "Champions of the Galaxy." A rpgish futuristic take on wrestling. Well over 20 years later this game is still alive and kicking so me and Ty gave it a try for old times sake.

4-3-2017 - Qwirkle (2006) - Review





Ever since we saw this game on tabletop we have gone back and forth on if we should buy it or if it is gong to get played or not. I was able to pick up a copy at a local thrift shop.... and it sat on the shelf.... for a long long time....until (echo effect) now now now.
