The gaming view from Japan is amazing

I have always been a fan of Japan. When i use to be big into video games i would often try to find the weirdest or most unique games i could and buy the for my PSX and PS2. I had tons of games. King of crusher, Pepsi Man, Vacuum Cleaner Kids. Those are ones just off the top of my head. As i have played more and more board games i have wanted to try to find some odd games from japan and i stumbled across this site. Board Game Every Day list tons and tons of games from Japan. It has releases from all over and it's amazing. now grant it, i can't read it but i can translate it and find the games on Board Game Geek. So i would like to show you a couple i have found on the site. If you have some free time it's super interesting to look at all the things posted at this site.

GENCANT Part 3 - Final Day

We had to wrap things up early on the final day so we did not have a ton of time. But we did decide to make Sunday fun day.


 

GENCANT 2016! - Part 2 - Day 3 - Stones Of Fate, Hera & Zeus And HEROSCAPE

Day 3:

We started out the afternoon with playing games that were chosen from a list i put up on my Instagram account. There was a tie in the voting so we played them both.

GENCANT 2016! - Part 1

No no spiderfriends, that's not a typo. When you can't go to the big show, you go to the non-show.

Review - Raptor (2015) - Matagot

I am always on the lookout for a good 2-player game for us. This one has been on my radar for a while, and I was able to trade for a copy (and right after I did, it went back into print). So, I figure now would be a good time to review it.

Review - Bisikle (2009) - CEPIA Games

I have wanted this game for a long time, but I never pulled the trigger on it. Well, recently that changed, and I was finally able to acquire a copy in a trade!

Review - Random Encounter (2016) - IDW Games

Ty was excited about this game when it was on Kickstarter because the art was done by Jamie Keddie, an artist on Minecraft: Console Editions.  Unfortunately, the game did not reach its funding goal, and he was saddened.  However, victory was around the corner, as IDW games decided to publish the game! After much anticipation, Ty challenged me to a game of Random Encounter.
