We all have those little quirks in our gaming preferences. Mine happens to be the belief that the more components a game has, the better it will be overall. So when I went looking for a good chilled out solo game for an evening, I figured games more like Nusfjord. So when Orchard by was […]
The next in the Games I bounced off series – this time Labyrinth: War on Terror. I started off my boardgaming in Warhammer and Necromunda, so wargames. I loved these games for their strategy and miniatures. Unfortnately, time makes a fool of us all and I no longer have time for miniature painting anymore and […]
So, I’m meant to be in Rome this week but that is not to be. It is a time to stay at home and stay safe, but that’s not to say that I’m not disappointed about not being able to go on the holiday. This means that I have more time to play boardgames […]

Unbroken was one of the hits of Kickstarter this year and with it almost ready to come out, I was given a great opportunity to speak with it designer, Artem Safarov, about him and the process that led to Unbroken being made. Where did you get your start in the board games industry, are you […]
We have recently reviewed Raiders of the North Sea and loved it, it is such a great game of pillage and plunder made by Garphill Games – this is just a quick note to say that there is currently a pre-order for a Raiders of the North Sea Solo variant which should be shipping at the […]
