Kage, Hector, Eddie and I went on an adventure into the realm of fairy tales when we played Grimm Forest. The game is rather simplistic, but the artwork is superb. It can be played with up to four players. You start by picking out your pig. The game is based around the pigs building houses.... Continue Reading →
Little Town
Yesterday Kage, Hector, Eddie and I decided to forage forward and play another new game. Little Town is a big game packed into a tiny box. It is great in bow playability and structure. You start with a map that has some resources on it. You get five workers to go out each round, and... Continue Reading →
Scary Tales: Little Red vs Pinocchio
Today Kage, Hector, Eddie and I sat down and played a couple of games. The first of those games was Scary Tales. Don't let the name fool you, for it isn't a kids game, as it's meant for 13+. The game itself has a simple enough premise- your character (in this starter game you have... Continue Reading →
Here to Slay
Today Kage, Hector, Eddie and I broke out our kickstarter edition of Here to Slay, by the same people who made Unstable Unicorns. Firstly, obviously the art is great. The placemats are super cute, and I love that each creature had its own class (squirrels were bards, unicorns were guardians and so on). The components... Continue Reading →
Happy Little Dinosaurs
It's been a long time since we have reviewed some games, but quite a while ago Kage, Hector, Eddie and I sat down and got into Happy Little Dinosaurs. We generally love all things that Unstable Games (Unstable Unicorns, Llamas Unleashed, etc) has put out, so it was an obvious choice to back this game... Continue Reading →
Marrying Mr. Darcy
Today Kage decided we would finally break out a game he had gotten for me on kickstarter long ago. I, like many others, absolutely love Pride and Prejudice, and I would definitely consider it one of, if not my most favourite classic book of all time. Hector didn't know what to think about this one,... Continue Reading →
Tsuro of the Seas
Today Kage, Hector and I ventured into the world of sea dragons in Tsuro of the Seas in game 2 of 3 for today. Tsuro of the Seas is a slightly more advanced and heavier game than the original Tsuro, though both could be considered fairly light and around the same general complexity as something...

Hero Realms
Hero Realms is a very quick “take that” type of filler game by Robert Dougherty and Darwin Kastle. Given the simplicity of the game, this review will likely be quite short and sweet, just like the play time. In Hero Realms you are going to market to purchase items, allies, and actions that will either... Continue Reading →
Tokaido
Today Kage, Hector and I went on a wonderful vacation across Japan in Tokaido. In this game you travel across one of the most magnificent roads of Japan, and along the way you try to have the most spectacular journey. You can go to temples, pick up souvenirs, and see wondrous views, go to hot... Continue Reading →
Western Legends
Our 16th game was Western Legends, a sandbox game that took Kage, Hector and I to the wild west. This game brought to you by my earlier riding lesson today. You start by picking one of a multitude of famous western legends, including such as Annie Oakley and Doc Holliday, our particular characters of choice... Continue Reading →
