Baycon 2025 Convention Report
With Baycon being in the southwest, and with me living one county over in Cornwall, you'd be forgiven for thinking it's pretty much automatic for me to attend every year. Shamefully enough, this was my first time attending.
Galactic Cruise Review
Galactic Cruise is a Joy. It'll be a tough act for Kinson Key to follow, and I really hope they manage to. Stellar stuff.
Hoplomachus: Remastered & Pandora’s Wake Expansion Review
Everything about it feels refined, and by boiling it down with the new graphic design Chip Theory have extracted the essence of what makes a good skirmish game.
Puzzle Post – The Disappearance
The acid test for me when it comes to these games where you want to feel immersion in a mystery is how realistic the things included seem. The Disappearance nails it.
Finspan Review
Whether you're sick of -span games or not, Finspan is here, and you know what? It's good.
Rebirth Review
Three years ago I wrote a post about whether Reiner Knizia could stay relevant as a modern designe. I should have known better than to doubt him.
Spectral Review
Ryan Courtney has put together a cracking deduction game which, despite only taking half an hour to play, delivers a fully-fledged brain-burning experience
Kronologic: Paris 1920 Review
The designers have built the game on the back of a cool card masking gimmick, helping it deliver a cracking deduction game in half an hour. Think Clue meets The Search for Planet X and you're getting somewhere close.
Inventions: Evolution of Ideas Review
Inventions is a great game. It's a very expensive game, so make sure it's one that will fit with your group, but if does, you'll love it. It's an ever-changing puzzle which your brain will simultaneously love and hate while you try to solve it.
