Snap Judgment: A Review of Eminent Domain After 1...
I’ve owned Eminent Domain since Christmas, and I finally had a chance to play it this week. The short answer is that it’s going to hit the table again soon. I really liked it!
Eminent Domain is a deck building game. Groan if you want. I start to do that when I hear those three words together. What sets it apart for me is the high level of interaction. The leader/follower/dissent...

Session Report: Arkham Horror
After yesterday’s review, I wanted to present some of my experience that led to it.
On Sunday, as part of a Cthulu Game Day at Our Game Table (my FLGS,) I had the opportunity to partially lead and play in a game of Arkham Horror.
I should not be teaching this game. I barely know the game and only just tolerate it. Sadly, through a series of unfortunate events I ended up with the task of not only...

Review: Arkham Horror
I know I’ve teased this review before, but didn’t deliver. I also know that I have yet to finish a game of Arkham Horror, so there are those of you out there who will find my review invalid. I accept all of that. Those are the terms.
Three times in the last 12 months I have sat down to games of Arkham Horror. I have given the game nearly 12 hours of my life and I have yet to finish a game. I’ve...

Snap Judgment: A Review of 7 Wonders After 1 Play.

I actually almost bought it several months ago, but decided to buy Infinite City instead (which is a decision I regret now more than ever.)
In 7 Wonders you’re building one of the 7 Wonders of the ancient...

I've got to learn and Teach Arkham Horror in less...
I’m working with an event at my local game store. I’ve signed on to provide the store with a person who could play and teach Arkham Horror, the Fantasy Flight Board Game.
I have a friend who knows the game very well. He had agreed to come down to teach it.
He bailed on me about 10 minutes ago. He won’t be making the trip.
Now, to fulfill my promise I’ve got to learn...

My Website Is Now Accepting Blog Submissions...
I shall from time to time to post submissions; posts, reviews, and articles written by other people who are not me. Would you like to be one of those people?
Let me be clear, there is no money in this. None. It’s only getting something you’ve written “published” and seen by people. I can’t even offer that many people will see it, but I’m working on that.
Knowing that, do you still want in?
I...
