201-300: This set made it easy to choose my favorites again. Here’s where some of those classics of days gone by have fallen to, but also where the future hits are slowly working their way up to. Two of these games I got within the last year and one of them is the oldest game …
Board Games A slower week of games this week, though not for trying. I currently have 7 games running on BGA but they’re all taking more than a week to finish, so expect a bigger list next week. But I did play a game of boop. against someone who was highly ranked on BGA by …

Board Games Apr 2: As I’ve been prone to do lately, I did an early Sunday morning solo game. This time it was Legacy of Yu. This was the second game in the series and I was excited to pull of a winning strategy. Until I read the post game story beat and realized I …
