My thoughts about the board games I play each week, from the perspective of a husband, gaming community organizer, and game designer.

    This week I played The Networks, Mexica, more Mechs vs. Minions, a bunch of party games, and jumped back into mobile gaming with the Star Realms iOS app!

    Episode 5 - Mechs vs. Minions, Charterstone, Kemet, and more
    Light spoilers! Mechs vs. Minions and Charterstone both begin by immediately unlocking content, so anything you hear is technically a spoiler. If you're ok with knowing just a little bit about each, go ahead!

    Episode 4 - Secret Hitler, Sushi Go Party!, Jamaica, and more
    I spent the weekend at the Stonemaier Games Design Day in St. Louis, and got in gaming with Cody from Waitress Games and our friend Melissa. Lots of new stuff, including a long talk about Secret Hitler - as a game, as an experience, and as it's compared to The Resistance.
