Expansion Review - Smash Up: It’s Your Fault
Expansion Review - Smash Up: It’s Your Fault - another winner by @alderac!
One of the perks of coming back to work in the office after the COVID lockdowns ended was the ability to play games at lunch.
Namely, Smash Up (though we’ve played a bunch of other games as well).
Way back in 2019, I had bought every available Smash Up expansion that I didn’t already have (with one or two exceptions, like Cthulhu and Munchkin, since I don’t want them).
We were in the process…
Stronghold Games Announces 3 Terraforming Mars: Ares Expedition Expansions
3 New Terraforming Mars: Ares Expedition expansions from @StrongholdGames? Yes please! Coming to Kickstarter in late March.
I was innocently reading Twitter yesterday, basking in the warm glow of having done two posts in a day when I’ve been struggling to do that in two weeks, when I saw something that made my eyes boggle.

First reaction:
Second reaction: Why does all the news come out at once? Oh well, I’ll post this tomorrow.
This is amazing…
Smash Up: Disney Edition Coming Soon
Smash Up: Disney Edition coming soon from @TheOpGames and @alderac ! Will definitely be checking this out.
Why does all of the interesting news happen on days where I’ve already done a post?
On the heels of last year’s (was it only last year? COVID has made time kind of wonky) Smash Up: Marvel Edition, The OP and Alderac Entertainment Group have announced the next collaboration between the two game companies: Smash Up: Disney Edition.
Designed by Paul Peterson, this is another edition co-published…

Two posts in one day after my drought?
Well, when I received this news in my inbox this morning, I knew I had to post today.
Bookmark Games (developer of the wonderful Pavlov’s House solo boardgame app) have announced that they will be bringing the deckbuilding wargame Undaunted: Normandy to Steam and iOS devices (no announcement about Android yet?)
Undaunted: Normandy uses deckbuilding…

Sometimes life really sucks.
I’m talking about Grade A disasters like missing the last bus of the night and having to find some place to stay because your stupid friend passed out right after you left and he’s not answering the door to let you back in.
(Not that I speak from experience…of being that friend)
Anyway, when things get you down, you can always bring yourself up a bit by thinking it…
New to Me - March 2022
New to Me #boardgames - @SnowdaleDesign @alderac @oinkgms @LederGames
Wow, this is really late.
I think the 25th of the month is the latest I’ve ever posted a “new to me games” post, but April has been a bad month.
I started the month in a bit of a funk, as I’m prone to do.
But I was all set to do some major posting in my vacation week from April 11-15! It was going to be a great week.
And then…well…
Yes, COVID really sucks.
It bled into this week and I went…

Top 25 #boardgames Played of All time - 2022 Edition (15-11) @wehrlegig @colewehrle @czechgames @alderac @JohnDClair @stonemaiergames @elizhargrave @Capstone_Games
It’s another week so it’s time for another edition of the Top 25 Games Played (by me) of All Time – 2022 edition!
We’ve gone through ten of them so far and so far they have been very cool games!
I don’t really care if you don’t agree with me.
Ok, I do…please come back.
Anyway, there have been some major drops from the 2019 list as well as new additions to it.
For some reason, Gugong dropped…

Top 25 #boardgames Played of All Time - 2022 - (20-16) @FFGames @thunderworksgam @LederGames @colewehrle @BoardAndDice @fanfactories @DeepWaterGames
It’s that time again!
Yes, it’s another installment of my Top 25 Games Played of All Time – 2022 edition, all because I’ve now played over 400 games. The last edition was 3 years ago, so there are a bunch of new games in here as well as some movement from those that were on it before.
Some majorly dropped off (like Gizmos, which fell from #9 to #56 for some reason that I can’t really…
