I last posted on the 25th of November with a Hobby Update. At that point, I said I didn't have a lot of time, and things haven't changed hugely since then. The good thing about having these longer gaps between hobby updates is that, in these quieter weeks in hobbying, I can gather a few… Continue reading Hobby Update: Checkin’ in Before the Top 50

5 on Friday returns after a long, technical-issue-mandated hiatus! I'm up and running on a new computer and able to format this thing again. Here goes!

The modern board game is, in addition to being functionally playable, often a beautiful object in its own right. Companies put a lot of money and effort into the artwork and it's always great to see a really beautifully illustrated game. One such game that I adore is the Golem Edition of Century from Plan… Continue reading Game Art: Century Golem Edition
For the past two years I have compiled a lit of my top 50 tabletop games. I really enjoy making these lists as they make me really take a look at the games I've played this year and consider them on a number of different levels.
