Quick Bits: Second half of 2011 will be a doozy!
It seems as if 2011 has been a banner year in the board/card game hobby. Just looking at the number of quality games that have been released in the first 6 months of the year, you could say this has been one of the very best years ever. And with still a whole half of [...]
Quick Bits: Holy Grail games
As I get more and more involved with the board game hobby, I get a better appreciation for some of the games that laid the foundation for all of the great games that are available today. Because of this I have been starting to come across a few older titles that would really be special [...]
Game Convention Report: Kublacon 2011
Day 1: Where are we and what is this all about? Without ever going to a board game convention I, naturally, didn’t know what to expect. Weeks before it started I went through the events catalog and marked down a bunch of events, listed on the Kublacon website, that I wanted to take part in. [...]
Interview with Dyad Games: designers of Kamakura
Board/card game projects on Kickstarter seem to be all the rage these days. Not that I’m complaining! The more games to get published the better, in my book. But because of this, I find myself needing to browse the Board and Card Game section on Kickstarter.com rather frequently, looking for something that might catch my [...]
Update: BattleCON fighter roster
Many of you have heard of the Kickstarter funded game BattleCON from Level 99 Games. This incredibly popular project was funded at a staggering 255%! If you’re not aware of the game, you should definitely check out what David B Talon Jr. and his team have been up to. Just recently they settled on the [...]
Review: 7 Wonders – More than just a simple filler!
Prologue Even though 7 Wonders shot to the top of the hotness, I was initially uninterested. This is mostly because of the little research I did on the game didn’t make it sound like anything all that different than any other games out there. Granted, most of the stuff I was reading was just comparing [...]
Review: Last Night on Earth – A great intro to Ameritrash.
Prologue My first experience with Flying Frog games came after picking up A Touch of Evil (AToE) over a year ago. I was looking for something in the horror realm, but simple enough to be able able to play with my, then, girlfriend. Unfortunately after a few solo plays and a couple plays with my [...]
Games on my Radar: Rune Age
Deck building games seem to bring springing up all over of the place these days. Another one of these types of game has been announced by Fantasy Flight Games called Rune Age. They haven’t released a ton of information about the game, but what they have posted shares a good amount about how the game [...]
Quick Bits: My favorite online boardgame implementations
There are times when I don’t get many opportunities to bring any physical boardgames to the table, luckily there are many of my favorite games available on sites like Yucata.de, GameTableOnline.com and Boardgaming-Online.com. Here are three of my favorite implementations that I’ve been able to enjoy recently.
Interview with Galen Ciscell, designer of Atlantis Rising
Galen Ciscell…you probably haven’t heard of him before, but you will very soon. He is the designer of an upcoming Z-Man Games release called Atlantis Rising and this has “hit” written all over it! Don’t feel bad if you know nothing about this game, the only reason I’m aware of it is because of a [...]

Prologue

My first experience with Flying Frog games came after picking up A Touch of Evil (AToE) over a year ago. I was looking for something in the horror realm, but simple enough to be able able to play with my, then, girlfriend. Unfortunately after a few solo plays and a couple plays with my other gaming partner, I realized that it just wasn’t the experience I was looking for.

At this point you might be asking yourself “Then why did you pick up Last Night on Earth?” OK, maybe you’re not asking yourself that, but it would be a valid question if you were! During one of our game nights, the subject of Last Night on Earth (LNoE) type games came up and I mentioned that I really didn’t enjoy AToE, although maybe I was just missing something or needed to play more of the advanced scenarios. To my surprise I was told that they are two very different games and I should get LNoE a try.
