Welcome to the culmination of 'The Railway to Pittsburgh'!
Ahead of the Brass: Pittsburgh crowdfunding campaign, we thought it'd be a great time to revisit the two previous Brass games in all their 4k glory along with its spritual cousin, Age of Industry, all leading up to this live-stream of Brass: Pittsburgh!
We have had the original prototype for months, but during the development, we had discussions with the team at Roxley and we all agreed that it would be best to get us the latest version of where Brass: Pittsburgh currently is in its development to show y'all...so here it is, hot off the press direct air-shipped from the factory!
So sit back and enjoy our play-through of Brass: Pittsburgh, the latest in the Brass series!
Join Edward, Derek, Ken, Shrey, and Martin the Elder!

Discover Frosted Blooms, a gorgeous tile-laying board game about building the most beautiful and valuable tulip garden. In this preview, I take a look at how the game works, what makes its drafting and placement systems interesting, and why its mix of cozy presentation and sharp decisions makes it stand out.
From clever tile drafting with the flower token to creating enclosed spaces for workers, barns, and windmills, Frosted Blooms looks like a thoughtful garden puzzle with plenty of tactical depth. If you enjoy tile-laying games, spatial puzzles, and board games with beautiful table presence, this is one to watch.

Hey friends! Today I am chatting all about Oakspire: The Builders of the Sunleaf Grove! This is a new game coming to crowdfunding from Lucky Duck Games! Oakspire is a cozy tableau-building game where you'll carefully select Project Cards that represent different stages of wood crafting. These cards can be used in a multitude of ways: Turn them into Restored Wood to fuel your production chain, play them as Company Actions to move, process, or upgrade your resources on supply lines, or blueprint them to start working on a new building! I hope you all enjoy the preview video!

Hey friends! Today we are learning how to play the newest title from Renegade Game Studios, Sea Scroll! Sea Scroll is a quick-playing, deceptively strategic set collection card game where players will guide schools of fish from the Reef, or the central discard area, to their personal Habitat to form schools of fish, or card sets in front of them. At the end of the game, each player will combine their schools with fish cards remaining in their hands to score! I hope you all enjoy the video and be sure to check out Sea Scroll!

This is my tutorial and full solo playthrough of the solo only 18-card micro game Astro ROVE by designers Dustin Dobson and Milan Zivkovic and publisher @ButtonShy , who has generously provided a preview copy for this playthrough.
After playing with every Marvel character in this box, we review this version of Dice Throne! The fast-paced Dice Throne can be played 1v1, or more of a king of the hill method with 3 players (free-for-all). We did not test the team modes though. Also known as Marvel Dice Throne: Battle Chest, this box has popular hasymmetric eroes like Thor and Dr. Strange, then some villains like Loki! Ashton’s favorite to play is Black Panther. There’s plenty of take-that and hand management with the specific and generic cards. But fundamentally, this card is all about dice rolling and doing damage, where straights and 6’s will benefit you to do big damage! Ideally, you want to do damage that cannot be defended against, since that will allow your opponent to defend against it.
