Hey friends! I am so excited to share with you all my experience at Canada Plays 2026! This was my 3rd year going to Canada Plays and I always have the best time ever! Canada Plays is an event that brings retailers, studios, publishers and media together in one place! I had so much fun networking, chatting new games and getting to play a ton of games with wonderful people. I hope you all enjoy the vlog and wrap up!
A huge thank you again to Asmodee Canada for inviting me! I always have such a great time and I am already looking forward to 2027!

Cysmic Board Game Review – Is this cosmic survival game a hidden gem, or does it collapse under the weight of its own ambition?
In this review, we take a look at Cysmic, a sci-fi board game of survival, strategy, and desperate decision-making as players race against planetary disaster. We’ll cover the gameplay, components, theme, player interaction, replayability, and whether Cysmic deserves a place on your shelf.
Is it tense and cinematic, or just another overproduced space box full of faff? Let’s find out.
Perfect for fans of sci-fi board games, survival games, thematic strategy games, and big-box tabletop experiences.
Welcome to Totally Digital, a series where I teach and play the best digital board games and board game adjacent video games. Today I'm playing Vampire Crawlers, a roguelite dungeon crawling deckbuilder from the creators of Vampire Survivors.
It’s time for the annual PunchedCon debrief, and this year’s edition is a special one. I’m joined by an incredible panel of guests to unpack our experiences at the Coventry wargame convention, the games we played, and the ideas they sparked.
Around the table:
- Candice M. Harris, friend of the show and host of Kickin’ It Creative
- Pierre Vagneur-Jones, co-host of We Intend to Move on Your Works and designer of Ermine (next entry in the Men of Iron series)
- Eric Vulgaris, legendary online game master
- Joe Dewhurst, partner in crime, developer and designer (The Pure Land, Resisting Revolution)
- Adam Blinkinsop, developer and designer (Echo from the Dark, upcoming ICS title from GMT)
Together, we revisit the convention: what stood out, what surprised us, and what made this year’s PunchedCon such a great space for wargames, historical games, and creative experimentation.
We talk about a wide range of titles — from classics to curiosities:
Onward Christian Soldier (Berg megagame), the surprise hit from VUCA Imperial Elegy, the unusual The Man Who Was Thursday, Pacts from DVC Games, the classic A House Divided, recent releases like Guerrilla Generation and Baltic Empires, and oddities ranging from Guerrilla (a 90s COIN-like card game) to Fleeced (yes, the Wallace & Gromit game) and many more...
We played a lot of great board games in 2025 that were new to us and we're here to talk about them! All of this in preparation of our Top Board Games of All-Time which will be coming this Summer!
