The first things that drew me to Tembo Survival on the Savanna were the art by Vincent Dutrait and the table presence. The theme of elephants traveling across the Savanna also intrigued me. Tembo, which means elephant in Swahili, is a cooperative game that plays one to four players in about 30 to 45 minutes. […]

It’s been 8 years since Mage Knight Ultimate Edition was released, way back in 2018. That was supposed to be it. No more content, everything in this one enormous box. But then it just kept selling. And selling! And selling! And all that treasure awakened a terrible Draconic Power. Now the Apocalypse Dragon is wreaking […]

I am not a hardcore historical board gamer by any means, but when you offer me a way to casually dive into them in under two hours of gameplay, I’m more than happy to give it a whirl. What I’ve found with these types of board games is an emphasis on new mechanics that players […]
I always thought hieroglyphics were a pretty cool way to communicate, but if it weren’t for the Rosetta Stone, we’d just have to… guess what those awesome Egyptian reliefs were trying to depict. Glyphics takes that conundrum and gamifies it. Are those two squiggles and a triangle a sailboat at sea, or a chip in […]
How many editions of Pandemic are there now? Ten? Twelve? More?? Do we really need another iteration with a pasted-on theme and modified ruleset? Haven’t we cured all the diseases?

There is a tiny Kaiju spirit locked inside your cat. I’m pretty sure this isn’t scientifically verifiable, but it is anecdotally recognized by anyone who has spent any amount of time with a house cat.
