Origin Story is one of the most unique, enjoyable trick-takers I’ve ever played. However, in the base game, there were only 10 Superhero cards, making the end of the game feel predictable and quite dry. But with Origin Story: Heroes & Villains, 7 more Superhero cards and 14 brand-new Supervillain cards are added. So does […]
Tony: Here, review this. Narrator: Tony tosses Brian a copy of Boss Fighters QR. Brian greedily snatches it out of the air and examines the box. Brian: Wait. What is “QR” short for? Tony: Quality Reassurance. Duh. Narrator: That is false. Brian: Oh, I thought it was short for Quick Response. Narrator: It is. Tony: […]

We’re halfway through 2026, and it’s time to look back at the shiny new cardboard that still smells like the Panda Games manufacturing line. Unfortunately for you, your wallet, and your social obligations, the Golden Age of Games continues. There are so many new releases. And so many of those are good-to-great games! How do […]
I love mysteries, police procedural TV shows, and true crime documentaries and podcasts. Like a lot of people who love mysteries, what I really love is figuring it out ahead of the protagonists. Aren’t we all certain we could solve these mysteries? If we just had access to the information, a plucky team of fellow […]
Risk was probably the first area control game most of us ever played. When I started playing Risk, I felt like I “graduated” from Monopoly and was ready for more “grown up” games. At least that’s what went through my head. I played Risk regularly throughout high school, but when my group of friends all […]
Stonemaier Games stands out among board game publishers for prioritizing both deluxe component quality and extensive playtesting, the combo of which produces consistently excellent games beloved by many. Their latest release is a mash-up of two of their popular titles: Wingspan and Viticulture—players will race to get birds drunk on fermented grapes. I kid. The […]
I don’t cover very many party games here at BGQ, mostly because my regular game group size is 2-3 players. That being said, when something interesting drops into my inbox, I can be convinced to dive in for a deeper look. And the latest game for me is Qork. Published by The Op, it’s a […]

From the coffee table to a fully kitted-out dungeon, our gaming spaces are cherished spots where we gather to laugh with friends, flex our brains, and adventure via the tabletop. The biggest challenge to maintaining a gaming area is less about what we need (a flat surface, a shelf for games, space to roll or […]
You were left the family farm, and it’s your life’s dream to take it over and live out your small town dream. It’s the bucolic scenario that kicks off every cozy game of the last ten years. Unfortunately, in this scenario, your headstrong siblings have also been left the farm, and none of you can […]
Last year, a friend of mine said, “Hey, who wants to play fliptoons on BGA?” Always up for a new game (not including heavy euros), I said sure. After one play, I was hooked and made sure to pick up a copy at Gen Con that year. Fast forward a year, and Thunderworks Games has […]
This is a guest post from Adam Joraanstad. I was in a comic book store about 10 years ago looking at the contents of The DC Deck Building Game and all its expansions. Not knowing much about it, I was impressed with all the different heroes, villains, and storylines that were part of the game. […]

Contrary to many in the boardgaming hobby, I do not bling out my games, in part because I am better able to rationalize my next, totally unnecessary, board game purchase if I know I passed on the metal coins for my last Gamefound pledge. Thus, I have monitored the recent trend of classic Eurogame deluxification—including […]
A couple of years ago, I reviewed a little party game called Smug Owls from Runaway Parade Games. It has remained in my collection, and several family members often request to play it. So when I saw Bullseye from the same design duo of Mike Belsole and Grace Kendall, my interest was immediately piqued! The […]
The Nazi party and individuals therein were responsible for the combined murder of several millions of civilians and prisoners; thus, the term “Nazi” is near universally considered synonymous with evil. Following World War II, just 199 Nazis were put on trial for their crimes at Nuremberg, but many thousands more fled to various corners of […]
Welcome to Isofar, a wild land severe in its beauty. As a member of the Isofarian guard, life is never dull. You try to keep the peace among your fellow Isofarians (a never-ending job), as well as deal with constant threats from the aggressive Falmund Empire to the south. That’s the phrase that first caught […]
