Splendor Kids is one of the first games released in the asmodee Kids lineup of titles, and they set the bar really high with this experience. The components are obviously fantastic, as we discussed, but the way the game is built from the ground up with kids in mind is fantastic. One thing I never noticed when doing my components overview was the purpose of the stickers on the resource tray. My assumption at the time was that these stickers…

Our good friends at Ravensburger sent over a booster box of Fabled, the latest release in the Disney Lorcana franchise. I was super excited for this release simply because it featured a good number of cards from the Goofy Movie. As one of my favourite movies of all time, having Petey, Powerline, Max and more was an exciting prospect. By the time I opened up all 24 packs, I think I had almost all the Goofy Movie cards. But something…

I’ve been having a lot of fun playing Railroad Tiles with friends and family, and it’s probably one of my favourite games right now. Not only is it easy to setup and play, but it’s quite easy to teach as well, especially for those who have played the predecessor to this, Railroad Ink. I thought Horrible Guild was being a bit ambitious when they launched seven expansions alongside the base game for their Kickstarter campaign, but so far these ...

The latest smartphone from OnePlus is set to launch on November 13th in Canada, and we here at GamesReviews are pretty excited about the next wave of OnePlus phones. We’ve had the pleasure of reviewing a ton of OnePlus products over the last few years, and while they are never perfect, they are always pushing the boundaries of what smart devices in their respective price ranges should be doing. The OnePlus 15 “will be one of the first smartphones ...

Railroad Tiles is Horrible Guild’s follow-up to the very popular Railroad Ink, and while you won’t be rolling dice and drawing routes onto a dry erase board, you will be connecting roads, rails and more as you try to create the best network. Railroad Tiles is an arguably much better game than Railroad Ink, and that experience is only made better by a litany of expansions that are sure to excite hardcore players. I originally backed the Kickstarter ...

For a long time now I’ve balanced my free time between playing video games and playing board games. When I first got married, the amount of time I played video games outpaced my time playing board games 4 or 5 to 1. That’s balanced out over the past decade, and now I find myself playing as many hours of board games as video games, and I’m seeing a lot of connections. I’ve jumped back into Tainted Grail: Kings of Ruin…

Reus 2 has launched on the Nintendo Switch and Xbox and while there obviously a really solid game here for fans of “god games” to enjoy, I’m not sure the home console, even one that is portable like the Nintendo Switch, is the ideal place to play this. In Reus 2, players will terraform planets and settle a variety of different tribes on them. These tribes will have leaders who like or want specific things, and the city of each…

We have been getting a ton of Star Wars games over the past year, and I’m here for it. I love Star Wars, and while I’m always worried we are bound to get a really bad game with a great IP, that doesn’t seem to have happened yet. Star Wars: Super Teams looked to be that game, a half backed experience banking on success because of its IP. That couldn’t be further from the truth. While Star Wars: Super Teams…

A few months ago, Turtle Beach sent over one of their newest Nintendo Switch Rematch Wireless controllers, and after using it a ton over the past few weeks, mostly reviewing Pokémon Legends Z-A, we are really impressed! The parity for controller quality across the industry right now is pretty close. Unless you are ordering a cheaply made, mass produced controller from Temu or the like, you are going to get a really solid product that works as intended. For ...

Memoire 44 is an incredibly popular title amongst a certain age of gamers, and while the gameplay is fantastic, the World War theme has become a bit lost on newer generations of gamers. But what if that system could be reworked into something more popular, say Star Wars? Fantasy Flight Games made this happen, so let’s take a look at Battle of Hoth and see if the gameplay matches the IP! I’ve said it before and I will say it…

Two Point Museum is one of my favourite games in recent memory, and head of the games launch on Nintendo Switch tomorrow, we have a full review of our Switch experience on the site now. Just as reviews for the Nintendo Switch 2 version of the game dropped, Two Point Studios released a quick trailer showcasing what is coming next for Two Point Museum: Zooseum. Check out the trailer below to see what might be coming from Two Point Museum:…

One of the toughest aspects of reviewing board games is that so many come through the office each week. Often we have to pass on some, and others are intriguing enough to push down the road. Please Don’t Burn My Village is one of those games, one that although I didn’t get to it after GenCon when my copy arrived, I knew I wanted to. So is this game as intriguing as I thought it would be? Let’s check it…

I have played a ton of Two Point Museum on the PlayStation 5, and as with all Two Point titles, I absolutely loved it. The thing is, I’ve owned all the Two Point games – Two Point Hospital, Two Point Campus, and Two Point Museum – on either my PlayStation 5 or my Xbox Series X, and yet decided to also purchase them on my Nintendo Switch. Honestly, I preferred the Nintendo Switch versions of those games, not because they…

Our good friends over at OnePlus sent over the OnePlus Buds 4 in mid September, and for a variety of reasons our review of the product has been delayed a bit longer than we would have liked. That said, we’ve been able to use these a lot more than we normally would before publishing a review, and of course we have a ton of thoughts. At a relatively low price of 129.99 USD (or 169.99 CAD), they are not the…

When I saw that the artist and designer of Flamecraft had partnered again on another title, this time with The OP, I was pretty excited. Not only did the gameplay of Tea Witches look phenomenal, but the components looked great as well!  There is a lot in the box when you first get Tea Witches to the table, and the beautiful artwork definitely pops right away. Whether it’s the various witches on the cards, the various shops you’ll be visiting,…
