In Guardians of Haversack, players will be traversing the world defeating monsters, discovering treasure, rebuilding villages, and capturing fairies, all of which will earn them victory points. This bag building game will have you adding more Guardians to your Expedition Bag to ...

River of Gold, based in the Legend of the Five Rings universe, is one of the most beautiful games released in 2024. Beauty, however, can only get you so far, but thankfully River of Gold has a ton of great and easy to understand mechanics that makes this a really good game for veteran board game players, and casual players as well. We looked at the games components in a previous post, so we won’t go into depth on all…

We recently got Horrified: World of Monsters into the office for review, and we are pleasantly surprised in the games production!

Rolling Realms Redux is coming to a shelf near you. It is a standalone Rolling Realms experience but has room for all your old stuff!

Honey Buzz was one of our favorite games last year, and we raved about the games production value and game mechanics. Players would draft honeycomb tiles for their hive, attempting to make rings, use actions, produce and sell honey, and much more, all to earn points and hopefully be the best hive at the end of the game. The game was phenomenal, and we played it a ton. The more we played, the more we realized we wished there was…

We get a ton of games to review at GamesReviews.com, and it’s pretty rare at this point that I purchase games with my own money. No, I’m not cheap – I just don’t have time to play games for “fun” anymore as so much time is spent handling review items. But Honey Buzz was a game I really wanted, so not only did I pick up the base game from a local retailer, but I also got all the deluxe…

Playmats and Trading Card Games go hand-in-hand. Regardless of which trading card game you might be investing in, there will be a plethora of accessories you can purchase to go alongside the game. This might include acrylic or metal tokens, dice, sleeves, deck boxes, and of course, playmats. I have a love and hate relationship with playmats because of how hard they are to store. The question became for me, does a casual trading card game fan need a playmat?…

My wife and I recently bought a pop-up trailer for weekend camping, and there is a really nice table to play games if the weather turns for the worst. Obviously, really big games aren’t going to fit on this small table, but here are five games in my collection that would work really well on our small table! Let’s dive in! This is the first part of a multi-part series of games you can bring camping! Please enjoy and post…

We always do a holiday buying guide, but why not a summer board game buying guide? Check out our favourites!

Oath is a really unique, very deep game where players will have different factions with asymmetrical powers. Throughout the game, players will vie for control of a fantasy land – will you have the power to control The Cradle, The Hinterlands, and The Provinces? Only time will tell! What I love about Oath, and all games from Leder, is the wonderful production value. Sure, you might pay a bit more for a Leder Games title, but they are definitely worth…
