When Fantasy Flight Games announced that they would be releasing Marvel D.A.G.G.E.R. this summer, I was pretty excited about it. As a huge Marvel fan, a cooperative hero focused game was something I knew I was going to enjoy. Plus, it’s Fantasy Flight Games! There might be great miniatures in the box as well. After my copy arrived in the mail, I was half right, but that isn’t too big of a deal. Let’s hop into the box and see…

July is just around the corner, and we are getting our second wave of additional content for Star Wars: Shatterpoint. Coming out this month is the Plans and Preparations Squad Pack, the Jedi Hunters Squad Pack, and the You Can’t Run Dual Pack. Let’s dive into what you get with each expansion, and talk a bit about building these units! Plans and Preparations Squad Pack Primary: Jedi Master Luminara Unduli Secondary: Padawan Barriss Offee Supports: Republic Clone ...

Two player games are pretty hard to come by, so when they drop on my doorstep I always hope it will be a lot of fun. While I definitely had fun with Maul Peak, there are just a few things I wasn’t loving about the experience. Still, with easy to understand rules and a bit of variety in the Guardians you can play as, and I think this is still one of the better two player games in recent memory!…

Automation games are becoming more and more common. One of my favourites from the past few years has been Autobots, but I think a new favourite has emerged. Nova Lands is doing a lot of really great things. Does it set itself apart from others? I’m not 100% sure, but what I do know is that I’m really enjoying my time with the game . In Nova Lands, players will be building up their automation systems, collecting resources and doing…

This October, Lookout Games is launching a brand new game experience called Forest Shuffle. Forest Shuffle, a 2-5 player game where players are attempting to collect more trees than there opponents, is looking like it will have addicting gameplay and fantastic art. Love walking around in nature and checking out what the world has to offer? Forest Shuffle might give you that experience right on your home table! Forest Shuffle is designed by brilliant (and ...

My wife and I have been loving Google products for the last half decade, and have owned most Google home products that were released. We’ve looked at and still love our Google Nest Hub Max, our Google Home devices (wince discontinued), wifi setup and more. Google has had tablets in the past, and most have failed in comparison to the giant of the industry, the Apple iPad. With the brand new Pixel Tablet, Google is actually tackling tablet use in…

I’ve been playing Star Wars: Shatterpoint for almost a month now, thanks to our friends at Atomic Mass Games and Asmodee Canada. Every time we get the game to the table, we really enjoy ourselves. The game is really, really good. Last night, while sipping on my decaf McCafe coffee – as I do at 35 years old – my father-in-law and I started discussing what we didn’t like about Shatterpoint. After all, all I’ve done for the past few…

My wife has never played a lot of video games. But every night she settles in with her iPhone for a few minutes and announces it is officially “Toy Blast” time. We all know not to bother her as she tries to advance a few more levels. By last count, she was close to level 8,000. The iPhone is one of the greatest inventions of our time. It helps us work, helps us communicate, and it lets us play what…

The Binding of Isaac is an immensely popular video game franchise, and when the game was adapted into a card game many years ago, it was again quite popular. With the release of promo cards and expansions, the game has evolved from its early state, and now all of that content is available in a beautiful collectors edition case, with so much room for more stuff! Before we dive into the actual collectors edition, it’s worth taking a high level…

The a-series of the Pixel phone line-up has finally landed around the world, and those who enjoy many premium Google phone features at a discounted price are going to be very excited. This year, Google has opted for even less disparity between the Google Pixel 7 and the Google Pixel 7a, and with only (MSRP) $200.00 separating the two at retail in Canada, I wondered which provided the better value. Let’s dive into the Pixel 7a and see how it…
