The Halloween season is upon us, and that means an uptick in Halloween themed board games for our gaming group to enjoy. We generally are playing games for 4 to 5 players, but recently a little 2-Player (and three player if you so choose) game has been hitting the table a lot. Yes, part of that is because we need to review it, but it’s getting back to the table again and again because it’s really fun! Two player board…

Over the past week, I have been doing a lot of two different things – playing EA FC 25 and reading previous reviews I’ve written for past soccer titles. And there is one constant across all the reviews I’ve written, at least for the last few years. And that constant is, if you are a hardcore fan of EA FC then purchase this year’s iteration; if you are a casual fan and you own last years game, just continue playing…

We’ve been playing Rock Hard 1977 from Devir over the past few weeks and have really been enjoying the games theme, and how it’s woven into both the mechanics and the components as well. As we almost always do, it’s time to take a look at the components in this game, and let you know what we think of them! Let’s get going! As with all Devir games, I have one thing I need to write about off the top…

The Kinfire Delve series was one that caught me off guard a bit – I wasn’t expecting it, wasn’t sure what it was all about, and honestly questioned whether I really wanted to review it or not. Here at GamesReviews, we get a ton of opportunities to review games, and we turn down just as many as we accept. I was SO close to turning down Kinfire Delve, but after some thought decided it would be a good game for…

I’m on the fence when it comes to games with gimmicks built into them. What is a gimmick in the board game space? It’s something that perhaps you haven’t seen before, that does something “cool”, and maybe is used as a means to sell a game, rather than the game mechanics themselves. Four Gardens from Arcane Wonders has a massive gimmick, both in how it is used in gameplay and how big it is on the table. But how well…

If you love anime and war gaming, there is a chance that the expandable tactical tabletop game from Japanime Games, Granblue Fantasy, might be the game you are looking for. With a wide variety of characters to collect and play with, there is always something fresh to try in this expandable world. With 3D terrain included in the box, the core set has everything you need to play, and promises tons of additional content to purchase to expand your Grandblue…

We wrote about Rolling Realms as a game a few years ago, and you can reread that review by clicking this link part of what we wrote then I will copy below, but honestly what we are talking about here is whether this is a good additional purchase for those who already own the original Rolling Realms. Wink wink, nudge nudge…it is. Here is a bit from our original review: Rolling Realms was born out of a desire to play…

I have loved Harry Potter for as long as I can remember. I love books. I love movies. I love games. As a sports guy, I always enjoyed the idea of Quidditch, even if the sport itself seemed completely absurd. The thing is, to read about Quidditch and to play a game of Quidditch feels like two different things. I was willing to give this game a try, and thanks to Warner Bros. we got that opportunity over the past…

Thanks to our friends at Asmodee Canada, we had the chance to take the Klink card game for a spin. I’m generally not a huge fan of small box card games, but Klink hit a bit differently, or perhaps just at the right time, and I had a blast playing game after game with friends and family. A few months back we wrote an article about the best games to take camping, and I should go back and put Klink…

Much of what I said when we reviewed the Turtle Van  is going to apply here when we talk about the LEGO Dreamzz Crocodile Car. In fact, some of that article I’m going to copy and paste here, not because I’m lazy, but because the importance of imagination, and why I think Dreamzzz is such a great theme, is the same regardless of which Dreamzzz set we build and review. That being said, it’s been about a week since we…
