Board Games Reviews

In a year, or rather more accurately, in a half decade where it seems 1-in-3 board games that have been released have had a nature theme, it’s pretty hard to stand out. As I glance at the shelves behind me as I write, I would argue a good 30-40 percent of my collection of games could be classified as nature themed. From games about animals, to games that have animal pieces, to games about trees, leaves, mushrooms, and more. So…

Tree Society has a theme I’m pretty excited about and while I expected the box to be a lot larger when it arrived in the mail for review from Asmodee, after getting it open I understood why. I think some of the component choices here are cost cutting measures to keep the game accessible, and ultimately nothing is sub-par. Let’s dive in to see what I love about this game and what I wish was changed! I’m not going to…

A brand new set of Disney Lorcana decks have arrived with the Shimmering Skies expansion. Are these worth playing?

We recently just finished up a review cycle for the game Root, and we were thrilled to see there was an RPG world based on the game!

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…

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…

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…

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…

Root is quickly turning into a game I really, REALLY love, despite it being a game I thought I would really hate. Thanks to Leder Games, I took the dive into Root and I am so glad I did. The base game factions are perfectly fine, but it’s fun to mix and match with some of the expansion factions. While I don’t have access to all of them, Leder Games was nice enough to send over The Marauder Expansion, and…
