Okay, I’m not gatekeeping this gem!

If you listen to music while playing games (if not, YOU SHOULD!), check out my latest issue! I’ve unearthed an album full of loopable 16-bit tracks that's dope, at least to my ears!

A dice that’s NOT random? Is that even possible?

Well... time to find out how PRNG and controlled randomness can add a whole new angle to game design in my 119th newsletter issue!

Verdict’s out, folks!

In my previous issue, I walked through the story behind my Medieval methods of crafting PnP cards, and frankly... I expected some wrath from the PnP connoisseurs.

But did I get axed, though? 🤔

I have a confession to make...

And it’s about print-and-plays (duh), but NOT about game design...

This one is more about what happens AFTER I print them out.

Do the math? 😉

After “visually” playing Roll 4 Rum since 2024, I’m so glad to finally have its successor, Roll 4 MORE Rum, on my table!

What are the little things that make a PnP feel special for you?

Not talking about the genre or mechanics. But the extra bits around the game.

In my 111th newsletter issue, I’m talking about 4 little big wins that make print-and-play games even better for me. Any guesses?

Cute horror game. Gorgeous artwork. Add to that a comic book packed with lore.

Could I resist the urge to interview the mind behind such a game?

Absolutely not.

Enjoy the 7th Behind the Scenes issue, where I reached out to Bob Whitely to know about the story behind 7 To Midnight.

Get to know about the game’s origin, the world behind it, and the villain waiting near the Midnight Gate.

What does it take to create a survival game?

For my 108th newsletter issue, I conducted an anatomy of Bravery, perhaps one of the most in-depth games I’ve played this year. A game this layered deserved to be dissected and looked at closely.

In other news, it’s PRINT DAY!

I printed two games that could not be more different from one another. One is a print-and-play origami duel, while the other has me running through a maze rescuing critters from a badass villain!

Did I just play the most brutal print-and-play to date?

Hell yeah!

My review blog for Bravery just went live, and what can I say? This game had me malnourished, thirsty, low on stamina, hypothermic, and chased by bears and wolf packs.

Yet, I couldn’t stop!

Built my kingdom. Torched everyone else’s. 🔥

My latest newsletter covers the 9th episode of Visual Playthrough, where you can watch me play 3 rounds of Dragon vs Kingdom’s 2nd edition.

Will the kingdoms withstand the wrath of fiery baby dragons?

What I mostly played this May #boardgames #sologames

Fifteen rounds. A Viking crew. And the North to rule!

Iron Quest: The First Ember caught my eye with its 3D printed tokens first, but the game had more waiting once the dice hit the table.

Read my review article to know whether the 3D tokens added to this roll-and-write experience, and how my quest to master the North went.

It happened folks!

I’ve always wondered what it would feel like to see a game cross paths with reality, and I’m so glad I got to witness this one up close.

Curry collaborated with a professional highliner for Rope Walkers, and it’s much more than a cool cameo. In my 96th issue, I shared Faith Dickey’s thoughts on highlining, and how she became part of the Rope Walkers universe.
