Lucas Zellers @lucaszellers.bsky.social · 21/09/2026🧵 Tabletop micro review: I loved playing this 1994 classic with a group of my fellow nostalgic history nerds, trading geography questions and favorite "did you knows," but I'm weird like that. I wouldn't say it's a good game, though: it has all the frustration and bad pacing of Clue and Monopoly. 152

Lucas Zellers @lucaszellers.bsky.social · 10/08/2026Tabletop micro review: ROOT is for people who like winning on a technicality. Its asymmetrical factions mean your time will be spent checking obscure rules interactions in an overstuffed rulebook. Only play with people you enjoy arguing with. @leder.games 020

The art in this game is licensed from Fifty-nine Parks, in the style of original poster designers like Dorothy Waugh and Charley Harper.

Lucas Zellers @lucaszellers.bsky.social · 16/07/2026Tabletop micro review: SCOUT is a fast-paced trick-taking game with a betting component, simple and yet brilliantly fun. But its best trick isn’t its gameplay - it’s the bits. They're just numbers and colors. You can play SCOUT across language barriers and it's still fun. @oinkgames.bsky.social 020
