✨ STARDEW VALLEY ✨ Playing this beautiful, cosy co-op game my son (and Oscar the cavoodle). We threw in a few house rules to make the game a little less punishing and a bit more relaxing - and we had a great time. A must-play for fans of the video game! #stardewvalleyboardgame #stardewvalley

🐠 FINSPAN 🐡 Unboxed and played this gorgeous game today with my son. Love the tweaks on the familiar Wingspan mechanics, such as hatching eggs into young and forming schools of fish by moving the young around on the board. Kudos to @stonemaiergames.com for a great addition to the "span" family.

Influencing the nobles whilst repairing Lisbon. #Lisboa is such an interesting game that requires you to balance many things whilst timing your actions. I really enjoyed my time with it, not sure where I rate it among the other Lacerda Games though. #boardgames #bgg #tabletop

Excited to talk about Tinderblox - it’s the cutest Jenga in the world’s smallest package. So much fun in such a small box. I’m sure they made those tweezers intentionally a bit shit to make the game unpredictably tense and fun! #tabletopgames #boardgamegateway #boardgames #familygames #tinderblox

Board game shopping in Tokyo 🇯🇵 and the small haul - a Japanese version of Knizia’s “No Mercy” and the adorably tiny Tinderblox. I had no idea Knizia had such a big presence in Japan, so many of his games here! What board games have you bought while shopping overseas? #boardgames #reinerknizia

Played the supremely epic War of the Ring today. 4.5 hours of tension, culminating in the shadow army rushing all the Nazgûl to Rivendell for the final battle. Meanwhile, Sam and Frodo were one step away from the crack of Mount Doom before tragically being overcome by the corruption of the ring.

CanCon Game #4 - City of Pig Shoulders Take an 18xx game, remove the choo choo’s and add a worker placement phase that requires you to pay the other companys to use their actions!! I’ve heard mixed things. I LOVED IT. Great cap to day #1 #boardgames #bgg #cancon

We started our channel in May of 2022. We had no idea of what we wanted from it other than an outlet to talk games and maybe get some free games to help bolster our collections. Given how niche Board Game content is 250 subscribers seemed so far away. 3 days ago we passed that milestone.
