Saturday solo game…. “Club fight”. It’s good! But I need the player aid to remember which actions are blocked!

Train gods took sympathy today…. I arrived 1 minute late (as per special power…) and the train was 5 min late 🙌

Leanne @silvylea.bsky.social · 16/09/2026

Not to brag but …. I have a very unique skill of ALWAYS being exactly 1 minute late for my train.

There is nothing better than finishing work at 01:00 in the morning and then being wide awake.

Did @adambght.bsky.social From @boardgamehottakes.bsky.social make a game? … a game where you guess the puns. Perfect match.

What a sweet little puzzle: Cities. We played in Rio and NYC today!

Leanne @silvylea.bsky.social · 09/08/2026

It has been a hot minute since this game has been on the table. Century golem eastern mountains. I think I may prefer it to the slick OG.

A little heatwave learning game ready for dinner party on Friday …. Late to the party!

Back to the table. What a lovely way to Carcassonne before bed 🛌

Leanne @silvylea.bsky.social · 18/07/2026

I am genuinely hyped for this little game. Went to buy some Pokemon cards and saw him just sitting there on the side…. Looking lonely! So I brought him home

Leanne @silvylea.bsky.social · 11/07/2026

Dive charmers fan made solo mode with an improvised dice tray. I like exploring multiplayer games solo as a little puzzle sometimes 🙂

Friday heatwave / final day off work …. 💜

Leanne @silvylea.bsky.social · 09/07/2026

Well…. In Norfolk we played a grand total of 3 games (crystallo x3, dice charmers x3 and scoundrel x2). We just explored, ate, drank and rested. Home now 😔 and ready to hide away for the next few days of the heatwave 🥵

030

Leanne @silvylea.bsky.social · 06/07/2026

Sometimes the games I play are dictated by the space I have available. On a mini break in Norfolk to explore the beaches, landmarks and seal colony. The cozy little cottage has a low coffee table and a v small outdoor table. I see card games and roll n writes in my future! ☺️

Saturday summer evening …. Tv in the background, lovely chill card game on the table and home made green slushi cocktails in the belly. 10/10

Leanne @silvylea.bsky.social · 08/06/2026

Solo solstis type of day. Quite a cute little solo / 2p game ☺️

Last heatwave day before I need to pull myself together and work 😳. Learned Puerto Rico, played Santorini for the first time this year and returning to a classic. Azul continues to hit 💜

Leanne @silvylea.bsky.social · 24/05/2026

Heatwave in Uk…. So I’m camping in the living room, using it as a cave and playing slay the spire. Between this, scoundrel and cribbage…. I may not play a board game until my friends come over on Friday evening!

@tombrewster.bsky.social - as your channel is staunchly against any use of AI whatsoever, and you avoid anything that does use it - what platform you are moving all your monetised SUSD video content to since you must mean you’re moving away from YouTube (a platform that uses AI).

Today has been spent learning more solitaire card games. I’m a little obsessed. Also….. my first ever game of cribbage in real life. I could be hooked. ☺️

Watching snooker semi finals while playing another great design by Mark Tuck! Snooker solitaire. Gosh where has this game been all my life. It’s got my name written all over it.

April in games…. A month of: 1. Some time off work to rest 2. A short break abroad with extended family 3. Discovering the joy of 6 new games in a 52 card deck 4. Game night with friends

Final game in the trilogy. Can’t believe I have played orchard so much for a couple of years and didn’t print Grove and Forage until yesterday 🤦‍♀️

020

Leanne @silvylea.bsky.social · 30/04/2026

Print and play Grove with a substitute wheelbarrow and squirrel! 🙄

Leanne @silvylea.bsky.social · 30/04/2026

Awww I think I love grove as much as orchard!

Late to the party. I am conflicted over this. I’m having a lovely relaxing time, which is what the doctor ordered. But at the same time I’m like “why am I doing this?!” 😂. Half way through year 4 and I doubt it will be packed away from the table until the game is complete. What a weird vibe.

020

Leanne @silvylea.bsky.social · 25/04/2026

2 yrs ago when I was quite stressed and moving jobs, I couldn’t face complex games or rules. I picked qwirkle up for a holiday and now, it’s just one of those games I turn to when I’m trying to relax. My relaxation cocktail of games is currently a blend of qwirkle, azul, toy battle and fromage. 💜

Leanne @silvylea.bsky.social · 25/04/2026

An afternoon walking around Torquay in the “English riviera” complete. Now…. Recharge with a few games of ‘scoundrel’. What a great little solo game!
