  Played 14 Frantic Minutes for the first time this weekend. Now, I don't normally love the real-time strategy games. Honestly, I  find them too stressful and I can't think straight when under pressure. But WOW! This game was so much FUN! It takes just a few minutes to learn and exactly 14 minutes to play.  It's a speed game where players work together to make connections on a central board using polyomino shaped pieces before time runs out.   #CooperativeGames #BoardGam...

  Schooled is a very clever 2-player strategy game where the bigger fish eat the smaller fish but growing your school together can help smaller fish fight off the more powerful fish. And the smallest fish can kill the largest fish in this game. Interesting strategic choices that at times makes the game feel like Chess and other times like a Knizia game.  Full disclosure: I did the graphic design (not the art) and rulebook layout for this game.

  Played #WorldMonuments on 2026-09-27 with 2 players. Not a fan of this one. Seems very one-sided with 2 players. Might be better with 3 or 4. #bgstats

  We finally got to play #Dimension again. This is a cool little puzzle game and I admire the creativity that it takes to develop a game like this. But I'm not sure that I really enjoy it. It's a timed game and when I play it, I can feel the pressure in my chest. #stressful #bgstats

  Ever hear a noise that reminds you of something else? Then you can't get that noise out of your head and you find yourself wandering around repeating that noise over and over until your wife threatens to take out your tongue? Can you guess what noise our dishwasher was making a couple of days ago? #Kenner #StarWars #StarWarActionFigures #Droids

  Dimension is a very clever abstract puzzle game. Players race to stack their coloured spheres making sure to follow all the rules for placement detailed on the randomly drawn cards. Rules include things like, "you should have more orange spheres than blue," "you should only use two green spheres," or "nothing can be stacked on to of white spheres." Dimension plays 1-4 players, ages 8 & up in about 30 minutes. Designed by #LaugeLuchau...

  That time I created my own version of the game Botswana. I had a lot of fun designing the cards. Gotta pull this one again sometime. I remember enjoying this really simple Knizia game. #CardGames #Homemade #DIY #BoardGame #Botswana

  Piles! A Fast-Paced Free-For-All is another really fun real-time racing game.  Players compete to sort thru several piles of cards trading a card a time from their hand to the middle of the table until all the cards in each pile are the same. #BoardGame #PartyGame #realtimegame #Piles

  We are just about ready to pack up for the last time at Breakout Toronto.  It's been a great convention!  So many people to meet, games to play, designers and special guests, contests to win. So many happy, friendly people.  I love it here.   I'm coming home with 5 new-to-me board games. The organizers and volunteers do stick an amazing job! #BreakoutToronto #BreakoutCon #Breakout2026

  Forest Floor is a set collection card game , with tons of cards, really beautiful art and easy-to-learn rules that make it approachable and quick to jump into. The theme is a little light - I never really felt like I was planting, growing or mulching during the game. And the game did feel pretty aggressive for a game about plants - there is a lot of "Take That" in the game play.

  Vivid Memories is a pattern building game about collecting fragments of childhood memories weaving them together to match patterns. The game has interesting, we'll-made components, some drafting and a middle phase that gives you plenty of choices to move things around before scoring.  Not as popular as games like Azul but this is an excellent option if that's your jam. #BoardGaming #VividMemories
