My Top 10 Boardgames of All-Time
Having collected and played hundreds of different board games, I have accumulated a top 10 list for overall best games I’ve ever played. This list is made of my own personal best games, and I make no claim to have played all games out there (not even close). I also have a bias for short, […]
Quantum by FunForge
Let me start by saying, “I love this game.” It is easily in my top 10. I love games that have a hint of luck to introduce variability, but also rely heavily on strategy. Tiles for the “map” introduce a level of variability in each scenario too. This game introduces a small amount of randomness […]
