Chopper Strike
There are so many great looking games from the 70’s and 80’s. Games that were probably too expensive at the time. Games that just had table presence to spare. Sub Search was one such game. Edward and…
Finspan with Expansion Sharks & Reef
A lot of past guests have mentioned Elizabeth Hargrave’s Wingspan as an answer to a question. Whether as the current game, 60 minute game, or just in passing, there is no denying Wingspan’s impact on…
Catch 33 by Buddy Pal Games
Well, Facebook ads’s algorithm targeted me perfectly, again. While doomscrolling (which I have tried very hard NOT to do lately), an ad for a new dexterity game came across my feed. It was for a game…

The Game of Life: Rivals Edition
The Game of Life is one of my least favorite games to play. It has zero strategy and few decisions. And, with these decisions, you must make the most optimum one, or risk (another classic game)…
Tecmo Bowl: The Board Game
I don’t want to say that Edward is all in on this IP book, but as we were strolling through Target, he spotted a game. His pitch, “It’s an IP, Dad. We need it for the book!” So, without hesitation,…
Monopoly: Rivals Edition
Another fun series of games that I discovered through my research was the Hasbro "Rivals Editions." In this series, Hasbro took one of its classics and boiled it down to a two-player, mano y mano…
Operation: Brain Surgery
You know me. I love to give credit where credit is due. While reading the book, Who’s in the Game? by Terri Tolles Patkin, I came across an interesting variant to Operation; Operation: Brain Surgery.…
U-Build Mouse Trap
In 2010, Hasbro released five games in this U-Build series. I was only familiar with the Monopoly version, so I was excited to try U-Build Mouse Trap, a variant of the 1963 staple.U-Build Mouse Trap…

King of Tokyo: Duel
Just a routine reading of Board Game Geek put me onto the release of today’s focus game, King of Tokyo: Duel. There was a banner ad on the homepage. From there, a quick click over to my local game…
