As always, passing by March makes time feel like it's moving fast; we're now a quarter of the way through the year! We had a visit to our South coast friends which saw some more 4-player experiences of games we all normally play at 2. And we finally got the chance to see what all… Continue reading And that was March 2025

And that was February 2025
Despite starting February with a gaming high, it went quickly downhill thanks to me becoming ill on the 2nd and not getting any better until the 16th. This meant that not a lot of games were played over the first couple of weeks of February, and our challenges were left wanting. And what of that… Continue reading And that was February 2025
And that was 2024!
Farewell 2024, and hello 2025. The last 12 months have been, once again, a fantastic time for gaming. We've continued having our visits to fellow Instagram gamers, there were still a nice amount of new games coming in, and our 2024 Challenges were all almost completed (that's right, we failed one). As with last years… Continue reading And that was 2024!
And that was November 2024
As we close in on the end of this year it's that time when outstanding personal Board game challenges are hunted down, where Top 50 lists are created, and where gaming becomes cosy on those dark, dark evenings. November was a month with less plays than are normal pace. There's no real reason for this… Continue reading And that was November 2024
And that was October 2024
The clocks have gone back and the nights are drawing in. It's a cosy time of year to play board games. KICKSTARTER ARRIVALS October was a good month for Kickstarter arrivals, mostly because one of my most anticipated pledges turned up. UNCONSCIOUS MIND from @fantasiagames is now one of the most gorgeous games in our… Continue reading And that was October 2024
And that was September 2024
As we head towards Autumn, we still have lots of games playing days on the calandar, and September was no exception. KICKSTARTER ARRIVALS After months of small card games or nothing at all, September saw the first big box arrival in a while with the ANDROMEDA'S EDGE all-in pledge. I'd just missed DWELLINGS OF ELDERVALE… Continue reading And that was September 2024
And that was July 2024
It's so hot that all of our board games are melting! Just kidding. But damn, is it hot. And with the way sun hits our house in the afternoon and evening, we quite often feel like gaming but have to skip. So definitely less plays this July. New games continue to be thin on the… Continue reading And that was July 2024
And that was June 2024
The end of May and beginning of June was UKGE 2024, but unfortunately we were unable to attend this year due to money and a busy schedule. So instead we got to view the convention through the accounts we follow on social media. We are looking at fitting in a trip to UKGE 2025, finances… Continue reading And that was June 2024
And that was April 2024
Quarter of the year gone by and winter is definitely behind us now as the sun is beginning to come out. We've had a great month of gaming with a visit to CajunCon (an Instagram meetup that didn't require us to drive for 2 hours plus). We've also been having a lot of fun with… Continue reading And that was April 2024
And that was March 2024
Quarter of the year gone by and winter is definitely behind us now. KICKSTARTER ARRIVALS The month started in style with my copy of SHIPWRIGHTS OF THE NORTH SEA: REDUX turning up, along with the big box for EXPLORERS OF THE NORTH SEA. Now all our Medieval Trilogy games are in matching sized boxes. With… Continue reading And that was March 2024
