After the success I had playing The Mind, I was all over the idea of Medium, just to get that same spooky mind reading sort of feeling. I haven’t played this a lot, from my experience its a hit or a complete miss. It seems to really depend on who you are playing with. It…

Slapagories
I have a very soft spot for quick games and with good reason, they are easy to get people interested, the set up is fast and its takes nothing to explain the rules to get started. Scattegories is a great classic, but sometimes you want something a bit lighter, faster and with a tiny bit…
Nautilion
Nautilion is a beautiful game that can be played solo or as a cooperative game for two players. It was designed by Shadi Torbey and was published by Z-Man Games. It’s ages 10 and up and takes about 30 minutes to play. This is the first solo game I’ve wrote about and it’s a great…
Nintendo Switch – Ring Fit
Now that the Corona virus is keeping us all at home and my gym is closed, I thought I would post about the games I use to keep me moving. I will start this post by saying I’m not much into video games so don’t expect a lot from this category. To start this category…
Fun Employed
Another game that offers a little bit of creative thinking, in this game you are going to build a resume and get a job. Seems pretty relatable. This can be played with 3 or more players and is for 13 years and up. This game falls into a category with Cards Against Humanity or Superfight. …

Throw Throw Burrito
Throw Throw Burrito is a game that combines cards and throwing things. Something I didn’t know I wanted and turns out I definitely needed. I love this one, it’s made by the same people that brought us exploding kittens. I love that it keeps that style but has completely different gameplay, it’s fresh and it’s…
WTF (What the Fish) Card Game
My nephew got me this one for Christmas and we played quite a few rounds. I love fast paced card games so this fits in well for me. There were 4 of us in the game and I think it might be better with five or six but it was still a lot of fun….
Blockbuster
Blockbuster is an amazing game that game that came out this year. If you are looking for a last minute Christmas gift, a game for any family dinner or an evening with friends, I recommend picking up a copy. It will take about half an hour to play and is for ages 14 and up….
Jungle Speed
I’ve owned a copy of Jungle Speed for over 10 years. I remember playing it at a game night, before I really started building a collection and buying it almost immediately after. At that point as a non gamer, that was fairly significant. Now I’ll buy a game without thinking twice, I’m at the game…
