You Can’t Say Umm

You Can’t Say Umm is a party game that challenges you to do the impossible and not say Umm when giving clues. If that isn’t enough of a challenge, new rules will be added throughout the game. I really like this one. It’s a great length and doesn’t overstay it’s welcome. The components are good,…

Pickles to Penguins

Pickles to Penguins is about making connections between items that are unrelated. The connections need to be made as quick as possible to beat your opponents, making the game pretty tense. You are trying to get rid of all your cards as soon as possible. There’s a creativity in coming up with the connections. For…

Over-Rated The Card Game

Over-Rated is a game where you are leaving reviews for all sorts of different places. This plays like Cards Against Humanity or What Do You Meme. There’s definitely an audience for this, these type of party games are really popular and if you have overplayed Cards Against Humanity this could be a good option. The…

Pocket Samuri

Pocket Samurai is a two player mix of drafting and then card reveal. There are two phases the Dojo phase where you choose your cards and the Bushido Phase where you play them. Pocket Samurai is a small and fast game which uses that as it’s strength. The game comes in a durable small card…

Board Games for Halloween

It’s finally spooky season and also my favourite board game season. There’s so many halloween games available, if you add some decorations and themed snack and you have yourself quite a night. This list is in no particular order but some options if you are trying to put together an evening for friends this halloween…

Psycho Killer The Card Game

This one definitely has a killer theme. Psycho Killer is a card game that I think feels like a similar weight to Exploding Kittens or Unstable Unicorns, it isn’t as cute, but just as fun. This is a relatively quick card “take that” style game. There isn’t really anything that feels new with it, so…

Monster Fluxx

With Spooky season right around the corner, there’s no better time to talk about Monster Fluxx. Fluxx is a game with many different themes, so if you aren’t into Monsters, there are plenty of other versions to choose from. In Fluxx the rules are added as you go, making this one extremely easy to get…

The Game of Things

In the Game of Things you will pick a topic card, everyone will answer and you will guess what the other players said. I really like games where you write down an answer to prompts over games that give you answer cards. It tends to be a lot more creative and fitting to the group….

Onirim

In Onirim you are a Dreamwalker who is lost and you need to find the 8 doors to open. You will need to watch out for Nighmares, they will get you. There are a lot of them. This is my most played solo game. Since it’s just cards, it is really easy to take out…

That Escalated Quickly Card Game

That Escalated Quickly is quite the experience. Players will be asked a question and have to give an answer based on the number card they have received. One player will be guessing the order so your answer really needs to fit in the right spot. When I saw this it reminded me of Wavelength with…
