Spyfall… It’s a Party and the Spy’s Not Invited!
As a child I used to pretend I was a spy, sneaking around the house, seeing if I could follow members of my family without them knowing.
Tabletop Games
Robinson Crusoe: Adventures on the Cursed Island… Prepare to be Washed Away
Portal Games, can I call you Portal? In the last few months you guys have started to become one of my favourite game publishers.
Tatsu… Dragons Circle Overhead
I’ve talked recently about the Tokaido App, and before about Tsuro. The way they’re calm games which are interesting yet relaxing. I don’t know what it is about games starting with the letter ‘T’ but I’d put Tatsu in the same box.
Spot It!… Hits the Right Spot
Spot It! (the exclamation mark is important) is one of those games it’s easy to dismiss at first.
Dutch Blitz… The Story of How I was Wrong
Cards on the table (self-high-five for the pun), I would never have bought Dutch Blitz. In fact when Gateway to Games suggested sending it to me I told them it wasn’t my sort of thing.
Unlock! The Formula (Spoiler Free)… You Can’t Escape the Experience
When I say Unlock is an experience, I am in no way being metaphorical.
Burgle Bros…. Lets Rob a Bank
I knew I had to get my hands on Burgle Bros. So I got to work and formulated a plan of my own. I emailed Tim Fowers.
Zombicide: Black Plague… Unsheathe Your Blades
When you think about Zombies, what’s the first thing which comes to mind? Hoards of flesh eating, cannon fodder.
Forbidden Desert… Thirst for More
The setting – an ancient desert city with hidden artefacts. The mission – uncover the legendary flying machine. The catch – the desert is alive.
Scythe… Built for Power
Mechs. They’re awesome. Think about it. Machines built for pure power, destruction and combat across all sorts of terrains.
