Getting Started

Played Hand of Fate: Ordeals yesterday, a deck builder/dungeon crawler with a fun strength progression as you move through the levels. Our final battles against the king were epic—I won in the last battle, blind drawing the 1 card I needed. Only downside is very hard to thin your deck. #boardgames

Been playing The Fellowship of the Rings TTG solo. Started a bit slow but challenging as you get deeper. Great to play a trick taker even when alone. “I’m going on an adventure!” #LordOfTheRings #boardgames #cardgames

Episode 38 is live! We start in France, making the Loire Valley our valley in The Castles of Burgundy. Then it’s off to Vienna to sleep the night away at the Grand Austria Hotel. And, finally, we help one of these games check out as we face them off in the Battle of the Funnest! #boardgames

Pete and his buddy got Spirit Island to the table. It was a big day for the Invaders! #boardgames #spiritisland

Been getting Whistle Mountain from @beziergames.bsky.social to the table recently. Pete introduced me to it and I (Chris) bought it the next day. A fun puzzle with plenty of opportunities to be clever. #boardgames #games #tabletopgames

Played The Age of Atlantis with my son recently. The first two ages often feel too short, but we always enjoy the play. #boardgames #tabletop
