TIME Stories is one of my favourite aesthetics. I just love the clean white look on white shelves, it will always take pride of place! What's your favourite game to display for all to see? I need to get back into this game after a LONG time away from it, so many expansions to catch up on... Bob would be so disappointed in me 😂 for a change... [Mug by me @mintandmustard]

Board game cafe? FLGS? Your house? A friend's house? Where do you usually play games and where's your favourite place to play? We are mostly at ours or our friends house who we have a regular game night with. I've never played in any public spaces like cafés or conventions, although I have played in the pub if that counts? I'm a total shut in and love to stay at home mostly 😂

Audrey II is that you? 😍 So happy to add some more GORGEOUS artwork to Campy Creatures from @keymastergames with the expansion! Did you back it?

My Portal Games shelf is ever growing 😍 so excited to receive these beauties today. You all know I love me a good roll & write so can't wait to get the Imperial Settlers Roll & Write to the table! I don't know much about Empires of the North yet as there's not a lot of info out there and it I only arrived today, I will report back once I've delved into it a bit more! But it is a stand-alone card game based in the Imperial Settlers universe and from what little I've heard so far, it's not just a rehash of the original or anything like that, it's it's own game with it's own merits! I'll be honest though, I've not played Imperial Settlers 🙊 I have 51st State Master Set and felt I couldn't justify owning both? Was I wrong? Who here is a Settlers fan? Thank you @portalgamespl for these copies!

I've been really loving Inuit: The Snow Folk and the review is now on the blog if you'd like to know why! (Link in bio) I even go so far as to compare it to 7 Wonders 😯 it definitely goes in the 'would recommend' bracket if you like that kind of thing. It's a really stunning game and I was glad it's lived up to it's beauty with some strong gameplay too! Now I feel like I need to expand my tableau building collection 🤔 what's your favourites? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ [Review copy supplied by @boardanddice thank you!]

Possibly my new favourite roll & write! Welcome to Dino World from @alleycatgames is a really nice thinky puzzle of a game. And we haven't even tried the Danger mode yet! It's definitely got a feel of Welcome to but it's more strategic in my opinion and less reliant on the luck of the draw. It also plays really quickly so I can see this hitting the table often. I'm also interested to see how the visitor objectives play differently with more than 2 players so I'll definitely take it to our next game night! What's your favourite Roll & Write game?

I got a mysterious package from The Mysterious Package Company! I'm so excited to play this, it looks awesome! There are lots of mysterious packages available but this particular one is from Post Mortem Los Angeles a series of detective murder mystery experiences. It's called Death in La La Land and it has creepy clowns so what more could you want? This is everything that came in the box so no spoilers but lots of things to open and read through! There's a pulp-novel-styled book to narrate the story plus loads of papers, maps and intriguing evidence bags to open up at some point. Plus how cute is that pin and notebook! I'll do a spoiler free review once I've had a chance to play, has anyone else had to chance to try out one of the packages from @mysteriouspackageco ?

New review for Lost Cities: Rivals from @kosmosgamesuk, link in bio. If you like auction/bidding games be sure to take a look, I also go into the difference between Rivals and it's predecessor Lost Cities, if you are familiar with the original version! Are you a fan of Lost Cities? Does a more ruthless 4 player version appeal to you?

Welcome to... our home this weekend! Friends, beverages, and board games plus great weather makes for the perfect weekend! What did you play this weekend?
