A Look Back at Most Played and Best New Games of 2018

December 26, 2018 by Moe T. Leave a Comment

First up, happy holidays to everyone reading this. I hope this season has been filled with games and gaming.

With 2018 coming to and end I thought this would be a good time to do a look back at the past year. The way the timing works out we will be recording our last podcast of the year on Boxing Day and that episode will release on New Years Day. So I thought this would make for a great discussion topic for that show.

I'm going to be looking at my most played games of 2018. I will follow that up with a list of some of the best new games of 2018 as well as my biggest surprise of 2018. [ READ MORE ]

A day of Ramen and Games – Tabletop Gaming Weekly

December 10, 2018 by Moe T. Leave a Comment

My wife and I finally had a weekend free and were able to hit up the local FLGS game night on Saturday.

We started off with Azul, then played a two player game of Terra Mystica, and finished off the night with a four-player game of Terraforming Mars. It was nice to get out of the house and get some gaming in again. This was our first time back at The CG Realm since Extra Life. [ READ MORE ]

The Table Sat Empty – Tabletop Gaming Weekly

November 12, 2018 by Moe T. 4 Comments

This week I spent no time at the game table. That's right. Not once did I sit down and play a game with friends around the table. I think our Extra Life event, which I talked about last week, wiped everyone out. I know it took it's toll on me.

Now, that doesn't mean I didn't get in any gaming at all. I did manage to finish up a few games on Board Game Arena. [ READ MORE ]

October 15, 2018 by Moe T. Leave a Comment

This week involved some gaming with the kids, online, with friends, and at the FLGS. Can't complain.

After doing an unboxing video for Maki Stack, I played a few rounds with the kids. Online I finished a game of Terra Mystica. At The CG Realm, I played Istanbul: the Dice Game and Hamsterrolle. I also got to try Timeline for the first time and take part in a playtest for The Earth is Ours! Back at home we also got in a scenario of Gloomhaven. [ READ MORE ]

It was a good week for me gaming wise. Quite a few games in both digital and in person.

Online I'm still playing Race for the Galaxy, 7 Wonders and lots of Tokaido. In person, we continued our Gloomhaven campaign and I got Istanbul: The Dice Game and the new printing of Saint Petersburg off my pile of shame. Then yesterday I hosted Thanksgaming where we got in plays of Lanterns: The Harvest Festival, Fuse, and Fallout. [ READ MORE ]
