Happy New Calendar Day!
We’ve been quiet over here, what with BGG.Con, Thanksgiving, local holiday game events, Christmas, New Years, being sick, and the distractions of life. It’s been a bit crazy, but there are things planned for 2015.

Machi Machi Man – A Machi Koro Review
I picked up Machi Koro recently due to all of the times I’ve heard the game name brought up. I played a two player game of it the night I got it, as well as a three and four player game this past weekend. Is the talk hype or is it legitimate buzz?
Blinded by the Light – A Lanterns Preview
I got to check out a few new games at Gen Con 2014. One of my favorites was Lanterns, which is live on Kickstarter now. The game is gorgeous and has some really interesting mechanics that make it stand out to me.
All Hands on Deck Preview
I was sent a preview copy of All Hands On Deck, a pirate themed set collection game by Salamander Games. Does this game deserve to rule the seas, or should it be left in Davy Jones’ locker?
Breaking the shrink
I recently did my inventory, and while it’s not 100% complete, it’s most of the way through, and I’m finding that there are just a lot of games that I own and haven’t played. I feel that this isn’t right, so I’m making a push to play new games.
Post Gen Con 2014 – 56,614 Gamers
The stats are out! There were 56,614 attendees at Gen Con 2014 with a turnstile attendance of 184,699. It was a great time and I got to see a lot of games, most of which were on my list. There were some surprises, but that’s part of the fun of Gen Con!
