Rating: 3.3/5

Food Fight Review

Food Fight is goofy, quick, and packed with wacky food battles. Great with a group, but luck decides most fights! Fun for parties—not for hardcore strategists like me craving more control.

Twixt: Box Cover Front
Rating: 4.5/5

Twixt Review

Twixt is the brainy game your competitive cousin always wins, but you keep wanting to play anyway. No dice, pure tactics, and plenty of chances for humble pie. Seriously, bridges have never sounded so dramatic.

Taverna: Box Cover Front
Rating: 4.5/5

Taverna Review

Taverna tosses you into a wild night of bribery, beer, and backstabbing. The art’s a treat, the rules are simple, and the only thing messier than my last game was the bar floor!

Rating: 4.5/5

Secrets Review

Secrets is a sneaky, laughter-filled game of hidden teams and betrayal. Play brings wild twists every round. Perfect for groups who love bluffing, but beware—it might ruin a friendship or two (in the best way).

Sherwood: Box Cover Front
Rating: 4.5/5

Sherwood Review

Sherwood blends sharp bluffing and skill, with barely any luck in the mix. Gorgeous art and fast games keep me coming back—plus, my friends actually talk to me after playing. It’s a merry hit at my table!

Nimble - Nimble, Edition Spielwiese/Pegasus Spiele, 2018 — front cover (image provided by the publisher) - Credit: W Eric Martin
Rating: 4.5/5

Nimble Review

Nimble is a rapid-fire card game that makes my heart race and my hands sweat. It’s pure chaos in a good way, but you’ll need reflexes faster than a caffeine-fueled squirrel to win.

Mythos Tales: Box Cover Front
Rating: 3.8/5

Mythos Review

Mythos looks amazing and the theme sucked me in, but the dice had other plans for my sanity. Fun with friends, but beware the chaos—luck loves to crash the party!

Terminator Salvation: Box Cover Front
Rating: 3.1/5

Terminator Salvation Review

Terminator Salvation packs flashy minis, frantic dice rolls, and a dash of nostalgia. Fun for fans of the franchise, but if you hate losing to bad luck, this machine might make you wish you’d sent yourself back in time.

Got It!: Box Cover Front
Rating: 4.5/5

Got It! Review

Got It! is a brain-tickling word game where teamwork matters more than luck. If you like clever clues and trading laughs over groans, this one’s a winner—just avoid playing with that one friend who overthinks everything.

Boxes: Box Cover Front
Rating: 4.5/5

Boxes Review

Boxes wastes no time with tricky rules. You grab a pen, argue over lines, and by the end you've made new rivals—er, friends. Quick, crude fun for anyone who likes to block, claim, and gloat.
