  • Copycat

    What comes out when you take two popular games, add some dashes of more games, and then run that mix through a cocktail shaker? That’s what Friedemann Friese wanted to know when he created Copycat from odds and ends of the Top Ten games on BoardGameGeek. And what came out … well, read for yourself.

  • Innovation

    Just when you thought that every way to play with cards had been published somewhere already, along comes a game like Innovation. With some – dare I use the word – innovative game mechanics and many ways to make sabotage your opponents’ strategy, you probably haven’t played a card game quite like this one before.

  • Elysium

    Usually, when a game tells you to create your own legend, it doesn’t mean you should kill the people participating in it. But when the game is named after the Greek underworld for heroes and demigods it was predictable that they would have to get there somehow, and the usual way is dying. But at least they will contribute to your legend and maybe help secure your place on Olympus.

  • Bohemian Villages

    Ah, Bohemia, land of the dice, where the fate of whole families hinges on a few rolls of the metaphorical bones. The locals didn’t mention anything about that when we passed through on our vacation, but it’s probably one of those things you don’t discuss with outsiders. Being a village boy myself, I can relate to that. When someone passed through our village, we also didn’t tell him who’s life had been ruined by the dice. But in Bohemia, or at least in Reiner Stockhausen’s Bohemian Villages, the dice have a much more direct influence on the not-quite-meeple-people’s lives. The dice decide what career they can take and sometimes to which village they have to move.

  • Isle of Skye: From Chieftain to King

    I admit, I didn’t expect that one day a traditional, competitive eurogame would be in the majority for the Kennerspiel des Jahres selection. But here we are, next to Pandemic Legacy and T.I.M.E. Stories, both cooperative games with a limited number of replays in the box Isle of Skye is the only competitive game with virtually unlimited replayability. Lets have a look if it’s worthy of the nomination.

  • Columba

    Rearing pidgeons is such a peaceful, placid hobby, isn’t it. A game about it must be full of zen, a meditation exercise with tiles. Wrong! Columba is a very interactive tile laying/area control game with lots of options to mess with your opponents.

  • Masters of Commerce

    Everywhere you look lately, the news are about the economy. It’s boring , like a roller coaster you’re not allowed to ride. Masters of Commerce allows you to experience the same roller coaster, but instead of finding a bridge when you lost everything, you can have fun going bankrupt.
