Root and The Riverfolk Expansion Review

If I had 172 fingers, I could count the number of times our audience asked us to review Root on all my fingers. I have only ten fingers, unless you count toes as fingers, in which case I have twenty! (fun fact: in Lithuania toes are called feet fingers). But enough about Lithuania, let’s review Root, one of the most exciting games of 2018! In this dazzlingly beautiful and artistically unprecedented game of war you’ll take on the role of a cutesy woodland faction, and it won’t take long until things go very very wrong. How wrong? Only one way to find out.


Blackout: Hong Kong Review

Long time No Pun Included viewers will know that, hey, we have some strong feelings when it comes to games designed by Alexander Pfister. And when I say “strong feelings,” I mean that we love his meatier, grindier games as much as we love a good burger. Which leads me perfectly into telling you that Great Western Trail is one of our favourite eurogames and game of the year for 2016 and Mombasa, in-spite of its problematic theme, was our runner up game of the year for 2015.

So I’m not going to waste time, because Blackout: Hong Kong, his new big game, is here, and my word I am just a little bit excited. Let’s get to the review.
