Brian Boru: The High King of Ireland is the latest game from designer Peer Sylvester, also responsible for our 2020 Game of the Year - The King is Dead. This however, is a bigger grander feeling strategy game, full of clever twists and unexpected spins on familiar mechanisms.
Howdy bone fans. What a video today - a comprehensive review of everything ever published for Too Many Bones so far. In this monstrous video you’ll learn about the popular dungeon crawler, why you’d want to buy it, why you wouldn’t want to buy it and what to buy or not buy. Is it a buyer’s guide? Yes. Is it a critical analysis? Yes. Is it too long and overambitious? Yes. The game, or the video? Yes.
Enjoy!
What’s green and yellow and dicey all over? That’s right, it’s a sweetcorn salad, but also Railroad Ink Challenge. In this voluptuous follow-up to the roll-and-write genre’s darling superhit, publishing house Horrible Guild crams every idea under the sun. How in the world can it still be great? Well, it is, and I’m here to tell you why Railroad Ink Challenge is the followup that the original more than deserved.
Rather than an exhaustive review of all the little variants and expansions crammed into Railroad Ink Challenge, we decided instead to strip it down and expose the things that really do make it shine. If you’re hoping for grandiose comparison between Lush Green and Shining Yellow, then sadly, we don’t deliver. If you want to know just what makes Railroad Ink Challenge so nifty, you’ve come to the right place.
Today we have the pleasure and delight of shining a light on Sabotage, a strange strange design from board game extraordinaire Tim Fowers. Thematically, you’re either spies or supervillains fighting in a head to head game of cat and mouse. Mechanically… you’ve got a team asymmetrical hidden movement dice placement programming game which is something I had to learn to say out lout with confidence for this review. Does it all hold together or fall apart at the seams? Only one way to find out.
