We are back with another small box, big game title from Allplay. Today we are taking a look at Mori, one of the more interesting trick tacking games that was recently released. For fans of trick taking games, I think this small box package provides a major bang for your buck, but you might feel differently. Let’s check it out and see if it’s right for you! In Mori, players will have a deck of cards in their hand and…

When it comes to phone reviews and GamesReviews, you know we focus on these devices as things for the common person, those wanting to play games, listen to some music, and watch some videos. We look at these not from a technical standpoint, but rather a useability stand point. It’s why, I believe, our phone reviews over the past few years have been so successful. This phone is definitely not for the common person, we need to state that off…

GamesReview is always excited when we are considered for Kickstarter preview coverage, but we still only choose to preview games we think we will enjoy. The trouble with doing preview work is you walk that fine line between being a marketing tool and actually providing solid coverage on a game. Thankfully, I’ve been having a blast with Welcome to Meeple Beach from the Table Golf Association, so everything you are about to read is my legitimate ...

Lunar is a pretty unique trick taking game and one that I had to play a few times before I really knew if I wanted to keep it around and play it long term. There is a lot of depth here, and while it is simplistic in how it works, the decision space in this game is huge, and veteran board game and card game players might have a logical leg up on the competition simply because they live and…

A brand new Mythwind campaign is launching today and you can get brand new content plus all the old stuff too!

Over the past few weeks, I have been playing Star Wars: Unlimited a lot, and one of the common factors across all my games is that I’m using a plethora of GameGenic products day-in and day-out, and all of them are must haves for those looking to invest in this game. From playmats to boxes, here is a quick review of all the products GameGenic was nice enough to send to us to review! Acrylic Tokens Unlike other Trading Card…

There is only one day left to back Ostia on Kickstarter, and don't forget about pledging any amount for access to other titles!

We are at it yet again with another Allplay board game review, and this is my most anticipated of the batch that Allplay sent over for us to look at. My wife and I love a good roll/flip and write game, and we also love games that utilize polyominoes. This can be ones you draw or ones you place – in this case, you’re drawing. We are taking a look at Mind Space! In Mind Space, players will be using…

Garden Geckos is the latest upcoming launch from Tin Robot Games. Can you score the most bugs in this cute title?

Settlers of Catan was a game I really loved back in the day, but have generally cooled on as more and more board games become available. I have a few issues with Settlers of Catan, but most of them revolve around either getting blocked by other players or just not getting the roles you need to win the game. Neither feels like something you can control, and when both happen at the same time, it can make for a really…
