Harmonies Coming from Studio Libellud via Asmodee

"Harmonies is not just any game. Yes, you will draw tiles and compete with your opponents to create the best combinations... But the experience goes much further.

Why I Don’t Review Games on Board Game Arena

Here at GamesReviews we get approached more and more often by publishers and developers to check out their games and give our impressions of them.

Mythwind Unboxing and Components Review

Mythwind is doing something brand new in board gaming – many folks have asked me to recommend a game like Mythwind so they can get an idea of what to expect. Honestly, I’m not sure I can, because in the board game space, Mythwind stands on its own! The best comparison I can give you is that this is something like a Harvest Moon / Story of Seasons, or perhaps a Stardew Valley. It’s relaxing. It’s cozy. There is no…
