Cretaceous Rails – More Than Toys in a Box – Components Overview

A while back we wrote a few articles about an ongoing Kickstarter project called Cretaceous Rails. The game had players creating train lines through a jungle, touring guests and allowing them to see dinosaurs in the wild, capturing dinosaurs, chopping down trees, and more. The game seemed pretty unique in what it was trying to accomplish, but unique doesn’t always mean success. While our review of the game will be a bit yet, let’s run down what you get in…

Storm Raiders Board Game Review

Big, grandiose games are not something we review often at GamesReviews.com because they take so much effort to get tabled, and require a decent player count to fairly review the product. We get a lot of these types of games into the office, but not all of them make it to the review stage.

Western Legends is a pretty old game at this point, but still one worth looking into. If you’ve been missing this…
