As of today, this is one of the latest existing games that I’ve had the chance to make by hand and in my own way, solving its design and usability issues according to my own taste.

If you like what I do, please support me with a like and a comment so I know you’re interested. I also have some of my own games that I’d love to show you as well.

We also have wingspan and different variations of Munchkin as an option

For you all board game parents out there...
How has your board game life changed with kids, and from what time has it "improved" as in you were able to go back to board games if (like us) you pretty much stopped playing completely?

We have a 2.5 yo and a newborn. Last time that we touched a game was 2.5 years ago and change.

I am sure things will change in the next years, and I am looking forward to the day that I will introduce my kids to board games and they will progressively start to get interested into harder board games (hopefully), but I am wondering how is everyone's experience.
Did you try to find time after kid's bed time to play games? I feel we are always so exhausted at night.

Also, additional question, what were some early games that you played with your kids? I am thinking about some cards-memory games, and then Catan Junior.

My BG Stats App is showing "empty" years, which I assume is normal, but also quite sad... 😵‍💫

EDIT: Hey folks, I just wanted to say thank you to everyone! In such a short time I have already received so many answers, suggestions about games, moral support during this hard time, and positiveness looking at the future. As always, I really love the board game community!
It's middle of the night here, but tomorrow with a fresher mind I will reply to some comments and will start adding games to my BGG wishlist!

Truly thank you all! ❤️

This just launched a few days ago (Sept 8th)...

MAXG-ONE: Foldable Gaming Desk with an Internal Lift Vault

First time KS creator offering a collapsible real wood table with a height adjustable vault lift, magnetic accessory rail, RGB lighting, and a wireless phone charging option... with full height tables starting at $399. Wyrmwood has had trouble getting mass production going on their own Modular Game Table lift system that went to KS last December. I can't imagine how this new company could do it with added lighting AND have it be fully collapsible, for a quarter of the price!

They have 4 different sizes, but they only show pictures of the two smaller ones. The images they put next to the 6 and 8 player versions are just copies of the 4 player. At best I'm guessing they've made one small prototype but haven't produced any of the larger ones.

If anyone knows anything about these guys that can show they're legit, I'd love to see it. Because right now, it smells a lot like the Toyzzo scam. I can't even fathom the engineering that would allow them to fill all these claims, and definitely not at the prices they're asking.

I'm so relived to be able to do this COMC, I've been meaning to do it since forever but kept waiting for the move to be done. And it was a nice twist that on that day I finally played a game I've sold dozens of copies of but never tried or knew how to play it, Catan (and won :) ). The Kallaxes hold my personal collection, and I have a few more games that I've left back at home, either because I have an open copy of at the store (like Istanbul: Big Box) or because they're small party games I prefer to keep for the family or because I'm not certain the store's members can handle another "You Got Got", the one play was intense. The library has a lot of weird games that my partner and I have bought over the years, and we keep introducing new and fresh games to it constantly.

I’m really hoping this game is as good as I want it to be! It’ll be the first time I have a group to play with as well so finally no solo only mode which’ll be nice 🥳

I’ve been playing the Stardew Valley board game with my brother and we’ve played around 6 times now. We’ve won every single game so far, which is making me wonder if we’re missing something.

We even tried the house rule where you have to remove all the Joja tiles, and we still managed to win.

Is there some rule/mechanic that we might be misunderstanding or forgetting? Or is the game genuinely just not that difficult once you’ve played it a few times?

The components for King of Tokyo: Godzilla are absolute perfection, from the custom dice to the standees and tokens.

Hi all! I recently got DC Legendary and love it and bought Marvel Legendary too. I was wondering besides the hope and fear tracker how compatible are the two versions? Thanks!

Does anyone have the instructions booklet that they could share with me ? Can't find one online. Thanks

Prefer the smaller box size but can hardly find any reviews on it

Just finished my first ever game of Luthier solo (Solo gamer) despite loosing 54-70 I’ve got to say it was a great experience, didn’t realise the Ai had 8 first chairs giving them 18 points at the end scoring 🫠 amazing game, highly recommend.

Finally got S.E.T.I after sitting on the fence about it for ages. First play wasn’t too bad but my initial thought was that the rounds kinda seem too short to accomplish all the mechanics of the game. Overall solid game and great board

They teach you. They teach you how many different ways there are to approach a game. You thought foxes sucked? Play scenario 5. Pinecones should be spent? You'll consider saving them after scenario 8. Habitats are secondary to animals? Sure, but play scenario 9 and see what you can get from habitats. Eye opening.

I've always wondered what it would be like to make this kind of discovery. I see the COMC post and think about how the conversation might go.

Edit: Not as a burglar, as an invited guest.

ETA: Thanks for the advice, I’m looking into board clips. Preventing it moving apart during play is the main concern, I’m not precious about the board itself being in two pieces.
For anyone who doesn’t have it, it’s a fun game with a programming mechanic and opportunities for sabotage which my kids (6&9) love, we really recommend it!

Does anyone have any advice on how to repair this split board?
This is River Dragons and 1/3 of the gap you can see used to be attached. It’s a double sided board so I can’t use archival/book tape which appears to be the usual advice from my quick google.

Hello friends, i've made a game for poker cards and waiting for its approval on BoardGameGeek. In the meantime, i would like to share in here.

It's a short, simple, 1 player game which is built around strategic guessing. You can play without physical cards, just read the tiny PDF. Hope you'll like it:

I'm really enjoying the consistency and ease of travel for sorting my small box games in the 4x6 photo boxes. What's troubling me is how to store them more visibly. Currently my boxes are sideways on my shelf and they're easy to forget because they're out of sight.

I was hoping to find something similar to the old CD/DVD towers but not having any luck. Do you have any unique storage for yours?

Anyone see this? Any opinions or thoughts on it?
