Gaming with Covid

Hey everyone! (You like how I’m pretending anyone is reading this…or rather…do I like how I’m pretending that anyone is reading this? I do!) If you are, in fact, here, then thank you! It’s been a bit. Got busy at the end of summer, and then I went to the county fair and caught Covid.

Thursday Game Night for Six!

Last Thursday our game night started two hours late because everyone had stuff going on. But six people made it, finally, and we tried a few card games and a tried and true classic. First, before members five and six showed, we busted out Scout. This is the second time we’ve played it. I’ve had

Game Night with 9 Players

As I’ve mentioned, I have a game night that meets every other Thursday night at 6 PM at my place. Attendance sit’s pretty steady at 6 or 7. We usually eat dinner, play a few games, and then end around 10:30. Last night we had nine people. NINE! And our group doesn’t like to split

Hey! You came back! I think you know the drill by now. I list my top 100 games and tell you about them. You read, scoff, and comment below about how there’s no way Candyland is a better game than Food Chain Magnate…or whatever. If you’re curious about how I’ve ranked things, check out the
