If you've read past reviews I've written, you know the main reason I acquired Vabaunque (Winning Moves, 2001 Bruno Faidutti and Leo Colovini). It's...
Collecting dice has always been a hobby of mine. Even though I'm not extremely fond of games that are totally based on the rolling of dice, such as Yahtzee...
On a geek list at www.boardgamegeek.com, I was reading some comments, and one gamer stated that "Italy was simply not known for its vast quantity of hard-core...
Familiar components abounded when I opened the box of Diceland (Kidult Games, 2002 Spartaco Albertarelli). As a dice lover, I was pleased to see forty...
When I first opened the box for Capt'n Clever (Rio Grande Games, Gigamic, 2003 Liesbeth Bas), I wondered where the game was, since each player had only two...
Coyote (Kidult Games, 2003 Sparteco Albertarelli) is the first Kidult game without the word "dice" in the title, or with dice in the game. I had heard...

Sometimes our wishes come true. Thus was the case of Pirate's Cove (Days of Wonder, 2003 Paul Randels and Daniel Stahl). I've always wanted to play...
Please tell me that pic of FA was taken in America and not Korea. I brought my copy of it back from the states last month and was hoping to lay claim to having...
Actually, it WAS taken here in Korea. Sorry to spoil your uniqueness. :) Those aren't the laser towers, they are pieces from an "expansion" that we were...
There is usually a lot of controversy on the internet about the Spiel des Jahres winners. People usually harangue the judge's decisions, and talk about the...
This is a list of the top ten games (from about 50) that I've played that have been released this year - 2003. Of course, I haven't played most of the games...

I just read Tom Vaselations ( http://www.vaseline.com/ )list and thought the reading public might want another perspective. While I have not played many new...
