Catan qualifiers are here again!

Settlers of Catan is an incredibly fun and popular boardgame. A pioneering Euro-boardgame (so-called, due to its origins from there) hit, the game is pretty much a staple in shops and boardgame cafes the world over, including Malaysia as well.   So, if you’ve played it, do you think you’ve got what it takes to […]

What do you game for?

Each one of us have a favorite hangout. My playgroup for instance, always play Blood Bowl: Team Manager – The Card Game in a shopping mall that’s near for everyone in the gang (Tropicana City Mall).   When we played Magic: the Gathering and then the World of Warcraft TCG, we alternated between the local […]

Risk Legacy in the house!

Next up: D&D 5th Edition!

Now, while I’ve never covered role-playing games (RPGs) such as Dungeons and Dragons (D&D), save for several special boxed introductory products that resemble boardgames that use miniatures and other special, cool-looking game aids, I think the next iteration of the iconic Wizards of the Coast product is worth a special mention.   After all, many […]

The Great War, straight up

If you like a hard-hitting, deep and strategic treatment of the First World War (often dubbed “The Great War”), why don’t you dig into GMT Games’ 2010 release Paths of Glory?   For those too young to remember, the cardboard-counters-on-mapboards sort of games were de rigeur back in the 1970s and 1980s. GMT Games is […]

Hot new version of Risk

Who hasn’t played or at least heard of Risk? The classic boardgame of world domination is one that still thrills yours truly, as many school holidays were spent battling and tussling for territories using wooden blocks and plenty of dice. Fast forward to today: Risk seems like an expired, tired cliche that seems sordidly out-of-place […]

Bloody Friday night (high)lights

No, I have not suddenly developed an urge for something that’s seriously macabre.   I’m talking about my game group’s latest obsession, Fantasy Flight Games’ (FFG’s) Blood Bowl Team Manager Card Game.   If a non-collectible card game that depicts no-holds barred, violent football strikes your fancy, then this game is it.   Players assume […]

What’s your favorite Halloween game?

It’s Halloween month! Okay so technically there’s no such thing as a “Halloween month”, but any gamer worth their salt would definitely be breaking out their favourite horror-themed games, as we inch towards the last day of the month. For me, the fact that Wizards of the Coast’s iconic trading card game (TCG) Magic the […]
