Should I get Beast and it’s expansions?

Hi, so as the title says I’m considering backing beast: ashfall and getting everything in one go and was hoping for people’s thoughts on the game? I haven’t played one vs many before, but the art and the reading of the mechanics sounded interesting. The other reason is I’m trying to find something my fiance would like.

A boardgame "Go Bag" as it were.

So I love getting people into games. I started thinking about how can I make a board game go bag so to speak. A bag or case that's small enough to grab and go for when people want to try getting into the hobby? Something I can throw on the car and bring to the pub or a gathering. I was thinking of carrying games fo

Retreats, cruises, or vacation info for 26-27?

I'm looking to go on a board game vacation solo, but am not sure which one might be the best option for me. Has anyone gone to any of the popular retreats or cruises (dice tower, bgg, etc.)? Any tips for what might be best for a married solo woman who wants to play light to middle weight games? Tonight's game f

Strategies for Twisted Cryptids?

Boyfriend and I were recently gifted the game Twisted Cryptids. We really like the mechanics of it, but we both agreed that strategizing seems very difficult, and a lot of the game depends on luck. I'm sure we're just amateurs and need to play more, but has anyone else played this game? And if so, do you have a

Is LoTR Duel Strictly Better than 7W Duel?

I’m looking at buying one of these games, I’ve played 7 Wonders, and I’ve played LoTR Duel, but I’ve never played 7 wonders duel. I’ve really enjoyed both 7 wonders and LoTR duel, some people online seem to be saying LoTR Duel is just an improved 7 wonders duel. Are there pros and cons here or just pros? I’m not the bi

What made Fantasy Flight so good at what they did?

I got into the hobby cuz of Battlestar Galactica back in 2011. I haven't really sought out boardgaming in the last ~5 years, but one of the few games I still hold onto is another FFG classic (imo), New Angeles. To me, these guys were just the pinnacle of whatever the opposite of ludonarrative dissonance is. They ma

Bomb busters at 2 players

So we just tried to play Bomb busters at 2 players and at training day 1 we realised it doesn’t make sense to even try and now we’re at training day 2 and it’s the same thing. I already know there’s two yellow wires - 4.1 and 6.1 and since I don’t have the 4.1, he must have it. So since I have all 4 1s, his wires must

Perdition's Mouth: Abyssal Rift - awesome concept, rough execution

A rare kind of dungeon crawler which is much closer to euro than typical for genre. It even has euro-style rondel, which limits actions available to characters: they have to decide in which action slot to move, how many action points to spend on advancing within rondel, and how to make best turn, since space in each sl

Boss battler board games

What boss battler board games have you enjoyed and why? Most of the boss battling games I've played have been deck building games, like Aeon's End, Marvel Champions, and Sentinels of the Multiverse, but it honestly never clicked for me that this is what genre they were a part of despite the obvious Many v.

Hoping this will work!

With not every game having one of these first player tokens, I'm hoping this generic one will do the job, especially when we go off on a tangent and need to work out who's turn it is!   submitted by   /u/Bags4Dice [link]   [comments]

Help identifying a game

Hey, I was watching a vid and saw a very small preview of a game. The art looks great and from the glimpse it is a game I would enjoy. I know it's a longshot, but I am hoping someone will be able to recognise it and let me know the name, please. This is the best screen grab I could get, I know it's poor quality

Thoughts on Canvas

I'm trying to get my wife more interested in board games and was looking for a theme that might catch her eye. She is an artist with a degree in fine art so when I stumbled on this game it seems a good fit. People who have played it what are your thoughts? So you think there is enough there to keep an art lover eng

Advice on storing small board games?

Any advice for storing small games? I have a Kallax shelf I use for both game and book storage, and it works great for the larger games, but I find the small box games tend to gradually become a mess. Even when I've carefully arranged them, it's still hard to see what I have easily. It's also an issue I gue

Ticket to Ride Legacy - Board Conversion

Hi all! So my husband and I played through “Ticket to Ride Legacy: Legends of the West” a while ago and couldn’t decide what to do with it afterwards. It is definitely not replayable as a campaign, and while it comes with rules to continue playing with the board, we found that since we only did the campaign with 2 of u

Board Games + 3D Printing

I recently started using my 3D printer to create inserts, storage solutions, and even 3D minis for some of my favourite board games. It’s a lot of fun to upgrade the game experience and use those inserts to help organise the mess inside the game box. (You know how messy they can get, right?) I'm just curious, how m

Anticipated games at UKGE 2026

I'm thinking of attending the UK Game Expo this year and was wondering what games other attendees were planning to check out whilst they're there. I looked at the list of new games on the UKGE site but didn't see any obvious "hot" games, though that might just be because I'm trying to restrain

Why they wouldn't just add few more coins / tokens here?

My only guess is saving a bit on the knives that cut these with additional maintenance costs in the long run... but seems like wasted opportunity to add some spares, we all know that these gets lost especially when playing with 7 people   submitted by   /u/HiImLuka [link]   [comments]

Played arcs for the first time

This is the first time i ever played arcs with my friends, we most likely played it completely wrong but we were doing our best to play as the game was intended to play, we just sat in a pub, ate pizza and played a board game and it was a BLAST, game is like 9/10 will definitely play again, for those curious there were

The BGG database is enormous and getting bigger by the day. Chances are good that some of your favorite games never get mentioned here on /r/boardgames, even though they deserve to be.
