Board Games Archives

We're big fans of the crew at Skybound Games, and when we had a brief moment between appointments, we dropped by their booth at PAX East to say hello and check out what they had to offer. Along with playing a brand new game involving movie scripts, we got to snag two new expansion packs for Red Flags.

Monopoly, in general, gets a bad rap for being a game that causes a lot of fights. And it should to a degree, because the goal of the game is to be a capitalist and put everyone else in the poor house.

Another game we got some awesome amount of time with while visiting North Star Games at PAX East was Happy Salmon, which is essentially one of the

While we were at PAX East, not all of it was video games, we got in some decent board gaming time as well. One of the appointments we managed to book in the tabletop area landed us some time with a game called Beasts Of Balance.

While I may not have been around to experience Centipede in its heyday, I can't think of a gamer born before 1990 who didn't experience this game in an arcade at some point. And now you can experience it on your tabletop too.

We're slowly approaching PAX East in Boston next week, and as we prepare to head into the convention with hopeful eyes, it does have us looking back at some of the items we received during PAX West last September. One of those items was Now Everyone Get The F%$# Out! from Starcap Games.

I don't think there's a single person on the planet who has played Monopoly and not cheated at some point in time. And why not? The game is basically a lightning rod for ruthless economic behavior int he housing industry, and the people you're bilking are your friends and family.
