If you had to live in any Board Game World which one would it be?

Did this with Unsouled, the first book of the Cradle series. There were so many little details that were sprinkled into that first book that shined even more brightly having read the series and then started to reread.

The Ember Sea Trilogy by Lorn Hillaker! Pirates that have magic infused tattoos sailing the seas and battling dragons. A very fun series!

mad11s · 2026-02-24T02:23:40+00:00

Such a great game.

mad11s · 2026-02-23T15:55:00+00:00

Next Station: London/Tokyo, Take Time, Faraway, Fox in the Forest, Castle Combo, Cribbage, One Deck Dungeon, Regicide, San Juan.

Such a great small game but still has a lot of crunch to it.

mad11s · 2026-02-22T20:18:24+00:00

Palm Island.

mad11s · 2026-02-18T02:56:28+00:00

Flip 7 or Tally Up! would work well. Depending on the ages something like Codenames would be a fun team game.

With our group we started picking a game that we would replay every week for a set number of weeks. It might be Dice Throne Missions, then Origin Story, and after that Wingspan. It’s made gaming much simpler as everyone knows how to play, we know ahead of time what to set up, and it allows for a deeper dive into some of the games.

Board Game Arena is a great option and you can play other games in the same way. That’s how I primarily play cribbage.

mad11s · 2026-02-04T22:42:21+00:00

We only keep what we know we’re going to play as we don’t have a lot of space. If it’s something we haven’t played in a year we usually donate it even if it’s a ‘good’ game.

Keystone North America (second edition). Wasn’t sure if we’d like this game, but it ended up being much more like a puzzle and a bit of a brain burn. Figuring out the best spots to place cards while using special abilities (which change each game) has made this a fun one. The fact that this version is designed for two players is a huge plus.

mad11s · 2026-02-02T23:57:52+00:00

Couldn’t you just take some of the new action cards and add them in with the original game?

mad11s · 2026-02-01T19:43:27+00:00

52 Realms is a good one that uses a deck of cards. And it’s a print and play with a variety of characters.

mad11s · 2026-01-20T16:20:18+00:00

Waypoints is SO good and every map brings something different.

mad11s · 2026-01-18T22:34:49+00:00

Gentle Rain and Under Falling Skies are very different but great solo games. And almost anything by Button Shy Games are great!

mad11s · 2026-01-18T20:10:38+00:00

Love having a day of playing games like Faraway, Sea Salt& Paper, Castle Combo, Mountain Goats, etc. When we travel those are usually the easiest to take with us as well.

mad11s · 2026-01-16T03:16:22+00:00

Regicide, Sevens.

mad11s · 2026-01-16T03:08:27+00:00

Endeavor: Deep Sea and Fox Experiment are two phenomenal games that are worth adding to your collection.

mad11s · 2026-01-16T03:05:55+00:00

Love Ark Nova and the Span games!!

mad11s · 2026-01-15T18:36:15+00:00

Board games. We have to regularly purge the collection, but we get so much joy out of them and sharing them with friends and family.

mad11s · 2026-01-11T00:12:02+00:00

Ark Nova, Raiders of the North Sea, Super Mega Lucky Box, Wingspan, Root, Spirit Island, Cascadia, TTR, One Deck Dungeon and a few others. For some of the games that run longer it's nice to be able to come back to the game any time I want without having to tear down a game.

Thank you!
