So Very Wrong About Games Wonderland's WarIn our effort to answer all of your Omnibus Questions, sadly we cannot enlist the assistance of notable Canadian Keanu Reeves. In an interview with Stephen Colbert--as a joke after Keanu said something profound--he was asked, "What do you think happens when we die, Keanu Reeves?" After a pause, and the audience's laughter, Keanu said, "I know that that the ones who love us will miss us."

So Very Wrong About Games #352: Ascending Empires: Zenith EditionI was donating blood while wearing my Transformers Converse shoes, and two different phlebotomists commented positively about them. "We have won the cultural argument," I said, deliberately burying the lede that demographic destiny is probably the chief cause. I suspect that the same forces explain increased societal acceptance of toys, and board games are not immune.

So Very Wrong About Games #350: Beyond the HorizonDespite the welcome relative absence of anthropomorphic animals this week--aside from some sundry ducks in Lorcana--we see a lot of animals and various critters this week. We eschew sacrifices to a dodgy snake in Imperium, we fling sheep with abandon, we throw down with some wrestling bugs, and that's on top of comparatively mundane animal husbandry in Keyflower.

So Very Wrong About Games #296: Dexterity Games RevisitedIt has been many a year since our early days, our salad days when we were younger and dumb and didn't know what we were doing. Much has changed, in that we are now older and dumb and don't know what we're doing. But the inexorable march of time has at least offered many new offerings in the broad tent of dexterity games, and so it is past time that we focus on one of our preferred genus of toy.01:26 AYURIS: Golem (Flaminia Brasini, Virginio Gigli, & Simone Luciani, Cranio Creations, 2021)

So Very Wrong About Games #284: Zoo VadisOn October 27th, 1962, a man named Vasili Arkhipov saved the world. Literally. Had he not stood up to his commanding officer and refused to launch a nuclear warhead during the Cuban Missile Crisis, the resulting retaliations would have obliterated all human life. Probably the marmosets and gibbons, too. We here at SVWAG think the man deserves a holiday in his honour, especially given that we all owe our lives to him.

So Very Wrong About Games #263: Darwin's JourneyIt is a truth universally acknowledged in eurogames that every famous historical man (it's almost always a man, of course) had a retinue of about 2-5 hangers-on whose sole job was to impress him. They did this mostly by doing stuff he did; maybe after he did them, maybe running states he conquered, maybe even by doing the stuff he was credited with. Their names are lost to antiquity. All we know is that they liked solid colours, and that the famous dude was most impressed with one of them. Games Played Last Week:

So Very Wrong About Games #241: Planet UnknownSometimes a game's title leads to it being underplayed. Such is not the case for Carolus Magnus, whose chief downside might be the surplus of excellent aliases (Chuckie Mags, Charlie Big-Big, Carlos Grande, Caroolie Magoonie, et al). Planet Unknown, on the other hand, hardly sticks in one's memory.

It has a truly impressive nodosaur specimen.

So Very Wrong About Games

So Very Wrong About Games #196: Going Off-ScriptSome things, of course, from Josie and the Pussycats have aged poorly. The idea of "record stores" and CDs (that could, in turn sell out like they were PS5s or something) is downright quaint--especially given the format of this show. I'm pretty confident that the cultural moment of Moviefone Guy has well and truly passed, despite the continued use of both movies and phones. Do people still know who Carson Daly is? I confess I never really did. Mostly I know him from that totally jerkin' movie, Josie and the Pussycats.01:39 AYURIS: Watergate (Matthias Cramer, Capstone Games, 2019)

We attempt to deduce why I am so successful at finding Planet X, wonder how to mind slip through the work week, realize that our prowess at a board game about cooking does not translate into the kitchen, and wonder why we should make wine when you can give tours of a barren wasteland and still achieve a commendable score. In addition, a legend is created while using sand timers to create A Feast for Odin. Off Brand is a long...

One of the world's highest-grossing actors, he is best known for playing Dominic Toretto in the Fast & Furious franchise.Diesel began his career in 1990 but struggled to gain roles until he wrote, directed, produced, and starred in the short film Multi-Facial (1995). This attracted the attention of Steven Spielberg, who was developing Saving Private Ryan (1998), and re-wrote elements of the film to allow Diesel to appear in a supporting role.

Everyday Meeple

Everyday Meeple Ep 9 - The Road to CatanFor episode 9 I get a bit excited and try and explain to Steve what I find fascinating about the world before Catan. I had something in my head about the game Acquire having been mentioned as the seed of modern Eurogames. Which really interested me. I started looking into and did not find too much at first then came across the book "Eurogames: The Design, Culture and Play of Modern European Board Games" by Stewart Woods and it is crammed full of history. Which I do a shaky job trying to relay to Steve. It's a great book though if...

So Very Wrong About Games

So Very Wrong About Games #49: Crusaders and Thematic DisconnectsPlayers aren't the only people who make choices, of course. Designers and publishers make decisions about the setting and the theme of their games. Insofar as games can communicate a message--whether purely aesthetic or more ideological--it is beneficial to have a clear vision. Things can get exceptionally problematic when you start playing fast and loose with things of great cultural and historical import. Incidentally, I will note that while our topic and our feature game often have no connection between them, sometimes they do. I don't know why I'm mentioning that this week.Games Played Last Week: ...

We’re Not Wizards Tabletop Podcast Episode 213: Welcome to Dino World | James O’Connor | Nick Shaw | David Turczi | Alley Cat GamesRichard is joined by the team behind Dino World, James O'Connor, Nick Shaw and David Turczi to chat all about collaborating on their very successful Kickstarter campaign. We have a chat mostly about the games inception, working across different time zones, trains, document control and what the future holds for the game going forward and somehow manage to keep things on track without Caezar overseeing everything. It was a fun time, a fun chat and if you haven't checked out Welcome to Dino World then you really should give it a look. LINKS OF NOTES https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/alle...

RESERVOIR JOCS

RESERVOIR JOCS DJ130: Steal This Game (2016) Dávid TurcziEn els darrers temps hi ha certa desconfiança en les campanyes de Kickstarter i Verkami relacionades amb la creació de jocs de taula... més d'una vegada hem cregut estar posant diners per ajudar a publicar un "pepino" i ens ha arribat a casa una "castanya". Els problemes principals són la manca de qualitat per falta de: testeig, desenvolupament, producció, edició o tot plegat al mateix temps.
