I’m a big fan of tiki culture. The modern tiki culture and aesthetic is, of course, evolved from the cultures and art of the South Pacific. At the southeasternmost point of the Polynesian Triangle of said South Pacific lays one of the most remote inhabited islands on the planet. An island immediately recognizable by the nearly 1000 moai statues on the island. Easter Island. Although not as ostentatious as most tiki art, the moai are nevertheless ubiquitous. I’m also a huge fan of abstract...| therathole.ca

Western Legends is one of my favourite open-world board games, throwing players into a Wild West sandbox where they’re free to explore and earn fame - or infamy - however they like.

My initial reaction to the announcement of a Betrayal at House on the Hill card game was that of confusion - the narrative-focused series doesn’t seem like an obvious fit for a card game - but minor interest: this could be good! However, I’m disappointed to say that Betrayal: Deck of Lost Souls is not good. Rather than being a fun little diversion from the classic horror-adventure board game, Deck of Lost Souls feels like a poorly executed cash-in on the Betrayal name. At its core, a Betr...| Dicebreaker Latest Articles Feed

The success of 2020’s indie video game Hades owes a lot to the horniness of its fanbase. Hades’ intense and fast gameplay, which challenges players to complete several levels of monster-packed rooms and dangerous bosses in a single life, certainly played a part in the game’s popularity and critical acclaim. Nevertheless, the reason the title has endured within the cultural landscape for so long is because we can’t get enough of its tastefully sexy characters.

In my experience one of the things that inventors of board games frequently forget is the inclusion of alternative methods of play. Don't just focus on the preferred method of play and preferred rules, but think about ways that the game can be modified and changed. Let me use an example from the extremely popular game Monopoly. One of the things that keep many people from playing Monopoly is the length of the game.
