I have written a lot of reviews by this point. And there are just some things you appreciate as a reviewer. One of those things I happen to appreciate is a rulebook that just gets to the point. Example: Dice Eclipse rules start out with, “Instructions: The goal is to…
YESSSSS Let’s build a dinopark! I have been waiting for this for years! Yes, I know that Dinosaur Island exists. It’s a good game. In fact, I think it’s a great game. But I have been waiting for a quick game of building a dinopark that I can also share…
