If you know me or Travis, you know that we’re both big fans of Disney/Pixar. I grew up with the classics, and still enjoy pretty much everything that has premiered in my adulthood. I always hate being asked, “What’s your favorite Disney movie?” because that is SO hard to answer…

One thing that I love about social media is how it allows people to share their games and experiences with the world. And that’s how Tortilla Slap came onto my radar. Persuing TikTok one day, I saw this game as a ‘challenge,’ and immediately knew that I had to try…
I will say what I’m sure every one of you are saying right now: There’s a surplus of sloths? Where? How do I get one then?? And if there IS a surplus, why does it cost $6,000 or more to buy one online? If you had a pet sloth, what…
When it comes to push-your-luck games, I’m usually not a fan. The balance between risk and reward is something that can stress me out, especially in fast-paced games. But when I came across Chicken!, a little push-your-luck game from Scott Almes (of Tiny Epic fame), I decided I’d give it…
We at Purple Phoenix Games are fairly new on the TikTok scene (check us out!), but it’s been a great place to connect with other gamers, content creators, and publishers! And that’s how I came across I’m Right You’re Wrong. So without further ado, read on to learn about this…
With the immense size of the board game industry lately, so many new games are brought to market every single day around the world. But due to logistics, not all games are available in every country. Which is a bummer. Fortunately for us, though, publishers can acquire the rights to…
When it comes to party games, I find that they can be pretty hit or miss. Some of them are really unique and entertaining, while others are basic re-skins of other popular party games (I’m looking at you, every Apples to Apples-spinoff…). So when Words of a Feather showed up…
And finally, the last game from my AEG GenCon haul is a little game called Number Drop. It combines roll-and-writes with a Tetris-type of gameplay that makes for a nice and fast game with a sprinkle of strategy. I’ll be totally upfront that Number Drop surprised me in a good…
My wife and I LOVE to travel. We used to travel so much before we started having children. We are having them grow up a little before we start jetsetting and cruising with them. I just know they are going to love traveling as much as we have. I mean,…
I don’t know about you, but the title of this game instantly grabbed my attention. What does it even mean?! I had never heard of it until I was introduced to this game. It is a psychological effect where people associate sounds with visual shapes, regardless of language or culture.…
I love a gimmick. Something out of the ordinary is right up my alley. Something else right up my alley is the opportunity to preview games in an attempt to draw attention to the game and publisher. Oh, I also like sea creatures. Bundle that all together and we have…
This past August (2023) was my first time ever going to GenCon. And boy, was it something special! I bought so many games, got to meet and interact with some great content creators, and got the chance to speak with several publishers as well! AEG had a neat Content Creator…
In today’s day and age, I feel like wallpaper has become pretty rare to see in new homes. But when I was a kid, it was THE thing to have. It seemed like every room had a different wallpaper, and thus, gave off a different vibe. But as times have…
