Dungeons, Dice and Towers!

What's going on everyone!? Tonight for the "Game a Day" challenge my dear ol' pops and I played another session of Dungeon Dice in preparation for my review of the game. Not only that, we just can't get enough of it! On top of that I also used the time to check out a new piece I got in for review. I dice tray/holder/tower! That review will be coming up as well!

As usual, it was a great time and lots of fun battling monsters in the dungeon. I am always eager to play another game in general but with my dear ol' pops as well.


Here are a few pics from tonight's session which show the game AND the tray/holder/tower:

Dungeon, Dice and Family!

What's going on everyone!? Today for the "Game a Day" challenge my lovely wife, dear ol' pops and I played some Dungeon Dice, a game I recently got in for review.

It was a great session and dear ol' pops ended up winning the game! I didn't do so hot myself but my lovely wife was close on his heals for the win. This is definitely one that I can see getting a LOT of play time from me.

ALMOST THERE!

What's going on everyone!? Today for the "Game a Day" challenge my lovely wife and I played a couple of games of Star Realms Mobile. I was doing really good there for a while but she quickly put me back in line. Just as I needed ONE MORE win to hit level 6 for the first time but she ended up getting two wins in a row and knocked me back down by two.


As always it was still a great time and I love playing against her. She's a great player and really challenges me at the game.

Takin' out the Trash!

What's going on everyone!? Today for the "Game a Day" challenge my lovely wife, dear ol' pops and I played Garbage Day!

It was a great time as always and believe it or not I actually won! But not before I had a few scares and thought it was over for me.

"I am your father"

What's going on everyone!? Tonight for the "Game a Day" challenge dear ol' pops and I played a game of Star Realms Mobile.

It was a pretty good game and very close at times but when it came towards the last couple hands I had I got good draws which was unfortunate for him because it sealed the win for myself.

All in all he's doing good with the game for  beginner though. He even surprised me and kicked my butt at one game earlier in the day when we had a few minutes to spare!

Gaming Goodness!

What's going on everyone!? Today was a different kind of day for the "Game a Day" challenge. I was invited to a friends Boardgame Birthday Bash and so my dear ol' pops, beautiful daughter and I went to it! I mean, how could I say "No" to going to tell a friend Happy Birthday and NOT want to play boardgames!?!?

At the event I got to partake in a fun party style game called 2 Rooms and a Bomb. It was definitely a fun game and I'm very glad I had the chance to play it!

After that, my dear ol' pops, beautiful daughter, another person and I also got to play Train Maker! It was a lot of fun being able to introduce someone else to one of the dice games we love and they even took note so they could find a copy for themselves! :D

Lastly the person who joined in on Train Maker brought in Ticket To Ride: My first Journey and we tried that one out with them so they could demo it and get an overall review of it. Turns out that was a VERY fun and simplistic version of TTR which is not only great for children but also for adults and the elderly. It's definitely one I want to look into getting for my collection as well.

Fast forward to getting home later in the evening and we played a game of Flip City with my dear ol' pops, lovely wife and I. It was another GREAT experience and a game I can't wait to play again. We thought pops had the win but turns out on my turn RIGHT after him I was able to lock in a win! All in all it was a wonderful day spent with great friends old and new as well as my wonderful family to finish up the day.

Here are a few pics from the event as well as tonight's game at home:

Train to winnersville!

What's going on everyone!? Today for the "Game a Day" challenge my beautiful daughter and I played a quick game of Train Maker. And when I say "quick" I mean QUICK!

She completely STOMPED me in this session and completed her objective in TWO TURNS! I couldn't be more proud to be honest.

It was a great time and plenty of fun was had as we joked and rolled dice. Because it is getting late I opted for just the one game of it but I would have preferred to play another game or two of it with her.

Building & Sailing & Raiding, Oh My!

What's going on everyone!? Today was a great session for the "Game a Day" challenge! My lovely wife and I got to pop this awesome game you may have heard of from NSKN Games called In the name of Odin out of it's shrink wrap tomb!

It was a VERY pleasant experience and the game did NOT disappoint in the least. At the end of the game I ended up winning but not by much. If we had one more round I believe my lovely opponent would have stolen the win!

Be sure to keep an eye out for the review that I'll be posting up as a "First Impression" sometime tomorrow.

Dragons!!!!!!!

What's going on everyone!? Tonight for the "Game a Day" challenge I played a solo game of Dragon Slayer Dice.

It was rough going but I made it to 42 points before the green dragon decided to turn me into the Kentucky FRIED Gamer!

If you're wondering about how I play a solo version of this, I use three of the provided tokens as "Lives". Each time I lose all three dice I discard a life and continue going. When I discard the last token the game is over and I jot down my score.

It's a pretty fun way to challenge yourself at this game and I highly recommend you give it a shot sometime if you happen to have it.
