I'm just some dude. A cardboard cowboy. I also write Space-Biff!, the world's first and only board game review site.
haha, please don't hold 13-year-old crap against me. XD

Whoa, thank you so much!

Very kind of you! I'm always about three months away from shutting down the site, so every little bit helps.

I loved it.
November 27, 2025 at 4:57 AM
Sure, I get it
November 27, 2025 at 2:10 AM
Whoa! Good news! Congratulations!

Oh, that's such a lovely answer. Thank you for sharing.

Not yet! This was our inaugural play, so she (we, really) was just excited to try the new protocols.

Thanks for reading, Jonathan.

Oh no. What little turds.

One of the times I was at Dachau, a school class was coming through. One of the girls was weeping so hard I thought she might get sick. Some of the boys kept pointing and laughing. What strange animals we are.

No, it was probably just a weakness in my writing. It didn't occur to me that anyone would design such a game without coming from a place of personal hurt, as this individual did. And my early readers, of whom there were a half-dozen, including my rabbi friend, didn't note the omission either.

Sorry, didn't see this yesterday. As I understand it, the game was designed by someone as a therapeutic means for understanding the horrors experienced by their ancestors.

It was super cool. My 11yo was so excited that she asked if we could keep playing. I wish! We'll be able to get in a few more sessions over the long weekend.

Thanks for the kind words, Iain. And yeah. This was a tough one. For many, many reasons.

Nice! My kiddo loved Compile Main 2, and I have Shasn Azadi on the table as well. Need to break it open.

I feel similarly, and clearly so do many others, although today I've received quite a few notes of disagreement. There was a moment in this game that hit me so hard my teeth vibrated. No exaggeration.
November 25, 2025 at 6:46 AM
Yeah. I wish I had been given more warning.
