Three Cs at the top of my March plays. Crisps! still at the top but I have a feeling it won't keep that place in April. #boardgames #bgstats

I recently picked up Conservas by @scottalmes.bsky.social and @saltandpeppergames.bsky.social while searching for a new solo game. I've only played a few games so far but it's so addicting! It has everything I want in a solo experience: Short, simple & easy setup. #boardgamed #soloboardgames

Cards rule everything around me February plays. Lots of card games. Crisps! by @shreesh.bsky.social (and @dnlnwmn.bsky.social) reigns supreme and keeps its 1st place spot from January. #boardgames #bgstats

I can recommend. Easily game of the year for me and it's only February. Small box you can take anywhere. Perfect play time for game weight and player count. Has become the 'night cap' for me and my daughter (one game of Crisps! before she goes to sleep... if it's not too late)

January plays. I finally got Crisps (and Dickory along with a few other games I purchased) from @dnlnwmn.bsky.social and I immediately know Crisps is going to be a top list game for 2026. Can't get enough. #bgstats #boardgames

I may have found my favorite trick-taking game with a trump suit.

I did it! These are my non-digital plays of the year and I managed to play a physical board game every single day of 2025! I basically did a full year #spielmas #boardgames #bgstats

Last day of the year and the sixth and last day of #spielmas Three different games played. Two making a reappearance but one new. So concludes my first Spielmas. It's been fun and a very good way to end this spectacular year. #boardgames

December plays. After the November injury I finally got back to a large amount of daily plays second half of December but still managed a daily play in December. #boardgames #bgstats

Fifth day of #spielmas and I'm back at 3 different games but only one making a reoccurrence. Now there's only one day left of Spielmas and one day left of the year and then a big reveal as to why spielmas was pretty special to me this year. #boardgames

Fourth day of #spielmas and what a day. Five different games played. We're gonna need a bigger hexagon. Size of game components does not reflect size of game but there are a few very obscure games this time around. #boardgames

Third day of #spielmas and yet again three different games. One game makes a comeback from the first day of spielmas but the other two are new. #boardgames

The second day of #spielmas saw three different games played but no repeat games from the first day (also two of these were solo). #boardgames

I'm in the homestretch of a special board game year. What better way to celebrate it than by participating in #spielmas On this first day of spielmas I played three different games.

I just got my hands on my first @marcelineleiman.bsky.social design - the solo variant of The Hobbit: There and Back Again I am very interested to know the idea behind the design and why it was designed in this way because it is very different from what I expected #boardgames

Just gave myself a holiday gift, a subscription to @senetmagazine.bsky.social I've been meaning to get for a long time (since I found out about Senet magazine about a year ago). Also backordered all the previous issues so you'll find me in my reading chair all of next year. #boardgames

Exciting! I just registered for Spiel@Sea next year. Two weeks of board gaming and making friends while visiting Spain, Azores and Bermuda 🛳 tabletop.events/conventions/... #boardgames

A broken collarbone followed by surgery did not stop me from playing a game every day of November. A Gentle Rain was the perfect game to get me through my injuries and recovery. #boardgames #bgstats

Watching Matthew describe his board game injury while waiting for surgery, I realized my broken collarbone is a board game injury and also a bruised board game ego because I broke it when I slipped on ice trying not to be late to play... Bingo cc/ @gamenightpicks.com youtube.com/watch?v=C1Ll...

My October was longer than yours. According to #bgstats I played a game 32 days in October. Got to play a variety of games at Spiel and played during the DST changes (where I suspect the 32nd day comes from). #boardgames

I'm probably late to the game but I just found out about @aftergame.app I have needed a website or an app to organize boardgame nights and events and it seems to be everything I hoped for and more. Now to get more people to sign up 🤔 aftergame.app

I have been listening to "1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die". Sometimes while soloing a boardgame. What I can tell you is that even if I don't like Arkham Horror the boardgame, I like it even less with The Visitors by ABBA as a soundtrack. #boardgames #soloboardgames

I've now gone through the solo mode for Forest Shuffle (from Exploration) three times; With the base game, with Alpine expansion, and with Alpine + Woodland Edge. I've discovered new strategies and powerful forest friends. Loved it! Well done @lookoutgames.bsky.social #boardgames #soloboardgames

My September plays. Forest Shuffle still at the top thanks to the Exploration solo mode. I'm now going into the last quarter of the year and have played a (physical copy) boardgame every day of 2025 so far. #boardgames #bgstats

Solo played Until Proven Guilty from DV Games. I don't recommend the game for its price even if the production is great. Weirdly the components are of too high quality for a one off play. I think they could have done something like Final Girl (core box + cases). #boardgames #soloboardgames

Everything is relative. I guess most people think they'd have played a lot if they managed 70 plays in a year. To me, playing only 70 times in a month is on the lower side (I was traveling which explains it) #boardgames #bgstats

Forest Shuffle from @lookoutgames.bsky.social continued its reign in July thanks to the solo mode in Exploration. Kingsbridge, the competitive solitaire from Wolfgang Kramer and @kosmosgamesuk.bsky.social that I randomly bought at a sale, got closest to toppling it. #boardgames #bgstats

I just finished watching the #marvel Ironheart series. So, of course I had to play a game of Marvel Champions: Ironheart vs The Hood #boardgames #soloboardgames #marvelchampions

Got a little hooked on Forest Shuffle with the new Exploration expansion from @lookoutgames.bsky.social But on average a different game played every day of the month. That completes a half a year of daily physical plays. It'll be fun to try and finish a whole year. #boardgames #bgstats

I have played many games of Forest Shuffle from @lookoutgames.bsky.social and even more after getting the Exploration expansion. On the fifth try at the Insects challenge, never having gotten 10 insects, I finally noticed that butterflies are insects too! Game changer! #boardgames #soloboardgames

I really like the solo variant in Forest Shuffle: Exploration from @lookoutgames.bsky.social It's part mentoring, part campaign. Same tension. Screwed up my whole game on my last turn. Immediately want to play again. #boardgames #soloboardgames

I don't care if the buildings are not sturdy in Rolling Heights from @alderaceg.bsky.social This game just looks so good and the meeple throwing mechanic is so much fun. Solo opponent is simple to operate but I would have wanted cards instead of dice + a round tracker. #boardgames #soloboardgames

A new pope was elected in May. Around that time I played Avignon: A Clash of Popes with different people. I also did two #threespan plays in May 🐠🐦🐉 A slump in plays in the middle of May but started to pick up again toward the end. #boardgames #bgstats

I put on a french family movie for a sudden movie night, knowing nothing about it: Family Pack (Loups-Garous) Turns out it was Werewolves of Miller's Hollow the movie. It's an ok family flick, but it is the best movie based on real #boardgames I think I've seen 😉

I just barely saved Earth in my first game of Under Falling Skies from @czechgamesedition.bsky.social I quite like the simplicity of the mechanics. Quick upkeep between my turns. I'll have to play a few more times to see how repetitive it gets (campaign might save it). #boardgames #soloboardgames

I just painted my first models. Well... the base of the models. To faster distinguish between the rouleur and the sprinteur in a game of Flamme Rouge, I painted the base of each model to match the color of the back of that model's cards. #boardgames

Every year there is a friendly national health awareness competition called: Cycle to work. It's an effort to encourage people to use different modes of transportation to get to work than a private car. What better way to kick off this year's Cycle to work than a game of Flamme Rouge? #boardgames

Decided to do #threespan That is: Play all three *span games in one day: Finspan + Wingspan + Wyrmspan (from @stonemaiergames.com) Did all of them solo against the automa. It was fun but I'd like to repeat 'threespan' against real players next time. #boardgames #soloboardgames

My April plays and yes that is Monopoly. My daughter saved up money and bought Monopoly. To encourage her to save money for things (games) she wants instead of spending it on candy or something, I played it with her a few times. The game is actually alright. Just too long. #bgstats #boardgames

The joy of getting a delivery from @buttonshy.bsky.social 😍 A few of these I ordered to be a part of my daughter's birthday present. The rest is my reward for being a great dad. #boardgames #soloboardgames

The toaster and the iron didn't stand a chance against the almighty blender! Played a solo game (easy mode) of Power Vacuum by @kalebwf.bsky.social and @malrempen.bsky.social It started out tough but I was able to turn it around as soon as I had claimed a few cards. #boardgames #soloboardgames

Please share!! #boardgames #soloboardgaming

My family blindfolded me and drove to a local #boardgame store to check how well I knew the store by letting me choose any game as a birthday present while still blindfolded. It was way harder to think of a game on the spot than finding it but I decided to introduce my daughters to engine builders.

It was forbidden by Icelandic law to play games on church holidays. 'Bingo and similar games' was specifically mentioned. Icelanders used to play bingo in front of the parliament on Good friday to protest until law changed. I played Ecos: First Continent, this Good friday as a tribute #boardgames

School's off the week before Easter. So what do I do? I take the week off, but leave the kids to be on their own while I go play Honey Buzz with school teachers on vacation. #boardgames

Games played at a great Icelandic boardgame convention called Spilavin. Not a lot of sleep, but a lot of gaming and pure joy! #boardgames #spilavin

Played World Order, the new game from the people behind Hegemony. I was disappointed. It took 7 hours and most of that was just waiting. I don't know why there was so much downtime because your options were limited, even too limited since you often did not have cards to respond/defend. #boardgames

Nobody: So how long is the boardgame convention you're packing for? Me: Just the weekend and yes I need to pack more games #boardgames

March was fun. Playing games every day and on average a different game every day. I introduced my daughter to The Downfall of Pompeii and she absolutely loved it. #bgstats #boardgames

Played my 100th game of Marvel Champions tonight. This is something I did not expect when I got the game less than a year ago. Decided to play a re-match of my very first game: Spider-Man (Peter Parker) versus Rhino #boardgames #soloboardgames #marvelchampions
