Cthulhu CRPG seeks 55k Euros.

Tokyo Highway: Rainbow City, designed by Naotaka Shimamoto and Yoshiaki Tomioka and published by Itten, is a dexterity game that builds on the minimalist charm of the original Tokyo Highway while adding a splash of colour, a bit more…

Leviathan Wilds is a game that doesn’t ask you to fight bosses. Instead, it asks you to climb, to heal and to cling on for dear life. It’s an inversion of the recently popular boss battle genre, and it’s all the more compelling for it.…

Cyclades: Legendary Edition is more than just a reprint — it’s the near flawless remaster of an already exceptional design. Designed by Bruno Cathala and Ludovic Maublanc, this version consolidates the original Cyclades and the best of its…

Late Pledges for Era of Tribes are still open for a few more days here. If you’ve ever wanted to guide a civilization from its tribal roots to a sprawling empire, Era of Tribes might just be the game you’ve been waiting for. Designed by…

Rise & Fall, the latest design from Christophe Boelinger and published by Ludically, opens with the players building the board piece by piece — an act of divine collaboration that feels more like sculpting a landscape than setting up a…

Explore the world and race to complete your jet-setting objectives in Atlas: Explore the World. There’s a quiet, enduring appeal to games that invite us to explore — not through conquest or competition, but through curiosity and connection.…

When we first reviewed Tokaido back in 2018, it was already 6 years old and board gaming was entering a Golden Age with innovative new games being released weekly and entirely new mechanics emerging all the time. Somehow, even then, Tokaido…

It's normally Tokyo that gets the gritty cyberpunk overhaul in Sci-Fi, that's not the case in Altered Alma, where it's Neo-Barcelona that takes the spotlight Altered Alma is the next title from 2Awesome Studio, the team behind Dimension…

Here at BigBossBattle, we’re big fans of Zombicide: 2nd Edition. We raved about it in our review, we ranked it highly in our list of the 15 Best Dungeon Crawlers and we even enjoyed the stupid digital spin-off. Heck, we love CMON’s zombie…

Well, here we are — no new or particularly exciting racing games in the board game world for ages, yet now we have HEAT: Pedal to the Metal, Thunder Road: Vendetta and finally Joyride all landing in rapid succession. For me, HEAT is still…

War has never been a particularly lightweight topic, but it remains an important one. Human beings are fascinated by conflict and as a result, the global wars of the 20th Century remain some of the most popular themes for both board and…

Doomlings is a quick-play set collection game that plays out through several ages, with each player evolving their own little beasty to score big come the final sunset. We actually wrote about Doomlings about three years ago, when Jupiter…

Any experienced gamer will know the name Reiner Knizia — but the good doctor tends to split opinion when it comes to whether his games are any good, or not. Here at B3, we enjoyed Yellow & Yangtze and loved The Quest for El Dorado, but…

Despite three seasons of gigantic Kickstarters, Marvel United might be one of the best games that you’ve probably never heard of. Originally designed by Eric M. Lang and Andrea Chiarvesio and published by CMON, this solo, cooperative or…

Anyone who has read my reviews of Zombicide: Second Edition or my recent 14 Best Dungeon Crawlers article will already know that I am a big fan of the Zombicide system. Zombicide is a series of cooperative, zombie-bashing miniatures games…

Sometimes, we play longer games at our tabletop group! Revenge of the Dictators is a medium length (that's longer for us, for certain), strategy game where you are looking to convince the president of the United States to let you take over…

The world itself feels interesting, and something that could have been lifted from The Day of the Tentacle with the slightly off-shaped buildings, brightly coloured characters, and repeated fourth wall breaks. All those characters were a…

With board gaming becoming quite a mainstream hobby, the days of purchasing Catan or Carcassonne for your teenage children or gaming-adjacent friends are long gone. Those people are no longer interested in gateway games and lightweight…

I’ve heard a lot about Deep Rock Galactic, and we’ve certainly covered it here at B3 — but I’d never played it myself. Dwarves, beer, mining etc — I felt I’d seen and done it all before. But on the tabletop things hit differently. Creating…
