Howdy, partner. They call me Sheriff Nick around these parts. If you’re looking for a hoe-down and a hanging, you’re in the right place.
I started this blog to punish the foolish folk bringing bad board games to market. With the board game industry as overpopulated as it is, it’s safe to say this town ain’t big enough for all these games.
Amongst my contemporaries, I’m notorious for my intolerance of god-awful game mechanics, half-baked ideas and dastardly design choices. Being quite a connoisseur, the good people of my burg see me as more than qualified to carefully convict crooked games.
I’m a young buck from the big city, Philadelphia. Up in the ‘urbs, there isn’t a past time quite like shacking up with your closest cronies and playing a board game. Fiery fights fueling raucous rivalries, close-quarters cooperation that mends and bends familiar friendships and puzzling predicaments steeped in strategy are some of the just highest expectations of what one might find on the tabletop.
In my blog, I’ll be finally sentencing to death those seemingly-immortal stone cold classics that slithered their way into your childhood home and tainted your perception of the board gaming hobby. Along the way, I’ll take shots at some of the nasty new-comers as well.
With all this being said, it is of my utmost duty and honor to unmask slick snake-oil outlaws and reveal their most intimate parts. All this and more to elevate the best games in the catalog to the best status one can obtain: “Not so bad.”
