We made it back in one piece, and all told I think we did pretty well! We got through a heck of a lot of what we wanted to play, and we’re here to tell you all about it – including Dark Pact, Totally Human, and Banana Governance, and more!
By the time you’re listening to this, we’re probably already in Vegas for Dice Tower West! We’re going to hang about all day playing games – which naturally leads to the question of what we’re going to play? These are the games we came up with! Before we bite off more than we can chew, we talk about Ghost Lift, Cities, and I, Napoleon.
I think it’s fair to say that we crushed this last year (although some of us better than others), so it’s only correct and right that we should return to do it again. What are the best games of 2026 going to be? Well, only we know, but we’re willing to part with that information. Get your fat stacks ready. Before we set ourselves up for failure, we talk about Alibis, Mosaic: A Story of Civilization, and Cyclades: Legendary Edition.
All of this has happened before and will happen again. Everything comes back around, including games you could swear you’ve played before. Whether they’re remakes, reimplimentations, or rejuvenations, we’re tackling the world of board game revivals. Before what’s old is new, we talk about Agent Avenue, 7 Empires, and Stellar Ventures.
Well, we started this thing, so I guess we ought to finish it, as ill-advised as that might be. This is where all the chickens come home to roost, where we learn how badly we’ve set ourselves up to fail – but you never know, it might just all work out! It’s the top ten greatest board games … of all-time!
Happy new year! We’re back to continue the very peaceful, collaborative, kind endeavour that is coming together to harmoniously assemble our top 50 games. It’s been nothing but chill, friendly vibes, and we expect that to continue into 2026. It’s the next twenty games on our definitive top 50 board games… of all-time!
Okay, things are a bit different this year. In honour of our 350th episode (a very important milestone), we’re going to combine forces, like … Voltron. I’m the head, and my left and right feet are here with me to collaboratively (yes, you heard right) compile Board Game Barrage’s definitive (definitely definitive) top 50 board games… of all-time!
Remember way back at the beginning of the year when we took some bets on what we thought the games of the year were gonna be? Well, all those good and bad decisions are back to help or haunt us, as we tally up where things stand with the end of the year results. Before we find a winner, we talk about Wriggle Roulette, Whale Street, and Scales of Fate.
Somehow Ghost Turkey returned. And you never saw it coming! That might be because we forgot to remind people that it’s Thanksgiving, but never mind that, the important thing is you’re fools. Not us though, we’re back with yet another juicy, cranberry soaked list of bird gaming goodness. Gobble gobble!
BGBBOB is back, and it’s been long enough that you might need a reminder. Ten game designers enter the ring, and through the arduous process of one vs one battles, we arrive at our (and not just our, but the) definitive ranked list of … these particular designers. It’s science. Before we fight it out, we talk about Iliad, The Old King’s Crown, and Franchise.
