Today we’re joined by Jason Kingsley, half of the design team for Ophir, a new game on Kickstarter from Terra Nova Games.
Jason! Thanks for joining us today.
First, can you tell us a little bit about yourself?
Sure! First, thank you for having me! My wife, three boys, and I live in a small town in Northwest Arkansas surrounded by the beauty of the Ozarks.
Read MoreWell it's hard to believe, but today we're celebrating our second Blogiversary! And that means gifts!
Read MoreOne of the first games I played when I got into this hobby was Mike Fitzgerald's Mystery Rummy: Jack the Ripper. The Mystery Rummy games are a series of card games that take the standard rummy game and give it a new twist. They're great games, and a terrific choice for nongamers and new gamers. They've been out-of-print for a few years...until now. But the news is even better! There's a new game!
Read MoreMost of us probably have too many games--more games than we can reasonably play. But still...there's that one game that we'd love to get our hands on. It's out of print right now, but maybe someday...
Read MoreWell it seems like it's Voluspa week here at Theology of Games. We had the review for the base game. Then we interviewed the designer. And today we're reviewing Order of the Gods, the new expansion for the game. So let's check it out!
Read MoreAnother week is quickly closing here at TOG -and, well everywhere I guess- and Kickstarter has all but exploded with some pretty exciting titles from some of our favorite publishers, so quit the gabbing and jump into this thing!!!
This campaign is exactly what you think it is! It's a box full of amazingly sweet bits for your games! This thing is packed full of ultra high quality game pieces it comes with six different types: real metal gold bars and ore chunks, resin cast bricks, wood, stone and gems. Obviously these are going to work great with Stonemaier's latest release Euphoria, but there is also a list of games that you can drop these tokens into and enhance your experience. If there's anything we've learned over the past year, it's that Stonemaier knows how to over-deliver on their campaigns, so there won't be any disappointment s here!
Read MoreToday we’re joined by Scott Caputo, designer of Völuspá, a Norse-themed tile-laying game from Stronghold Games.
Read MoreOne of the first Euros I ever played was the classic Carcassonne. I think it's why I have a soft spot for tile-laying games. So I was excited to try Völuspá, a Norse-themed tile-laying game from our friends at Stronghold Games. So is it hot as Dragon's fire, or will I give it the cold shoulder...? Let's find out.
Read MoreToday we’re joined by Mike and Kelsey Domeny the couple behind Two Penny Games and the currently Kickstarting Amberden Affair.

First, can you tell us a little about yourselves?
Mike: I am Mike
Kelsey: And I am Kelsey
Mike: Oh, you were expecting more?
