Theology of Games is a multimedia site filled with original content about the happenings in the tabletop gaming industry. We talk games via written reviews, podcasts, and video!
You're not supposed to judge a book by its cover, right? But let's be honest: It usually saves a lot of time! So for this week's Weekly Wonder, we're wondering: What game did you prejudge--based on art, or cover, or subject, or whatever--only to have it surprise you when you actually played it?
Read MoreWell it's getting crazy up in here! And today we've got two more winners to announce! That's right, the slots are getting filled quickly, so you should go sign up right now if you still want in on this great set of prizes!!
So...who won today?!
Read MoreWell, happy Monday everyone! And welcome to the LAST week of July. The end of July and beginning of August means many things: a new school year is right around the corner, GenCon looms ever closer, and, of course, the end of our Blogiversary contest!
But never fear! While we've selected six winners, there are still eight--8!--more names still to be drawn! Once all the winners have been selected, we'll randomly assign the winners one of our awesome prizes. So, yes, all of the prizes are still on the table!!
Read MoreWe like to think that every time we write a post announcing the latest winners, it's like those scenes in Willy Wonka, when people gathered around their television sets brimming with envy at the winners, and filled with despair that they are one step closer to missing out on the greatest prizes ever. So, please, let us just keep thinking that!
Anyway, we've pulled two more names, which leaves eight more prizes available! There's still time to get in so don't forget to sign up and spread the word!
Read MoreOh yes... We know we missed Kickstarter Weekly last week, and yes, we've already told you about two pretty awesome campaigns this week. But we feel it's necessary and expected that we bring you this week's Kickstarter weekly piece and assemble all the campaigns that are worth taking a look at, riiiiight here:
The Resistance - Hostile Intent & Hidden Agenda
Yes, we've gone over this before, but, seriously adding these two expansions will give you more Resistance than Georg Ohm. One pledge scores you both expansions, and each one comes with multiple modules that give you tons of variable roles to include in your regular version of the Resistance. There are also two additional modules that are exclusive to Kickstarter backers. So what are you waiting for!
Read MoreToday we’re joined by our friend Jason Kotarski, designer of The Great Heartland Hauling Company, among others. He’s launching a new endeavor, and took the time to talk to us about it.
Jason! Thanks for this.
Thanks for taking the time!
So for people who might not know you, tell us a little about yourself.
Sure. Let’s see. I’m a game designer and a pastor living in Flint, Michigan, with my awesome wife and two daughters. I’ve been diving deeper and deeper into gaming for the last 10 years. It’s been fun to explore this hobby that is as much about the people that you do it with as the hobby itself. I love people so it’s been a blast.
Read MoreAaargh! As though my wallet wasn't already hurting from yesterday's announcement of a Resistance expansion on Kickstarter, now the new Stefan Feld is on Kickstarter, too. And it'll be gone in just over a week.
Read MoreSo, I know we typically hold off on reporting on Kickstarter campaigns until our Kickstarter Weekly piece comes out late in the week, but this is the Resistance!
Read MoreThe summer's heating up, and so is our giveaway contest. Two more winners. Is one of them you...?
Read MoreToday's review is a little different. It's not a game, but if you play games (and we assume you do!), then you should definitely pay attention to this one. It's the Quiver Gaming Mat, and it's awesome.
Read MoreTwo Geeks, Hundreds of Games, One God. We bring you the best in board game talk, tabletop news and compelling interviews with those in the boardgame industry! Stay tuned for all things gaming, here on Theology of Games!
