I'm just some dude. A cardboard cowboy. I also write Space-Biff!, the world's first and only board game review site.

Earthborne Rangers is a quietly revolutionary game, an improvement on the adventure card games of years past, one that invites us into a wild and vibrant world. My review: spacebiff.com/2024/05/02/ear…

ArcheOlogic, from one of the creators behind Turing Machine, is a doohickey deduction game about unearthing a buried city. It's quite the feat of engineering. It's also a snooze. My review: spacebiff.com/2024/05/01/arc…

As weird as it is to see your face (you know what I mean) on an ad, I really do hope more people check out Power Vacuum.

Power Vacuum is trick-taking by way of The Death of Stalin. It's vicious and excellent, a perfect example of the current renaissance of trick-takers. My preview: spacebiff.com/2024/04/30/pow…

Many things elevate my writing — my editors, reader feedback, the work of countless other authors. But their one commonality is that they are all human beings, spontaneous and wonderful and full of life, not some dead homunculus made to twitch and jerk in human fashion.

Arcs is a board game I’ve been curiously watching. Dan’s review is top notch and has me wanting to get Arcs on my table.

I'm thrilled to announce that I've been collaborating with League of Geeks to add my likeness to Solium Infernum! This was a challenging process as I've never modeled before, but the results speak for themselves!

Dan takes the throne as my favorite board games writer with this review. Check how he (a history buff) explains the puzzle in Arcs where you draw the wrong cards at the wrong times: “every empire swims upstream against a current of its own making.” Dear Lord.

Arcs by Cole and Leder Games feels like the fulfillment of a promise. This is a civilization game writ large, spoken into being via trick-taking, interpersonal relationships, and the development of entire cultures. My review: spacebiff.com/2024/04/23/arc…

A thoughtful and insightful article about the latest offering from Jay Cormier and myself through Jay's imprint Off the Page Games - Dan's comments hit home and are making me think about the game's journey from start to today's launch. It's been a tough one.

Vampire Village puts hate-drafting front and center. Which is a good thing, given how much I love giving nasty cards to my friends. My review: spacebiff.com/2024/04/18/vam…

Despite my long affection for the Undaunted series, Undaunted: Battle of Britain finds its reach exceeding its grasp as it takes to the skies. My review: spacebiff.com/2024/04/17/und…
