The Man Who Was Today
https://spacebiff.com/2026/06/11/the-man-who-was-thursday/
Published: June 11, 2026 19:28
I wouldn’t go as far as to say that G.K. Chesterton’s The Man Who Was Thursday saved my life. Probably it would be more accurate to say it built my life. The novel arrived at a pivotal moment in my adolescence. I was seventeen. Dumb with hormones, dumb…
Talking About Games: Death & Preservation
https://spacebiff.com/2026/06/10/talking-about-games-21/
Published: June 11, 2026 01:05
Every so often, I’ll write something that receives a weird amount of hostility. The most emblematic example is Foucault in the Woodland, my series examining Cole Wehrle’s Root through the lens of Michel Foucault. This is especially weird because Wehrle has…
Liberation Ludology, Part One: Uruguay
https://spacebiff.com/2026/06/09/guerrilla-generation-1/
Published: June 9, 2026 23:20
It’s safe to say that The Guerrilla Generation is the wargame I’ve been looking forward to the most since its announcement on the heels of The British Way. Like that title, this is a multipack by Stephen Rangazas, once again using Volko Ruhnke’s COIN…
You Stay in That Television!

All I play anymore is trick-takers. I don’t play as many trick-takers as I used to. For the most part, that’s fine by me. Sometimes, too much of a good thing makes for a real tummy ache, and while it’s a rare week that doesn’t see me tackling at least one…
Colossissippi
https://spacebiff.com/2026/06/04/colossi/
Published: June 4, 2026 23:19
Despite being the creation of John Rudolph Drexler, Colossi reminds me of an early John Clowdus design. At really every point, come to think of it. There’s the shape of the thing: a lane-battler packed with powerful abilities that constantly reform its…
Scribbly Koalas
https://spacebiff.com/2026/06/03/scribbly-gum-koala-rescue-club/
Published: June 4, 2026 01:34
My odyssey through Postmark’s catalog of single-sheet print-and-play games continues. This week’s titles are none other than Scribbly Gum and Koala Rescue Club, both designed and illustrated by Phil and Meredith Walker-Harding. You can tell we’ve reached…
A Crack in the World
https://spacebiff.com/2026/06/02/witch-hunt-1649/
Published: June 3, 2026 01:58
I wouldn’t wish to inflict board game drama on anybody who wasn’t already saturated in the stuff, so I’ll keep the details sparse, but the past couple of weeks saw a minor authority figure on BoardGameGeek sharing his views on demonic possession with a…
Forget the Flippers
https://spacebiff.com/2026/06/01/flip-voyage/
Published: June 1, 2026 20:00
It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call Steven Aramini one of our hobby’s finest designers of small-format board games. Whether we’re talking about microgames like Sprawlopolis and Ancient Realm, or Fliptown, still perhaps the finest flip-and-write game…
Class Reunion: Euphoria
https://spacebiff.com/2026/05/26/euphoria-essential-edition/
Published: May 26, 2026 20:54
It’s been thirteen years since the original release of Jamey Stegmaier’s Euphoria: Build a Better Dystopia. I would say it doesn’t feel like thirteen years, but I’d be lying. Between the pandemic and five or six successive generations of board game…
Combat Results Postcard
https://spacebiff.com/2026/05/25/battle-card/
Published: May 26, 2026 01:52
Battle Card is as apt as descriptions get. Designed by David Thompson and Nils Johansson, this is the fourth project in the Postmark Games lineup. Like its earlier peers — Voyages, Aquamarine, and Waypoints — this is a print-and-play title that can be…
