About this site

I’ve been a lifelong gamer. Lately tabletop games, but over my life I’ve been an Atari 2600, Nintendo 8-bit, Playstation, and Wii gamer. There’s even been the infrequent role playing campaign.

I’ll be posting a collection of reviews, game night re-caps, and anything gaming I feel like writing about. I may be joined occasionally by my gaming friends and family, too! Look for their posts to hear other perspectives on gaming.
