What I’m Playing

LAST UPDATED JULY 16, 2019

I’ll try to keep this page updated with what games I’m currently playing through, and what’s on my pile of shame.


ACTIVELY PLAYING:

The 7th Continent  – Playing solo through “An Offering to the Guardians”

Betrayal Legacy – Playing a 5-player campaign, on the final chapter, Chapter 13

Charterstone – Playing a 2-player campaign, on Chapter 6 of 12

Chronicles of Crime – Playing solo, finished 2 of the 5 cases that come with the base game

Dawn of Peacemakers – Playing solo through the campaign, on Chapter 9 of 12

Detective: City of Angels – Playing solo through the cases in Sleuth Mode, finished 1 of the 12 cases

Gloomhaven: Forgotten Circles – Playing solo through the campaign with the Diviner and (Triforce) class.  Just started it, only have beaten the first scenario of the expansion.

The Tale of Ord – An episodic tabletop narrative experience, playing solo.  Currently on the last part, Part 4, and sad to see it end!

TIME Stories – My wife and I are slowly making our way through Brotherhood of the Coast.  It’s near impossible to find enough time in an evening to play a session of this, and have been prioritizing watching some Netflix series instead.

The Wilson Wolfe Affair – A huge tabletop narrative experience and puzzle hunt, playing solo.  I think I’ve solved maybe 8 of the 50(?) puzzles in the game.

 


PILE OF SHAME:

The 7th Continent – I’ve played and beaten “The Voracious Goddess” and “The Crystal’s Song”, but I have yet to beat 10 of the 12 curses, or try out 3 optional expansions.

Arkham Horror: The Card Game – Still need to play The Circle Undone mythos cycle, as well as the various hard-mode “Return To” cycles

Chronicles of Crime – Also own the Redview and Noir expansions

Comanauts – About to try it out, not really sure if the “campaign mode” really is a thing or not

Detective: A Modern Crime Boardgame – LA Crimes – Planning to play it solo

Escape Tales: The Awakening – A longer form escape-room inspired game (takes like 3 hours or so to beat) that has a branching narrative, sounds cool!  Planning to play solo.

EXIT – Still need to play The Mysterious Manor and the Sinister Mansion

Gen7: A Crossroads Game – Tried playing it solo, but it wasn’t that much fun.  Tried finding a group to play it, no takers.  Tried selling it, no buyers.  It’s cursed.

Graphic Novel Adventures – Collection of five interactive graphic novel adventure books, originally published in France by Blue Orange and brought to the US by Van Ryder Games.  I have finished Captive, but still need to read/play the other four.

Holding On: The Troubled Life of Billy Kerr – I bought this, but have yet to crack it open

Ironclad – My Kickstarter copy arrived, planning to play it solo at some point

Kingdom Death: Monster – Still need to beat a campaign of People of the Stars and People of the Sun, but waiting until Wave 3 arrives to start a new campaign.  Also have yet to fight some of the 1.0 expansion monsters: Spidicules, Lion God, Lonely Tree, and Dragon King

Middara – At long last, my copy of Middara has arrived!  But I’m going to wait until the update pack in 2020 to actually start my campaign.

Near and Far w/ The Amber Mines – Was hoping to play this 2-player with a friend, but we’re currently busy with Charterstone.

Robinson Crusoe – Need to play the Lost City of Z campaign that came with Mystery Tales.  I’ve been waiting years for this expansion to come out!

So Long, My World – Got my Kickstarter copy, and initial buzz from people has been good.  Need to try out the solo campaign mode

TIME Stories – Still need to play Madame expansion after we beat Brotherhood of the Coast

Unlock! – Still need to play all the scenarios from Exotic Adventures and Heroic Adventures
