    Been playing some Deep Rock galactic and Nemesis Aftermath. Got Mint Imperium, Mint Knight and Pirate Cove which are all strategy games sized to fit inside a mint box, plan is to test them out soonish… Should be interesting :D

      How is the Deep Rock Galactic game? Love the video game and the board game looked interesting but I never pulled the trigger.

        We only have one session under our belt, but initial impressions were pretty good. I too love DRG, but I was sceptical that the boardgame would capture the feeling good enough, but I think they managed it. The rules are good enough, it’s got a “light” complexity (warning: I play a lot of rule heavy board games so ymmv) Quality of minis are very good. The only thing I worry about is replay ability. Its got quite a few missions you can play, but it felt a tad shallow so I’m not sure if it can keep our attention for years…

        Anyways, my 3 cents on it… :D

          Thanks for the input! Yeah I play a lot of very rule heavy games too so I would probably view it as light as well. Might have to put it on my ever growing list of games to buy!
