‘Taverns of Tiefenthal’ Board Game Review

by Matthew Smail

The thematic elements of a board game are very important to me, and I often choose to play games that have a focus on something that I enjoy in other areas of my life. The issue with that, however is that it’s quite easy for a game to look the part, but I like it […]

Friday Night Smackdown – Nov 22nd 2019: Results & Review

by Nathan Favel

Welcome to this week’s SmackDown review, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and this show has really sucked since…2003. 2009 was quite good, but that didn’t last too long.

‘Olympia #1’ Review (Image Comics)

by Dean Fuller

Written by Curt Pires | Art by Alex Diotto | Published by Image Comics Every comic book at its heart has an element of wish fulfillment. Comics evolved as entertainment for kids, and the sidekick trope was created to give those kids someone to identify with alongside their favourite hero. If you were like me, […]

‘Age of Dirt’ Board Game Review

by Matthew Smail

If you look back to my reviews of both Stone Age and Stone Age: Anniversary Edition, not to mention Evolution: Climate, you’ll probably get the impression that I am quite the fan of games that deal with ancient history, probably because I love exploring the educational aspects of these games with younger members of my […]

As far as shooters go, it’s not my favourite genre. I have nothing against them but I’m a very story-focused gamer and shooters can sometimes be light on that. However, like anything in life, there are exceptions to the rule. I grew up with a Nintendo 64 as a kid which would spoil you with […]
