Testing times
As an avid tabletop gamer you will know that new games come out all the time, but what is not always clear is how much testing time has gone into creating a new game.
Keeping it in
If you host a regular games night, you probably know the feeling of getting everything ready in time before everyone arrives.
Teaching games
If you love tabletop games, you probably end up buying new games all the time.
Light, camera… action selection!
Tabletop games come in a huge variety with many different mechanics - and in this article I want to focus on a number of action selection mechanism which I think are interesting.
Dice mechanics
We all know classic dice rolling games, like Yahtzee, or games using dice to decide the outcome of battles or events.

A lot of games are aimed at three or more players, even though most state a player count of two and up.
Give me a break

If you regularly play tabletop games, you will come across a situation where someone is trying to lose intentionally.
Get me a lawyer!
All games have some sort of rules - even if they are very basic or very fluid.
