The Board Gaming Doctor
Hello everyone, welcome to the Board Gaming Doctor, my name is Phil, and I will be your board game doctor today. I diagnose games based on strategic depth, and love going into what it takes to win a game. But if a game is purely fun that matters too. I primarily enjoy medium to heavy Euro-style games, but all games are welcome on my table. In particular, I subspecialize in Uwe Rosenberg games, and often blog about them. Thanks, and hope you schedule an appointment with your board game doctor real soon!
