The Board Gaming Doctor

Leisure EN ↓ 176 episodes

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!

"Ibyron: Island of Discovery" First Impressions 25.10.2023 27:37

This is a game that is not widely distributed but has been in development for a long time by Scott and Anna-Marie Nelson. They invited me to play and talk about this game, and I do so out of genuine interest and not for any financial gain. Please check out this game's page on BGG and hopefully at some point this game will come to Kickstarter. BGG page: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/16243...

Reviewing reviews about board games, and how I'm going to change 05.09.2023 18:39

After witnessing a review of Oranienburger Kanal by a well-known board game review channel, I wanted to share my reflections about the reviewing process that happens in our hobby, and what I'm going to do differently on the podcast because of that.
