  • Anathema

    I wrote a review of Anathema. It’s in Finnish as usual. Anathema is interesting game for me, mostly because of it’s art. Drew Tucker is one of my favourite artists and Anathema offers a deck full of his art! What a catch! The game is actually less interesting. It’s a very slightly changed version of…

  • Lahti games weekend, Saturday and Sunday

    After a badly slept night a new morning dawned. While waiting for the breakfast, I played a game of 6 Nimmt!. We played it differently, using (almost) the Terminal City Gamers variant.

  • Anathema

    Check out Anathema, a Casino variant from APE Games. The card art is probably the best I’ve ever seen. But that’s no wonder, as it’s all done by Drew Tucker, who is one of the best artists I know. Check out his Magic card art, for example. There’s also a competition on the APE Games…
