About this Site:
This site contains board game reviews, video game reviews, and other goodies, all written by yours truly. You can keep up to date on any news I may have using the “Site News” tab above. The “Legal” tab will tell you what my rules are about sharing my content. The “Video Games” and “Board Games” tabs will give you a list of all of the games I’ve covered, along with links to the articles. The “Misc” tab contains articles that I’ve written that pertain to anything that doesn’t fit under board games and video games.

Inquiries & Business Opportunities:
Please contact me at vmp0514@msn.com regarding any of the below topics:
*Reviews & Product Promotion
*Previews for Kickstarter Projects
*Submitting Sponsored Content
*Renting Banner/Ad Space
*Press Releases
I charge for written Kickstarter previews, press releases, and ad space. If I like the game enough then I’ll feature it on my YouTube channel as well free of charge, though I make no promises due to medical issues and other reasons. I’ve had developers specifically request a YouTube video and offered to pay for one, so I take those requests on a case by case basis. I do not mail games forward without postage being paid for. I can preview print and plays, though I highly recommend sending me 1-3 good photos to include in the article in order to best represent the game. Turnaround times are roughly 2-5 days.
At present, I do charge for reviews due to the number of requests that I receive and to help pay for my medical bills. In order for me to review a product, it must already be retailing or retailing soon AND of the same quality a customer would receive should they buy it. Paying for my time does NOT guarantee a positive review and yes, I will publish articles with low review scores. You have a right to feedback, positive or negative, and readers have a right to hear why I may or may not have liked the game.

Hello,
I work for the game publishing company OGPlanet and I am currently working on the MMO broswer-based game Heroes of the Realm (www.heroesoftherealm.com). I really like your blog and reviews. If you would be interested in writing a review for Heroes of the Realm or any of our F2P games that would be great!
If you decide to do a review of any of our games, please send me an email with the link to it, I would love to read it.
Cheers,
Kyle

Hi from New Zealand 🙂 Love your X-Wing video series!
Vince, what a wonderful comprehensive list of games/reviews.
Is there a way to sort the reviews by suggested age?
Thanks for the compliment!
Unfortunately no, I have to manually add games to this list and doing so alphabetically seemed the best way to go. If you tell me what you’re looking for though, I might be able to offer some suggestions.
Hi
me and my kids really like your site.
We come to it every time we are checking out a new game.
We were curious if you have, or are going to review “The Resistance”
Thanks for all you do
Have a great day
marquis

We don’t have that game, but I’ve been eyeing it for a while. Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment and check out the site!
I noticed you have not played Settlers of Catan. It is a bit more pricey in terms of board games (like ticket to ride) but it is a really fun game that you have to review!
I’ve both played and reviewed it. Check out my Board Games tab, you’ll find the review there.
