Boxed Culture: Comparing Cardboard – Mansions of Madness

Comparing Cardboard Mansions of Madness Typically on Boxed Culture I really do not do many board game reviews. There are plenty of wonderful other board game reviewers and I do not really feel like I would offer anything significant to their discussions. I have a few I like more than others […]


The Living Card Guy: Building Your Deck – Part 1

Building Your Deck – Part 1 In my opinion the best part of playing LCGs is the deck building. I may not be good at it for some games but I have been known to put together some mean combos in other games. The awesome part of all LCGs is […]


The Living Card Guy: In The Wake of War

 In The Wake of War There is a lot of sadness in the wake of the passing of Conquest. The lack of ability for Games Workshop to get their heads out of their butts and making generally bad business decisions will hopefully takes its toll soon enough. But let’s set aside […]


Boxed Culture: When Worlds Collide

When Worlds Collide Arkham Horror The Card Game was released last week. This new Lovecraftian LCG from Fantasy Flight Games sets out to combine the best parts of an RPG and LCG into one glorious package. It is set in FFG’s Arkham Files universe and it is really exciting! The […]


Boxed Culture: What is a Confirmed Rumor Anyway?

This list is titled NAPD Most Wanted List, appropriately thematic for the game it self. The cards on the list are those which Fantasy Flight Games has deemed improperly balanced […]


Boxed Culture: A League Of Our Own

Often times a LGS will run events for gaming.  A draft for MTG, a tournament for Splendor, or even a league for an LCG. They will run these events to garner interest in a community surrounding a game or to build upon an already established community. These events are also a […]


Boxed Culture: The 10 Foot Tournament Pole

Recently, the yearly LCG tournament circuit finished, or as far as I will probably ever go anyway. They hold Store Championships and Regional Championships in state, then the National Championships and World Championships are out of state. So, I will probably only ever partake in the Store Champs and Regional Championships as I am bad at saving for travel, haha. With the […]


Boxed Culture: War is in the Cards – Then 1

I wrote this article about a year ago when Conquest came out. Next week I will write a follow up and reflection on the current state of the game, but enjoy this article for now! I have been listening to lots of podcasts about gaming, as I do with a […]
