  • Join Rob as he cracks open a fresh copy of Wine & Cheese, a brand new two-player release from designer Scott Almes. In this unboxing, Rob walks through everything in the box — from the 20-page rulebook and its illustrations to the sleeve-style component boxes, the various card decks, and the surprisingly large game board. He takes a first look at the build quality and setup layout, giving you a full tour of what to expect inside. Wine & Cheese is set in the heart of beautiful Burgundy, where you and your opponent run traditional farms producing both wine and cheese. Using an innovative paired-worker system, you'll gather ingredients and carefully time the production, aging, and sale of your goods, all while balancing earnings from both wine and cheese to claim victory. Blending worker placement with card management, it's a deep, strategic experience designed for two players and plays in about 45–75 minutes. 00:00 Intro 01:11 Rulebook 01:48 Component Boxes 02:47 Cards 03:35 Card Types 05:11 Game Board 05:50 Board Setup 06:21 Final Thoughts https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/461919/wine-cheese

  • Join Rob as he cracks open the brand-new 20 Strong: Nemesis from Chip Theory Games, part of the Awakened Realms series. In this unboxing, Rob walks through everything in the box, from the general rules of play and game-specific rule books to the play reference sheets, dice, magnetic tracker, and Chip Theory's signature high-quality PVC cards. Follow along as he explores the components piece by piece and gives you a first look at how this card-and-dice adventure is put together. 20 Strong: Nemesis is a compact solo-to-3-player game where you're desperately trying to escape a ship and reach Earth in one piece. Roll dice to move through the ship, power up critical systems like generators and engines, prep the escape pods, and salvage useful items along the way—all while evading intruders and making noise the longer you take. Every player has their own objectives, and sometimes those goals mean others might not make it off the ship alive. Designed by Joshua Carlson and Logan Giannini and published in 2026, it plays in about 40–60 minutes. 00:00 Intro 00:52 Rule Book 02:07 Dice and Score Tracker 04:08 Nemesis Rules 06:17 Play Reference 07:17 Cards Overview 08:34 Room and Item Cards 11:11 Additional Sets 12:15 Final Thoughts https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/466594/20-strong-nemesis

  • Rob unboxes Entropy from Boards&Dice. He digs through everything the campaign included, from the luminescent lifeform card promo and extra components to the main box packed with resources, player pieces, cards, and rulebooks. Follow along as Rob explores the quality of the components, the bits, and the overall contents to see exactly what you get in the box. Entropy is a 2026 release from designers Tommaso Battista and Simone Luciani for 1–4 players, playing in 90–150 minutes. You take on the role of a scientist apprentice undertaking a final exam: creating new solar systems, coaxing stars to life, shaping biomes, and ultimately seeding planets with life. Each turn you move your Scientist clockwise around the main board and resolve actions to build solar systems and fill them with life by playing cards, while upgrading your Console for special abilities. The game ends once two of the six Main Objectives are completed, and the player with the most Victory Points wins. 00:00 Intro 00:47 Campaign Extras 03:37 Opening the Box 06:19 Score Sheets Player Aids 07:03 Rule Books 11:27 Card Components 15:08 Player Board 16:09 Punchboard Tiles 19:07 Component Overview 20:25 Final Thoughts https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/462941/entropy
