Degenesis Clan Wars Prototype Review — My Junk Food Campaign Gaming @Shelfside

Uploaded July 2024 | Updated September 2026, 3 weeks ago

We review this tactical skirmisher set in the Degenesis world! Based on the critically acclaimed tabletop RPG, this SixMoreVodka and CMON gamefound games promises one vs. all asymmetrical gaming. One side plays as the Protectorate, the ruthless government, and the other as the Hostile controlling the warring tribes that seek to gain justice for their lost land and elders. Every scenario has hidden information and a modular board, with the hostile acting as a sort of game master to unveil information of their choosing. With push your luck mechanics and tons of variable player powers, does this Ameritrash game offer interest in a fairly sparse one vs. all campaign genre? This review covers a prototype, which does all of the 4 preview missions, and discusses the operatives expansion that has 12 more operatives to unlock.

Degenesis Clan Wars Prototype Review — My Junk Food Campaign Gaming

WTF is this Board Game Shelving System?

$Reviewing EVERY Exploding Kittens Game of 2025 We cover Exploding Kittens’ 10 year anniversary with the reprint of the card game and the exploding kittens board game! As well as 11 other entries, for a total of 13 games covered in this massive review! Admist all of the take that and hand management of these games, do have the depth we’d expect from our normal coverage of BGG games? In fact, the games are quirky with solid components, but their quality control with balance and rules may need some work. Still, there’s social strategy with alliances in something like Survivor: The Tribe Has Spoken, or educational elements in Monster Match! Just hope you don’t get eliminated too quickly in some of the longer ones! Even Tim Ferris and Jeff Probst are designers amongst all of these selections!

Heat: Pedal to the Metal Review — Fast, but thematically limited?

$Reviewing EVERY Uno at Target We bought every single UNO product at our local Target, and reviewed them! In total, we’re covering 16 items, from packs like UNO Bilie Eilish to UNO Golf. But are these games meaningfully adding onto the UNO formula of hand management and some dexterity through shouting UNO? After all, the color matching is the most important thing with minimal take-that through the draw 2 card. Admist all of the top BGG games we normally review, and even Exploding Kittens that we reviewed, can these games get a decent score? Can making UNO like a TCG with booster packs in UNO Elite, with drafting, improve it? A speed mechanic to increase the amount of cards played every turn? Or adding in a machine to spray out cards in UNO Attack? At the end of it, maybe you should just buy the $2 packs instead.

$Elden Ring: Rot and Sorcery ▸ Shelfside Plays Elden Ring is in a board game from Steamforged games to cooperatively work together to defeat bosses in scenarios! We manage our hands of cards, trying to stitch together a combo, while positioning on the grid map. We want to re-orient the spells in the marching order so we dont get hit! The bigger game has NPCs to fight with, and many upgrades for your character to achieve. You can even construct your deck! Can we defeat the Red Wolf of Ratagon before it downs us 3 times? How does this game blend Ameritrash and Euro mechanics for a satisfying boss battler, a bit like Kingdom Death Monster?
