So here’s the deal.
I have a box.
This box holds five items. I show you one item. A gold bar. True gold. The truest gold you’ve ever seen. I place it in the box, and say that there are four other gold bars in the box.
My offer is a million dollars – or whatever gold goes for these days.
Would you buy it?

I’m going to be honest. It’s Wednesday night, and I haven’t finished my review. I’m about half-way through. And I’m hating whatever I’m writing so far. Therefore, instead of pushing some half-baked crap out, you get this word vomit instead. Enjoy!
My birthday has come and gone. And this year it was the most INSANE, the most CRAZY, the most RIDICULOUS board game birthday yet. Everyone bought me board games, or board game related stuff. I was not expecting it, and I’m super grateful for my friends and family as they went above and beyond what any sane group of people should have done.

Have ye heard the tale? A board game that wanders into town at night searching for lost tokens. Collecting them. Adding them to its box. And wandering off into the night? It is a tale as old as time, and yet no one has seen this board game.
No one, that is, until now.
