Hi ,


I was going to ask if you've seen any signs of spring yet, but we just had that nasty winter storm. We're pretty far south and still got colder than I'd like! Wherever you are, I hope you're staying warm enough!


Last month on the blog, we had new game reviews published:

  • My favorite escape room we've tried so far!
  • I got Brave New Worlds on a Kickstarter years ago, when my son was super into space and way too young for the game. We finally tried it properly and it's really cool!
  • Carmen Sandiego is based on the old computer game and it's a different sort of "whodunit."
  • Loot is one of our favorite pirate-themed games for many reasons!

This month, look for reviews on Alibi, a roundup of all the whodunnit games we've tried, Silver and Gold, and a roundup of all the pirate-themed games we've tried.


On the YouTube channel, we have new play-throughs up of Not Parent Approved, Latice, Mission: Survival, and Herd Your Horses. This month, look for play-throughs of Habitat, Wednesday, Here to Slay, and Shifting Stones.


I hope your homeschooling is going well. If I can ever be of help to you, please don't hesitate to reach out! Until next time,

Happy Gaming!

P.S. I am very excited to announce that I've been working on a unit study for spring, so keep your eyes out for it! I have 1 brand-new mystery game already completed for it, plus a few more planned. I'm starting to get excited!
