Usually when I review and recommend a board game here on the podcast, I’ve played that game at least ten times. That way I know the game well and I know it has some staying power. But sometimes, I try a game that's new to me and it really grabs me. So here’s a FIRST PLAY review of an older game that I think you might like!

Today we’ll take a look at Flipships, a 2017 cooperative dexterity game for 2to 4 players designed by Kane Klenko with art by Kwanchai Moriya published by Renegade Games.

In this episode, we spend a weekend in a cabin in the woods and play a whole lot of board games! A few friends and I recently spent a weekend playing board games at a cabin we rented in Cedars of Lebanon State Park. We played the board games that don’t fit into normal game nights! Most ran about three hours long, some longer. These are the crunchy, brain-burning games that some of us love to play, and in this episode of the podcast, I report out on the games we played, all of which were fantastic.

That means I usually review older games, but I like to play new games, too. So here’s a FIRST PLAY review of a new game that I think you might like!
