I’m Rob (aka Jesta ThaRogue), just a guy from England that loves Games, (Board, Card and Computer) Sports, TV, Films, Pro Wrestling etc
Videos are available on the Youtube Channel, check them out. Also, I occasionally stream on Twitch. You’ll also find other board and non-board game-related stuff on Instagram.
So what will you find on this site?
Written First Impressions
This is an overview of the games I played for the first time. Some I own, most I won’t but I give a short overview of the rules and then look at the game based on 5 categories: Theme, Setup, Components & Artwork and Ease of Teaching plus the Final Summary.
How to Play Videos & Written Reviews
I’m reviewing ALL the games in my Board Game collection.
Once I play them enough to get a good idea of the game itself I record a comprehensive “How to play” video and a smaller round-up with my thoughts and opinions.
The How to Play videos are not meant to be a rulebook replacement. They are a quick overview for those that want to see if the game looks interesting. Maybe you’re playing the game for the first time and want a quick overview before sitting at the table. Or maybe you haven’t played it for a while and need a refresher.
Convention Coverage
If I play games at a convention I just do a written review as normal. But if I’m invited as press I do a quick video overview of the board game convention and the games I play in video form ranking all the games I played.
This will replace the individual review videos I used to do that no one watched! 🙂
I hope you enjoy it! (Feel free to comment)
