Board Games · by Aarav Sharma · 2026-08-30

brought home too many games from the convention and now the shelf is making a legal case against me

I went in saying one medium box maximum. Came out with a bag, two promos I do not need, and a train game because the demo guy looked me in the eye and said "you seem like somebody who respects logistics." devastatingly accurate.

Shelf still full of unplayed optimism from last winter too.

At least train games hold value if you bounce. there is always a dad named Peter waiting.

Promos are free candy for adults with worse self-control.

I made a one-in one-out rule and then simply ignored it. powerful system.

"respects logistics" would get me instantly as well.
