Black text that reads BoardGameWire on a yellow background. On the left is a hollow square with thick back sides, with tiny slits in the top left and bottom right corners. The logo for board game news website BoardGameWire.

I think some readers come across BoardGameWire and think it must be a relatively big operation, backed by a larger company. For clarity - it's not! It's just me, Mike, fitting in interviewing, researching and writing hundreds of articles each year around a day job and taking care of my two kids! 1/2

Played Pax Porfiriana last night. My 2nd dive into a Pax game. While I got smoked, the card play was really interesting. Excited to see the "ultimate edition" coming out later this year. @iongamedesign.com #boardgames #history #gaming #cardgame #mexico #tabletop

Burum: The Journey from Family Tradition to Card Game Innovation... Burum is a heartfelt, fast-paced card game born from family tradition, blending tactical play and shared experiences into a homegrown success story that's sweeping its way into the board game world.

My first piece of board game "journalism" is live! I met two sisters from Iowa at GAMA who, along with their family, turned a homemade card game into a fully published title. Enjoy the story of their journey! #burum #gaming #tabletop #boardgames #cardgames www.meeplemountain.com/articles/bur...
