WELCOME TO MY LITTLE BOARD-GAME WORLD

Game Room

The Game Room is the index to this board's game collections: five archives in total, all now open for browsing. Sysop Picks is a personal collection — six games the SysOp chose individually, regardless of weight class. The other four are a separate BGG-weight archive: each files five games by BoardGameGeek's community weight rating alone, with no claim that the SysOp has played, rated or recommends any title in them.

The four weight bands are an Amber Dice house classification: Filler is below 1.5, Light is 1.5 up to (but below) 2.5, Medium is 2.5 to 3.5 inclusive, and Heavy is above 3.5, on BGG's 1–5 complexity scale. See the Rules Archive for more on how these bands are drawn.

Personal recommendations from the SysOp — six games worth a look regardless of weight class, each with its own full record. Open this archive →

2. Filler

WEIGHT BELOW 1.5

The quickest games on the shelf — light enough to open or close an evening without eating into the main event. Open this archive →

3. Light

WEIGHT 1.5 – 2.5

Approachable strategy games that still reward a bit of planning. Open this archive →

4. Medium

WEIGHT 2.5 – 3.5

The house's mid-weight shelf — more demanding than a filler night, short of an all-evening commitment. Open this archive →

5. Heavy

WEIGHT ABOVE 3.5

The long, dense end of the collection, for evenings set aside for one game. Open this archive →
