Welcome, and good to see you! We’re pleased to present the latest issue of Tabletop SPIRIT Magazine here for you to download and enjoy… And sincerely hope you’re all set for the festive season ahead…
Whether you love it or hate it, Tony Boydell’s Cult of the Old feature will hopefully encourage you to give the game of Monopoly a second chance, preferably by not using any of the ‘traditional house rules’ people have come to know and loathe…
We also got the chance for a personal chat with Ivy, the manager of a comics and hobby store on the tiny island of Cyprus, giving a real insight into the RPG and boardgaming communities in that part of the world, and have 3 differing views from this year’s Spiel Essen.
As well, there’s the first part of a history of the Italian boardgaming hobby, some designer’s notes on a Euro that seeks to escape from the ‘multiplayer solo’ that has become popular in recent years, indie boardgame recommendations, GoG moaning about the significant increase in game bloat over the last few years, and the editor delves into his own murky past in the world of hobby zinedom…
Plus a great new column from Italy, book reviews, puzzles, and another selection of boardgaming reviews, including Star Wars: Battle of Hoth, The Lord of the Rings: Fate of the Fellowship, Canopy: Evergreen, Gatsby, Wine Cellar, and Yokohama Duel.
You’ll find the link(s) to more recent issues will open as a webpage in most internet browsers, allowing you to flip, click, and hyperlink your way through the magazine (all 48+ pages of it) in a single handy browser window — we recommend using a desktop, laptop, or tablet to enjoy the magazine at its best, but it’ll work on most mobile browsers as well, so please do take the time out to explore…
You can still download the magazine as a free PDF if you’d prefer that format, using this link…
