Some Current Favorites
Here are some ofmy current favorite games
Ark Nova
What can I say. This game deserves its reputation for a great game.
The White Castle
A truly elegant and streamlined game that is reward and slightly too fast every time.
Unmatched
This is my favorite game for graphic design.
Everdell
Not my favorite game, but the art by Andrew Bosley shoots it into the stratosphere.
Dune Imperium
Eurogames and wonderful in all their beautiful forms.
Dueling Games
I play most games with my wife and kids. So duels are an easy way to grab a quick game and go.
Harmonies
Wheel Throwing
Tactical Wargames
Battles can be so fun. Dune War for Arrakis does not disappoint.
River Valley Glassworks
I taught this game 20 times at Gencon 2024 and it never got old. A great alternative or replacement for Azul.
Lincoln Hoppe
I am a working Film and Television actor based in Los Angeles, CA.
My original social media channels @LincolnHoppe have seen billions of VIEWS, hundreds of millions of LIKES, and buttloads of SHARES.
My Board Game Mission
My mission to share my love of Board Games with the world.
I have 2 target audiences:
1. To people who already love Board Games
2. To people who don’t yet know they love Board Games.
For most Games, we focus on getting the word out to people who already love Board Games. It’s focused, targeted, and effective.
But some Games ALSO need to be shared with a larger audience. This all depends on your needs.
Either way, I can help.

My Loves

When elements work together in harmony, its spectactular!

What i avoid
Young Kids Games
If it’s not recommended for teens and up, I’m not that interested. My youngest child (of 5) is now 16 years old, which means I don’t have young kids to play with anymore.
Very Long Games
If it’s under 3 hours, I’m in. If your game typically lasts over 3 hours, it’s much harder for me to want to play and recommend. There are exceptions, but as a general rule, I prefer games 2-3 hours and under. Campaign games are great, just as long as each session is under 3 hours.
Games with Poor Art
I’m very easily charmed by good Art and Graphic Design in games. So I’m also naturally biased against bad, cheap, or uninspiring Art. It is understood that PROTOTYPE ART may be temporary, and is not a problem.
Mean People
Sorry. I’m human. I don’t enjoy working with mean people. Life is too short.
Mean Reviews
I prefer to find the POSITIVE in your game. Even if there’s an element of your game I don’t enjoy which I feel needs to be pointed out, I’m not mean about it.
Games that Don't Interest Me
If I’m not interested in the theme, mechanics, or any part of your game on first glance, I’d prefer to not review it. This helps me keep things positive. However, my first impressions upon seeing a game are not always right! So I’m happy to discuss.
