I like how the mechanics help the players better impersonate the "bad guys" by having them constantly backstab each other while managing the same company. The final outcome is given by a simple ranking by score. Because of this, I am wondering what's preventing a player from having the company go bankrupt as soon as they get a slight edge. Is it the fear of ruining the whole game for everybody? Is it the Company Failure deck being super-random? I would test this myself, but I would need to be in the lead first lol<br><br></span><a href="https://wehrlegig.com/collections/main-items/products/john-company-second-edition" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://wehrlegig.com/collections/main-items/products/john-company-second-edition</a></p>

Tabletop Games Blog<p>Working by candlelight, we carefully stepped between endless shelves of books, books whose vivid imagination and terrible thoughts had become real and had entered our world. There were giant kraken, the frightful Fenrir and other monsters, as well as infamous characters, such as Count Dracula or Grendel’s Mother, prowling in the shadows. However, luckily, wonderful women, such as Marie Curie, Anne of Green Gables and even Red Riding Hood, had also come to life. With the help of these powerful heroines, we could finally catch those creatures that were Loose in the Library by Mill Goble and Jessica Metheringham from <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@dissent_digital" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>dissent_digital</span></a></span> with art by Samantha Grieve and Jessica Metheringham.</p><p>Read the full review or listen to the audio version here: <a href="https://tabletopgamesblog.com/2025/09/06/loose-in-the-library-saturday-review/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">tabletopgamesblog.com/2025/09/</span><span class="invisible">06/loose-in-the-library-saturday-review/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://tabletop.social/tags/boardgames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>boardgames</span></a> <a href="https://tabletop.social/tags/CardGames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CardGames</span></a> <a href="https://tabletop.social/tags/WomenInBoardGames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WomenInBoardGames</span></a> <a href="https://tabletop.social/tags/FamilyGames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FamilyGames</span></a></p>

I played a chunk of the solo A Place For All My Books today (had to go get P3).

I had the rival deck set to minimum difficulty and still found her kinda frustrating. I’d like to see how the main game plays, which would probably help me optimize my play better to deal with her. #BoardGames
