Bgstats for August 2025

Wow this month has flown by.

I’m hoping September flies by as well because at the end of it, maybe a day or two into October Diogo should be joining the little monsters. Plus I’m also on holiday at the same time.

But I know September will drag on especially as it gets closer to arrival and the excitement levels ramp up.

However today you are here to see what I played in August. And you know I hate to disappoint.

So here are the “infographics” summing up my August gaming.

Obviously I owe you a long post talking about the games I’ve played recently and that’ll be in a day or two.

Bgstats for February 2025

February for one reason or the other was a bad month for me gaming wise.

It was nearly going into first lockdown numbers.

Being honest I did miss it. I enjoy gaming. Especially the social aspect. I like gaming with my friends.

Here’s hoping March is much better.

Here are the less than impressive stats for the month.

November 2024 numbers

It’s that time once again to share my gaming stats as recorded in the fantastic Bgstats app.

I think the big take away is how much I (and the others I played it with) like Strike!

You know the format of these posts they always start with the pretty eye candy of the 3×3.

Then we close the post off with the stats insights for those interested.

Bgstats for October 2024

Autumn is well and truly upon us. The clocks have gone back, and the English fascination with the weather and the many ways to describe rain kicks into high gear.

October was an ok month for gaming.

Two of the new games I tried during the month ended up with copies in my collection. In fact a third has just been ordered after looking at the 3×3 below. I decided to google if it was possible to get a copy, and before I know it I’m getting a Korean/English version off eBay!

I played Phoenix New Horizon (PHN) last Friday on the clubs get it to the table night. But decided not to say anything at the time. I had a good time playing it. However at the end I was left feeling a bit meh! It was fine.

It’s a worker placement game with a paper thin theme. PHN is meant to have a post apocalyptic theme. For this the theme could really be anything. I felt it didn’t come through.

The action select had a new twist with its upgrading the worker mechanic that also saw more powerful actions becoming available.

The game just didn’t knock my socks off.

Anyway enough waffling. Here’s the raw stats for October.
