Description
Hello everyone, welcome to the Board Gaming Doctor, my name is Phil, and I will be your board game doctor today.
I diagnose games based on strategic depth, and love going into what it takes to win a game. But if a game is purely fun that matters too.
I primarily enjoy medium to heavy Euro-style games, but all games are welcome on my table. In particular, I subspecialize in Uwe Rosenberg games, and often blog about them.
Thanks, and hope you schedule an appointment with your board game doctor real soon!
