Theology of Games is a multimedia site filled with original content about the happenings in the tabletop gaming industry. We talk games via written reviews, podcasts, and video!
If Theology of Games was a child, our parents would be discussing the virtues of sending us to kindergarten in the fall, or waiting a year to let us mature a bit more.
That's because today we're celebrating five years of bringing you news, reviews, and interviews!

oddball Aeronauts 2: Double the Trouble - Maverick Muse Games
This expansion of the original oddball Aeronauts brings two new factions into this battle of dirigibles. oddball Aeronauts 2 acts not only as an expansion, but as a stand alone version of the base game. The biggest, newest feature of the expansion is that you can now play 3 and 4 player games in two new variations of the game -both are pretty fun. We'll be reviewing this title momentarily and you can read our preview of the original game here.

Loonacy is a fast-paced, matching, party-ish game from those loonatics over at Looney Labs. You know the ones I'm talking about--the folks who brought us Fluxx, Fluxx the Board Game, and a bunch of other wacky games they claim you can teach in one sentence. So what's so loony about Loonacy? Can you teach the game in one, single, solitary, individual sentence? Only one way to find out...
Read MoreDungeon Dice successfully kickstarted last year as an adventure game played entirely with dice, players face baddies, find treasure, you know, epic hero type stuff. Well potluck games is back with an expansion to the Kickstarter hit, with Dungeon Dice: GUILDS and apparently you all can't get enough! The meager funding goal has been smashed through with 28 days left in the campaign and there have already been a TON of stretch goals unlocked with a good amount left to achieve -and there's no reason to think that they won't be unlocked. This campaign is worth checking out simply for the witty video, BUT you should check out the game too. If you already have the base game the expansion is pretty reasonable, if you don't have the original you can bundle it up with the expansion and some cool Kickstarter exclusives as well!

12 Realms: Ancestors Legacy
A little over a year ago Mage Company successfully ran a campaign for 12 Realms a fantasy co-op board game with some sweet miniatures that is based in the, well... 12 Realms. Players quest along their merry way using classic fairy tale characters in order to overthrow some sort of baddies etc. Ancestor's Legacy is the next step in that quest, it comes with a whole bunch of bits, minis, cards and tokens. The components and artwork shown on the campaign is all top notch! If you love fantasy miniatures games, this is one you won't want to miss!
Read MoreToday we scoop up a serving of moldy atomic buffalo wings globbed with peanut butter, and take aim at "What the Food?", a take-that, throw-down, school-cafeteria-style food-fight game for 2-8 players! (Too many hyphens!)
Should you serve this up on your table? Or leave in on the shelf to rot? Will we keep making terrible food-based word plays? Only one way to find out...
Read MoreIf you didn't know by now, today is International TableTop Day, an international holiday created by TableTop host and geek ambassador Wil Wheaton. Folks are encouraged to share a game with friends, family and maybe a complete stranger or two along the way, in an effort to promote the hobby and the social interaction that seems to be missing in this digital world. We're sure most of you are busy playing and not reading blog posts today, but we thought we'd ask you what you're playing today? Also, we thought it would be helpful to point out that: in order to help celebrate the day, Amazon has put some great classics on sale at huge discounts. You can find them all by clicking this link, right here!
