Boardgames
Welcome to the Cultural Writer Board Game home page! Here, you'll find all the information about my cultural engagement with modern tabletop gaming, beginning with my new series of articles, ‘Replaying the Collection’ and ‘Board of Philosophy’. These series will provide you with a path through gaming if you're new to the hobby, and a new way of looking at things if you're already an experienced meeple. You’ll also find links to all my boardgame reviews for Zatu Games, a photo gallery of my recently played games and information on how to follow my boardgaming through social media.

Board of Philosophy
Board games require thought. In my series of articles 'Board of Philosophy' I explore how modern boardgames provide a space for philosophical thought. Avoiding analysis paralysis, I provide unique readings of tabletop games that draw upon the western philosophical tradition.

Tabletop gaming is a social activity, as the example of Sheffield shows. The Yokshire city is now not just the Steel City but also a Meeple City. Gaming opportunities and the number of possible venues for play have multiplied in the last few years, making it a great board game city.
