Pentaquark: Preview
If you haven’t read it, you should first pick up Brian Greene’s The Elegant Universe before you continue reading this review. I’d suggest the Kindle version so you can get it right now. I’ll wait. Done? Cool, you’ll need it. Today, Fairway previews Pentaquark, a frustratingly fun solitaire game from designer Mike Mullins and part of Buttonshy’s ever-expanding wallet game series. In this preview, Fairway explores the smallest things in the known universe in search of the pentaquark. CERN, look out! The Kickstarter launches this week!

Matryoshka (pronunciation may be found here on Wikipedia) from White Goblin Games is a very beautiful game that takes the wonderful art of Russian nesting dolls to create a fun and easy to play, yet strategic card game with mechanics of set collecting and trading. Matryoshka is a 3-5 player game, and plays for about 20-30 minutes.
Goblins Drool, Fairies Rule: Review Rewind
With a young daughter and son, a game about fairies and goblins is always welcome in the Fairway household. It should come as no surprise then that Game-O-Gami’s Goblins Drool, Fairies Rule is a huge hit. This week, Fairway picks the game up again and writes the review that should have been written years ago.
