Our Journey to rule the Board
The inception of Rule the Board can be traced back to a simple yet profound love for gathering around a table and diving into the vast, imaginative worlds of board, dice, and card games.
The journey began when we started to share our game nights with family and friends. The good-hearted accounts of our game-play and strategies stirred up interest in our games. Over time, we became everyone’s source for what to play.
We are asked to bring a selection of games to gatherings with our extended family and friends, and the highlight of our get-togethers centered around the clatter of dice, the shuffling of cards, and the strategic planning of the next big move in a game. These game nights are more than just playing games; they are a way to connect, challenge one another, and share in the joy of discovery and competition. The added benefit—we are reconnecting and interacting in person.
Taking our reviews and recommendations online to a broader audience gives us more reason to try out new games, further driving our unwavering enthusiasm for tabletop gaming. We sincerely hope our experiences and insights can serve a broader community of gamers looking for recommendations, strategies, and a deeper understanding of the games that have brought them so much joy. The desire to craft a space where both seasoned and new players could explore a myriad of gaming options, and navigate them with confidence, led to the birth of the Rule the Board website.
At Rule the Board, our core philosophy centers around trust and transparency with our readers. Our endorsements of board, dice, and card games, as well as gaming accessories, stem from thorough testing and personal experience. Our recommendations are not swayed by potential advertising fees. We focus on quality and relevance to our audience, ensuring that the games and accessories we advocate for genuinely deserve your consideration.
