My family and I are huge fans of tabletop games. We spend hours every week playing everything from kids card games to intense strategy games that take as long to set up as they do to play, and we regularly host games nights with friends that stretch into the small hours of the morning. I'm sure you can imagine my excitement when IDW Games announced that they would release an X-Files themed tabletop game and, later on, an expansion that added even more cases to the game. Two of my favorite things in the world were combining!
I have now spent lots of time playing the game, so read after the jump for my in-depth look at The X-Files board game.

Moxie might be in short supply these days, but the season finale of Better Call Saul gave us a heaping load of that and then some by shying away from the flash and bang that is the standard fodder of season finales, and instead diving deep into the flesh and bones of its characters.
Content to go at its own pace and not rely on it’s louder, older sibling, Breaking Bad, the entire team delivered a solid season that set Saul apart and cemented it as a brilliant show in its own right.
If I might be so bold… I think I prefer this highly nuanced show to its predecessor.
