At Geeky Hobbies, our goal is to review and curate everything fun that is out there. Whether it is a board or card game, TV show, movie, puzzle, video game, or a new hobby or interest; we are interested in reviewing and curating anything we can get our hands on. From small indie releases to blockbuster media, we try to cover it all as best as we can. If you would like us to cover your product or piece of entertainment, feel free to drop us an e-mail. Since we are interested in almost all genres, types of media, hobbies, and interests we will most likely be willing to cover your product but we still prefer you e-mail us to make sure it is a good fit for the blog. You can e-mail us at mort(at)geekyhobbies.com (make sure to change the (at) to an @ symbol). Also feel free to e-mail us any news, press releases, questions, comments, or anything else at the same address.
For reviews and previews, we will be as fair as possible but of course we cannot guarantee a positive review. We can, however, guarantee that the review or preview will be fair. In every review and preview we do, we make sure to talk about everything we like about the product as well as the things we didn’t like or think could be improved. We will always bring up the positives but if we don’t like the product we will have to be honest with our readers.
Special notes:
- For board, card, role-playing, outdoor, and other types of games: We accept almost all games regardless of whether they are print and play, prototypes, or final versions of the game. However, we prefer that you e-mail us when the game’s rules are mostly finalized and you have a semi-concrete release date (a Kickstarter date or a date when the game will be available for purchase). Basically, as long as the game is near completion (not in the testing stages) feel free to e-mail us whenever you like. Games that are complete (or near completion) will be reviewed while print and play, prototypes, and games that aren’t quite complete will be previewed (since it isn’t fair to give a final numerical grade to an unfinished product).
- For video games: We love all types of games from small indie games to big releases. Feel free to send codes for games you would like us to cover to mort(at)geekyhobbies.com. Just know that since there are hundreds of games released each week, we can’t get to all of them and thus can’t guarantee coverage (or when we might cover your game). However, if we like your game we will make sure to cover it in some way. We can cover games on the following platforms: PC, PS4, Wii U, PS3, Xbox 360, 3DS, Android, and most older platforms.
- For movies, documentaries, TV shows, anime, and other media: We accept DVDs, Blu-rays, 4K Ultra HD, screener copies (both physical and online screeners), as well as links to freely and legally available media (free documentaries and other media on YouTube, Vimeo, etc.).
- For puzzles, hobby stuff, collectibles, other types of entertainment, and anything else you think we might be interested in: Drop us an e-mail to see if your product is a good fit for the blog. We are always willing to try new things and will probably be interested in trying out your product.

In the Taco vs Burrito game do you only put food cards in your taco? So if the Health Inspector is played you don’t have to dump all your cards?

You can put food, Tummy Ache, and Hot Sauce Boss cards in tacos. The rest of the cards are not added to tacos. When you draw the Health Inspector card you have to play it immediately. When you play it you have to discard all of the cards from your taco. You don't have to get rid of cards still in your hand.

In the game of qwixx when a person rolls snake eyes which ends the game can the other player still take a two in another line just for an extra point or is the game over as soon as the snake eyes closes that second line?

If the snake eyes (two ones) are rolled on the white dice, all of the players are able to use the dice if they want to. Timing doesn't matter with the white dice. While one player might end up using the two quicker than the other players to lock one of the colors, everyone's choice on what to do with the white dice are considered simultaneous even if they aren't done at the same time. Therefore the other player(s) is allowed to use the two in another line.
If the two was created with one of the colored dice, the current player is the only one that can use the two so the other player(s) wouldn't be able to use it.

In Skyjo Action the Star cards do not have a fixed number. You can change their number at anytime during the game.

In the game "GUESS IN 10" WHO benefits from the "Facts" section on each card? The person (or team) who sees the card? Or the opponent who is trying to guess in 10? And how so? Evidently the "Facts" are not used as clues because "Clues" has its own category. It seems to me that it might be of help to the person holding the card to answer some of the questions posed to him/her. Just information, right? In all the informative videos of how to play this game, the "Facts" section is not mentioned.

I believe you are right about the section. The rules don't specifically mention the section. I believe the Facts section of the card is used by the player looking at the card and answering the questions asked by the other players. I think it is a guide to help the player with answering questions. For example in the Guess in 10 Animal Planet each card says whether the animal is a herbivore, carnivore, or a omnivore. If the other person would ask if the animal eats meat and the player holding the card doesn't know, they can reference this section to get the answer to the question. I believe this is all that the Fact section is used for. It is basically a reference section to help when answering questions.
