Game: [Clash of Cultures] Quick, Everyone Gank Isabella
System: Board Game
Format: PBP
Players: 4
Description: If you like light, easy-to-pick-up civilization board games - or even if you just like Civ 5 - then you'll probably like Clash of Cultures. While most of the rules are relatively simple, the tech-tree has some neat tricks to find and abuse in your quest to become the best Civ around, be it through expansion, science, or war.

System: Board Game
Players: 6
Format: PBP
Description: Because I haven't run it in some time, here's another game of FFG's improved version of Arkham Horror.

Come shoot Elder Things in the face and go quietly mad in Australia.

Game: [Clash of Cultures + Civilization] THANKS HAMMURABI
System: Board Game
Format: PBP
Players: 4

Civ 6 has Board Game Mode? Yeah, well, I've got an actual board game. Clash of Cultures is a reasonably light, (relatively) easy to pick up game that apes the Civ style, from Golden Ages and little happy faces to running your country's unique elephants over another guy's poor infantry.

Game: [Mansions of Madness 2e] Old One Folks Home
System: Cooperative Board Game
Format: PBP (with offscreen app)
Players: 4
Description: Mansions of Madness 2e is a smaller-scale version of the Arkham and Eldritch Horror games, focusing on a specific story - like investigating Innsmouth, or rooting through an old mansion trying to figure out how the bad guy is planning to open a portal to horrible creatures. It's significantly simpler to learn than the other games, with a lot of the administration handed off to an accompanying app. With that tracking monsters and events for you, it leaves room for some twists and tricks that aren't possible otherwise, and the tighter scale means things feel a bit more coherent than similar games.

This is a bit of an experiment to see how well working off an app goes.

The first thread was a 'shorter' and less involved adventure - this is a significantly harder and larger one.
