UK Games Expo 2025 (Saturday Review)

The first time I covered this massive board game event was back
in 2018. It was well-established at the Birmingham NEC by then,
sprawling across halls 1, 2, 3 and 3A. During the COVID pandemic
in 2021 and 2022, I skipped the show, but since 2023, I have
attended again every year. So, technically speaking, this is my
6th UK Games Expo.
