Dr Craig DalȝellI had some fun yesterday introducing another couple of friends to my wee card game Heart Under Blade.

bonthronFor several weeks I've been developing a game for a 9 card print-and-play contest. I thought 9 cards was a pretty restrictive design challenge. I've since discovered there's a 1 card contest. 1 card !

Jonathan Arnold 🇺🇦I have been enjoying Folklore the Affliction <a href="https://indieweb.social/tags/BoardGame" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BoardGame</a>. Greenbrier Games went out of business due to a Kickstarter screwup, which is a shame because they were a local game producer. But it is fun and tells a good story. I wish I could get the Dark Tales expansion. I got the base game and Fall of the Spire expansion very cheaply. I don’t need another expansion, but there you go. At least I got the updated anniversary edition. <a href="https://indieweb.social/tags/BoardGames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BoardGames</a>.

Less savvy players won't likely appreciate 4 Nemesis turns in a row...And, despite difficulty being at around <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/sentinelsofearthprime" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sentinelsofearthprime</a> , it feels more... fair...

Aliaksandr, the last DzikОдна из самых тухлых настолок, в которую мне довелось поиграть, - "Убить Доктора Счастливчика". По ощущениям как если бы в "Манчкине" все подряд могли кидать +5 по разу каждый бой. Каждый ход весь стол кооперируется против одного игрока - и победит он или нет на этом ходу, решает чистая шара. И половине стола ВСЕГДА невыгодно что-то делать, отчего начинается агрессивная дипломатия :( <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/boardgame" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#boardgame</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/killdrlucky" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#killdrlucky</a>

Dionysus 🍇I feel that any company running a <a href="https://dice.camp/tags/TTRPG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TTRPG</a> or <a href="https://dice.camp/tags/BoardGame" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BoardGame</a> crowdfunding campaign this year is really asking a lot from their fans and customers. There are a few I would easily support any other year, but the lack of economic stability and the threat of insane tariffs is really make me pause. ☹️

LadyMarth01Looks like Greater Than Games—publisher of the board games Spirit Island, Sentinels of the Multiverse, and Compile—has been shuttered due to the tariff situation. While I've not played Compile, Spirit Island and Sentinels are the two games I play the most, so knowing that no further expansions will happen sucks.<a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/BoardGame" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BoardGame</a> <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/BoardGames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BoardGames</a> <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/SpiritIsland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SpiritIsland</a> <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/SentinelsOfTheMultiverse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SentinelsOfTheMultiverse</a>
