I just backed MonToons: Clash of the Coral Isles! As a highly interactive roll & write it actually delivers on intense, concentrated puzzle battles! I LOVE this game & if you like asymmetric characters, high conflict, or puzzles this will be a hit! kickstarter.com/projects/mnstr…


Now that everyone's back from summer camp, it's time to keep the fun going with Game Day! Digsaw @IndieBoardCards & Planecrafters @PaisleyBG

Please actually put this on your game boxes, publishers! This subgenre of hobby gaming has such a vibrant culture and comics like @semicoop help cultivate that!

New comic! This week is Semi Co-op's 9th anniversary and dear publishers, we have a wonderful idea to celebrate this milestone with us. 😉🥳

Hey friends, does anyone know any up-to-date board game industry lists of freelance developers? I'm doing some research for a presentation and have realized that the lists I know of are mostly artist/graphic designer, publisher, or manufacturer.


I would love to hear from others. I think @KindFortress blog, Gametek by @gengelstein, Ludology by @SenFoongLim & @EricaBouyouris, @DecisionSpa podcast all give deeper dives into design thru multiple lenses. Also, @BGDesignLab Game Design Pro is coming soon!

I just backed Waypoints by @postmark_games and I'm so excited to try out this much more free range RnW! Also, I love orienteering so this feels perfect for me when I'm not outside! kickstarter.com/projects/postm…


I just donated to Mark Suroviec, M.Ed. to spread the love of his children's book about adopted families called Forever Sisters! If you love adoption, consider buying one or donating one of this amazing book! @WorkPlaySol Ko-fi.com/home/coffeesho…

Way late to the party on this but I got to experience Nyctophobia by @playnyctophobia and it was wonderfully tense and horrific! I got to play the Vampire & a Hunted and they both were interesting and had their own discoverable strategies. Def will pull this one out again!

Honestly, record labels - give this guy an album
