Publishers. I played a really fun game about rats in a maze in unpub at Origins. I think it's ready with some development focusing on the decision space. It just isn't the right space for me, but let me help you publish it.

The IDF raided the renowned Jenin cultural institution @freedom_theatre while children looked on "screaming and crying." Staff were seized, detained and tortured, while the theater was trashed and robbed. Artistic director Ahmed Tobasi describes the ordeal.

I am really proud of this game and I owe that to so many faces I am seeing this weekend at PaxU. I have some options for publishing, but I want to make sure it lands right, so if you've played and have a good idea for a home, or are a curious publisher, please reach out!

I don't do much on social media, even tho I often wish I did, to stay connected w/ all the board game folks I've met. Fact is, I'm just an IRL kid in a digital grid, and you know I'll be at PaxU with my whole analog self, ready to throw down some meeps with you peeps

If anyone has another spare invite after that spare, i'd love one as well!

But also, big emphasis on "spare" because women and BIPOC need codes more.

what a day- I went to a funeral, plugged a tire, learned about dauphins in traffic, harvested 39 quarts of sungold tomatoes, ate a BLT with avocado on rye bread that my friend baked and a cherokee green tomato my partner grew, and then played a quantum trick taking game - AMA

If you're unfamiliar, screentop games work in your web browser with a link, and we can talk over discord or zoom while playing.

overwhelmed by the groundswell of goodwill and support from so many folks at Origins helping me brainstorm how to get my weirdo game made. Loved being in the same room with you all, couldn't possibly get to all the games or convos I wanted to, but lordy it was full and good ✨❤️

ICYMI - I'll be at Origins if you want to play - would love your feedback!

Rotating the tile changes not only your direction of travel, but your distance as well, as you don't stop moving until you reach a circular Landing Space. On the way, you can mark any territories you pass through with markings from your G.I. Tract. Here, you mark a purple pipe!

If you want to play LAB RAT at Origins Game Fair next weekend, please hit me up! Does this seem like your kind of game, lmk? Also, if you are a publisher looking for "heads up" medium-weight games w/ low rules overhead and strong themes - I'd love to chat! #boardgames #origins

Digesting cheese refills your G.I. tract and grants you powerful bonus actions in your brain. But be careful, no ordinary cheddar, it's been laced with drugs... if you push your luck, and eat too quickly, there could be side effects!

Are there any trick taking games where the tricks are thematically magic tricks or pranks - there has to be right?

Always bowled over by the generosity of the game design community - case in point- @StoicHamster! See you soon!
🎲 A Designer's Map of Origins 🎲 I wished this existed. So I made it. This is a map of your best pitch opportunities at Origins. I can't promise these publishers are accepting pitches right now, but AFAIK, they are either open to it or have done it in the past.

Which board game publishers are doing the best job of producing historical-themed mid-weight strategy games that are not about war, geopolitics, or colonialism?
