Do you think that randomised products are inherently problematic?
Would you agree with this 2001 article?

If you speak the language of the Netherlands and are interested in 'Last Bug Standing in the Circle of Doom', check out this review!
"It should be no surprise that this game is a bit different to other games you may have previously played, given it was designed by the wonderful Bez Shahriari."

A great article from Ellie Dix about getting the most from a boardgame playtest.
(And thanks for the wee shout-out, @EllieDixTweets!)
This is one of my favourite photos.
Pure joy, partially facilitated by me.
I mean, sure it's about the other people around the table. About the ambiance. Having suitable clothes for the temperature. But the game does make a difference imo. :-p
It's so rare for me to get a picture taken of me playing games, and at a work thing recently my boss took this picture of me playing @stuffByBez's Yogi. This is pretty much my face when playing most board games, which leads me to conclude I'm in the right hobby!
ICYMI:
I like this comic.
Honestly, sometimes it's just cool to know a comic artist (occasionally) engages with one of your other passions.

To me, this evokes memories of the Moomins. Relatively simple art leaves spaces for our imagination to fill in the gaps.
But aesthetically, these colours are LUSH.
And I also love how the colours are used to draw our eye to the centre of the frame.
I need to hold onto these reminders that I have managed to indirectly spark joy and facilitate fun.
That makes me feel proud and super-validated. :-)
Had an absolutely silly & fun time with Yogi by @stuffByBez. You draw a card, follow the instructions (usually related to a pose you must maintain), and keep going round and round adding more instructions to follow until everyone breaks except one. Thanks for the fun game Bez!
Would you pay a negligible amount of money to play something I made?
Unoriginal rules.
New content.
Pushed to the limit for a special friend who knows the silliness I'm capable of and trusted me to make something cool.
4-9 players?
To be played over a multi-hour dinner event.
"Last Bug Standing in the Circle of Doom! is a great 2-player abstract strategy game that’ll keep you coming back for more."
"It’s a really delicious challenge that tickles parts of my brain that other games certainly don’t."

I love this. Not just the execution of the illustration (lovely colours/lines) but also I think I intrinsically love the concepts where we are shown a relatable humanoid with a very different perspective (e.g. very small).
Riding a bicycle. Distraction. Wire suddently around my wheel. Cart in the middle of the road. Ouch.
Got stitches.
Will be OK soon.
A visceral reminder to be careful and to probably pull over if I'm ever distracted again.

Your mission, if you choose to accept it, is to acquire water in a vessel. Anywhere from 500ml (1-pint-ish) to 1.5l.
Then, drink all the water within the next 24 hrs.
Not every accomplishment worth doing is super-challenging.
