As a designer you have to be explicit when explaining the facets of your design; because we don't share your perspective, concerns, or live in your head WITH you.
All things considered, even before Health and Stamina, Stars are the first Resource/Consumable you're managing.

New review:
Psychobabble from Outset Media Games
This is a social deduction game for people who don't like most social deduction games. No one knows who the outsider is including the outsider and you are never forced to lie to your friends.
Plus it has awesome art and a Cthulhu Mythos theme.

New review: Shobu from Smirk & Dagger
This is a two-player abstract strategy game that feels like it's been around for decades if not centuries. It feels both refreshingly new and familiar at the same time.

While at the comic fair, we also bought this #boardgame from the artist that had a table there.
It seems to be a fun little filler game.
OK, I'll Discourse™:
Y'all know weiqi [Go] and Western chess are just sitting right there staring at you every time you assume complexity is needed for depth, right?

Progress comes in many forms. Here I've started stratifying what I want you to know/decide/roll-for by the time you're out the other side of the Prologue.
It's in the lists of things, like Talents, Boons, Flaws, that I'll both get mired down, and will help me show more flavor.

It's both and art, and a VERY early prototype of this rpg I've been noodling on for some time (2020).
Now in it's 4th iteration, this jerk would be out of place, but compatible with "Dabo".

Fridays in The Studio are always dedicated to Fun, Fantasy, and Group Hallucination. Today we're building out more of our "Roll" Playing zine/game.
Dabo.
If you wanna be in on influencing the development, I've got a discord for that and the other things we do in-studio.

I've never seen this before: Spirit Island victory via complete eradication of the invaders. Had some very auspicious events and fear cards that snowballed in our favor. Playing against Sweden Level 1, so naturally will be ramping up difficulty, but was still surprised by this. #boardgame #boardgames #tabletopgames #coop #spiritisland

Does anybody else remember this little cheap zombie game in the 90s/00s that had basic uncoated cardstock chits? Had a cluster of little expansions. Simple printing. Low price point. So much fun!
BUT I CAN'T REMEMBER THE NAME! Help me out.
