First full day off in ages. I put up some shelves, bought some fresh bread, and played a bunch of Anno 117. Pretty good.

We’re delighted that 52 Duels has been awarded ‘Project We Love’ status on Kickstarter. Not long now until the campaign launches, but in the meantime check out the project page for more info.

A great write up from George. I love Battle for Rokugan and I’m sad I can’t recommend it to more folks (it’s super out of print). Hopefully a new version comes one day and I can freely spread the love once more.
Fingers crossed. A new board would be great - the readability feels a bit dated compared to games now.

Played it recently and was reminded how much I enjoyed it. The bluff token in particular is one of my favourite elements of the game.

Best Bits – Battle for Rokugan: Bluff, Bluster and Bushido
In a game filled with gorgeous watercolour illustration and cards that cause seismic shifts in the board-state, how did the best bit turn out to be a small blank token?

I’m really surprised by how much I’m enjoying the theme of the Fellowship of the Ring Trick Taking game. No LoTR board game has made me want to engage with the source material more. No small feat for a trick taker.

I finally beat the first scenario of Resist! I love this game but it’s super hard. Down to my last three Maquis and Consuelo came up clutch.

Three minutes of me sketching and talking. Marketing is one of my least favourite things about self publishing, but it’s kind of fun going through process at this level.

Played my second game of Inis today and it rocked. Victory was close for all three players, and it was an absolute knife fight in a phone booth until the very end.
I played Inis for the first time last night, and now my head is swimming in the best kind of way. Loved the chaos energy, loved the vibe. Need to play more.

Very excited to share this with folks. If you like the idea of a duelling game like Magic or Flesh and Blood, but played with a standard poker deck, then I implore you to hit that get notified button.

We've just announced our latest Postmark Games release: 52 Duels!

I'm really happy how this came together; an extremely tense and fun duelling game, only needing a sheet and deck of standard playing cards for each player.

Follow on Kickstarter so you know when the project goes live in December!

Ai art sucks for many reasons but its ubiquitousness is the one that gets me. No art director worth their salt would ever specify a style that generic and un-ownable. Yeah, you might have saved some money, but you’ve also torpedoed your chance at being memorable.

I also sold a couple of preloved games, so I treated myself to these beauts.

Had a great day at HandyCon yesterday. Drinking 6 coffees was probably a bad idea, but I won half the games I played so maybe getting fizzy on caffeine isn’t all that bad. Games played:

Tonga Bonga
Everdell
Propolis
Cockroach Poker
Heat
Little Town

I forgot to take pictures 🤷‍♂️

I just rolled credits on Mafia 3 and, despite some frustration with the grind, I enjoyed it a lot. The linear vibe of the other Mafia games is more my jam but I wouldn’t say no to an evening with any of them.
I need someone to encourage me to play Mafia 3. I loved 1, 2 and OC but 3 feels overwhelming in comparison.
I’ve been struggling to get into something new since finishing Mafia Old Country, so tonight I fired up the explore mode, set the car controls to manual and just drove about. Turns out games don’t need endless collectibles when the vibes are that strong.
