The hype around this one is so great. I can’t wait to try it out. I’ve been planning to do a best dinosaur games video for a while, but will be holding off until we can play this

My nerve pains continue & I’m exhausted beyond belief, but I did get two incredible pieces of news this morning so the scales are sort of balancing

Board Game Animal @boardgameanimal.bsky.social · 20h

I’m so impatient

Im sitting on the biggest announcement in Board Game Animal history

And it hurts so bad to hold it in

Ooof that’s terrible

Board Game Animal @boardgameanimal.bsky.social · 1d

That sucks.

And I feel ya, I’m still waiting on a prescription being covered for an issue I’ve been having since February.
And then on top of that, we may be losing our coverage this month regardless

Hey there! I'm a freelance illustrator from Berlin making artworks for playful things like board games, video games, key arts, conventions, zines and whatever comes my way ✌️🌈

It was a rough review to do because Im a *huge* fan of the designer & developer and of your artwork, but the way it came together didn’t click for me from a game perspective. However I see where it could have it’s audience

I do specify how badly I’d like a plush of this fella

Board Game Animal @boardgameanimal.bsky.social · 1d

We just reviewed Merchants of Andromeda; and while the implementation of gameplay + graphics wasn’t for me, the artwork is INCREDIBLE. I would watch a series based on @turbotorbo.bsky.social’s personality filled characters & world. Super charming stuff.

Hey..... wanna see some cards? 👀🧵

Super intrigued by this. Solo trick taking is a feat, design wise. I can’t wait to check this out

Board Game Animal @boardgameanimal.bsky.social · 2d

I guess it’s a good coincidence that we talked about it

I like the sealed idea. Might have to try that.

Board Game Animal @boardgameanimal.bsky.social · 2d

Okay I need a serious magic refresher

It’s been a while and I have retained nothing lol

Board Game Animal @boardgameanimal.bsky.social · 2d

A bit stressed and exhausted with life stuff so made a small impulse purchase (2 pack limit at target lol). I’d love to play the Spidey set but don’t want to buy a ton of boosters.
I think there’s like a starter deck or something? Gotta check it out.

There is accidentally a tease for a future video in the background of an image in tonight’s video

If anyone spots it, they’ll win a virtual cookie

Board Game Animal @boardgameanimal.bsky.social · 2d

That’s fair. But tbh I keep a couple games in my collection that rarely *ever* get touched because they complete a set of games and look nice together 😅
