Review: Robert Hovakimyan's Bombastic is a tiny release from Bitewing Games that is pitched as being a better tic-tac-toe, a comparison both true and misleading.

Moytura is the fourth title in Bitewing's Mythos Collection. As two clans race to control Ireland, they face pushback from the wild corners of the island, creating a world that's intriguing and desperate. My review: spacebiff.com/2025/09/24/m...

Real Moytura, Guys

I’ll confess it was a little surprising to unfurl Moytura’s board and see such a literal depiction of Ireland. After the suffocating hoplite melee of Iliad, the checkerboard Mount Olymp…

Just posted our review of Moytura & Azure, @bitewinggames.bsky.social’s two great new duelers by @djackthompson.bsky.social, @trevormbenjamin.bsky.social & Brett J Gilbert. I really like that these broaden the publisher’s line in some surprising ways.

Moytura is on kickstarter today!

I had a small part in this project, designing the game mat you play on. Moytura is a 2-player game of strategy and mythology, and totally worth checking out

Kickstarter: kck.st/4pBAtgD

Top down photo of a board game box on a play mat, surrounded by game tokens and cards. The box reads MOYTURA, and depicts a cyclops like, red eyed giant towering over a small band of silhouetted heroes.

shallow depth of field shot of a game board with tokens and cards. The design appears to be a map with multicoloured territories, with tokens and castles dotting the land. There is a blue ocean with a black dragon head poling out, and game cards along the left side.

This week we’re working on coverage for Azure & Moytura, two cool new games from @bitewinggames.bsky.social launching next week. Both proved fun in some surprising ways, catching me off guard with the accelerating rhythm with low overhead, and of course their usual fantastic production. #boardgames

Bombastic by @robhovak.bsky.social remakes (and de-solves) Tic Tac Toe by adding hidden information, push-your-luck gameplay, and a big old bomb. For what it is, this one is pretty much perfect. My review: spacebiff.com/2025/09/03/b...

Tick Tick Toe

If there’s anything that tickles the pleasure center of my brain, it’s seeing a designer put their own spin on a classic. Even better when that classic is soggier than bread that’…

It was an honour to help illustrate the game board for Moytura (by @bitewinggames.bsky.social)

They've got a cool dev diary on the design process, and you can see some of Harry Conway's incredible mythology illustrations as well
