Ooof that’s terrible

Board Game Animal @boardgameanimal.bsky.social · 7h

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

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 · 1d

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 · 1d

Okay I need a serious magic refresher

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

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

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 · 1d

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 😅

2025 has had some absolutely stellar games so far, but I just realized there’s 4 of our “most anticipated games” we haven’t had the chance to play yet

Have you had an opportunity to try any of these? What did you think?
