Wrapped Echoes of the Eye, at once a more mysterious and mystical experience. Its archaeological form of storytelling and culture is endlessly fascinating but unfortunately some of the ambiguity creeps into the gameplay, relying more on execution than knowledge in ways that were deeply frustrating.

Me watching any classic media that's been parodied by the Simpsons.
i understand why when people go back and watch/play formative and influential works, they are underwhelmed because they've seen it copied so many times. idk how exactly but i am able to evade this by role-playing in my brain as someone who hasn't seen it yet. it works for me

It's been increasingly hard to seperate my cynicism with the state from crowdfunding from sheer exhaustion, but boy am I tired. I talk about Mausitter month on tomorrow's podcast and there are some great ideas in there but it requires a whole lot of either homework or blind faith to navigate.
Themed crowdfunding months provide creative ways to bring together associated tabletop creators and raise consistent money.
But as the trend spreads, the calendar is beginning to feel mighty crowded.

Ok I've not played a Fluxx game in over a decade but this sounds like a legitimately great twist on both that system and word games.
It's not just a sandwich... it's a great example of a Three Letter Acronym that can win you a game of Word Fluxx. If you have the Keepers B, L, and T in play while the Goal is Three Letter Acronym, you've won! Who knew the card game of ever-changing rules was this delicious?

Finished reading through Mausritter and it's a delightful balance of fantasy exploration, fae wyrdness and the epic physicality of Honey I Shrunk the Kids. I'm not sure that my kid is quite old enough for my to GM it yet, but I'll likely try generating my own hexcrawl setting as practice.

WOW. I’m so impressed by all of the vendors organization and skill.
I’m sure we’ll be able together get stats from the PAX team, but this year definitely felt way bigger 🧵 🎲✂️

I've been on a word game tear and especially enjoying the ways Illiterati leads you pulling apart words to repurpose letters. What's your favorite word game? What am I missing?
In the latest episode Daniel spells out his thoughts on a selection of tabletop word games and the different approaches to letter alchemy. Any others we need to check out?

If you never watched Odd Taxi you really should. Only 13 episodes, surprisingly complex and entertaining. There's a radio drama and a movie, too!
How The Master of Suspense, Alfred Hitchcock, Influenced "Odd Taxi": Fritz Kurz explores Odd Taxi, and the series' filmic and thematic ties to the works of Alfred Hitchcock, such as North By Northwest, and the way it draws from them to create a work that stands among the greats of the neo-noir genre
How The Master of Suspense, Alfred Hitchcock, Influenced Odd Taxi
While his potential influences range from Martin Scorsese to Samuel Fuller, and from Dashiell Hammett to Raymond Chandler, one influence that increasingly stands out is that of the Master of Suspense himself, Alfred Hitchcock.
