It's up on BGG. :) Thank you to my friends for helping me when I don't know what the hell I'm doing.

Happy to release my first game of 2026: Fries 🍟
In this 3-4 player climbing-shedding game, your goal is to shed out first, or be the last player who still has cards. As you might expect of me, this is a standard deck game.

In order to be a "true board game designer," you don't need to be formally published, win awards, or speak at conventions.

You just need to design board games.

And if you design board games, you need to know what your goals are. Be it "make a game my friends and I enjoy playing" or "win SdJ."

LODGE LAUNCH DAY!

I started this game over 5 years ago, and I'm so excited to bring it to you all on Kickstarter today. It's been a wonderful journey working with @pickpocket.games and Leslie Herman to create the coziest lodges we could.

Thank you to everyone who's been following along!

I played Cambio tonight with my wife and kid, using these rules: cambiocardgame.com

This is Golf with powers, which I understand is close to Cabo. All I know is that it feels like I’m playing Nana/Trio, but with more screwing around with your opponents. It’s a really fun little number!
