Ashwin & Rob have created a great frenetic game with dice chucking and grabbing! This one is definitely worth checking out.

I'm feeling so good about my lil trick taker/shedder that I've decided to pitch it at #PAXU!

Oar Deal is a game about going on a canoeing trip and trying your best to not fall out of the canoe. It plays 3-5 players in about 25 mins with just 54 cards.

DMs open to anyone interested!

A digital rendering of Oar Deal. Four colorful cards surround three piles arranged in a central area.

We played Cascadia Landmarks at lunch. Lunch gaming is such a nice reprieve.
