Last watched : "One battle after another" - 2025
A fast-paced action movie with a social subtext on migration policy and racism in the USA.
The last act is the weakest but raised by a very beautiful car chase.
Fun, well played (except Sean Penn overplaying), don’t miss it !

"Ciceron" is finally out.
- Send your servants through Rome to gain the favor of the Senators and place your family as the most powerful in the empire. -
I had a very good time working on this one, particularly the board and the rulebook.

Je me suis arrêté au premier épisode.
Dès la première scène, tout était trop surligné visuellement ET renforcé par un design sonore des plus lourdaud. Le placement produit Disney 'Peter Pan', pas très fin lui non plus, a été le pompon.
Dommage, il y avait quelques plans chouettes.

et se retrouvent avec un jeu qui ne leur convient finalement pas.

Ou des joueurs qui ont très vite cédé à la hype ?

Non, non. Nous sommes au moins deux. :)
Je lis tes posts mais n'interagis pas. Ceci dit j'ai l'impression que seule la politique fait réagir la communauté, mais c'est peut-être lié à mon fil.

WOW. Merci pour la découverte.
Gros coup de coeur pour "Remember where you are".

Vraiment ?!?

Last work🔥🔥🔥 : Just received my production copy of Ciceron published by SweetGames. It was a long journey, rather solitary but always joyful. Quite proud of the final quality. :)

Call it "Ming".
Just finished to customize my white Jackson guitar. Still missing a coat of varnish to fully complete the porcelain render.

Chouette idée cependant.

Nico Roblin @nicoroblin.bsky.social · Aug 18

Nope. 🙂

Last watched : The Last Stop in Yuma County.
Crime thriller in a remote desert gas station.
Well constructed and entertaining. Sadly the characters are rather bland. The cast is uneven, but Richard Brake is doing well.
Watch "Identity" or "Bad Times at the El Royale" instead.

Have you read our #EuroWarGames anthology @nutspublishing.bsky.social? I'd be glad to know how you liked it, what stood out for you, what you might be looking for in a second volume?

Selon la pythie Googlia il s'agirait simplement d'une mauvaise fermeture la porte.

Je relance de 2 jeux qui tournent bien à 2 et plus (au grée des rencontres) sans texte :
Qwixx (jeu de dé)
La Habana (construction de bâtiments + opportunisme)
Voilà. Bon voyage !

L'incontournable "Schotten Totten" si vous aimez la confrontation. En deux mots : Jeu de majorité à base de combinaisons de poker.

Against all expectations Corsica is not the final destination of the game... 🤫🤫

Great cast and great script.
