We sold out of most of the puzzles we brought to PAXU. One of the first to go was this gem. It's a 500 piece Cobble Hill puzzle called "Dungeon Run".

A marvellous lane battler style game from @cheatwellgames.bsky.social @outsetgames.bsky.social
Reminds me of classics such as Schotten Totten but with new twists. Well worth a look!

There is often a #cobblehill puzzle on the go in the reading room at my dad's assisted living residence. But this image was a bit of a surprise.

Definition of a super fan.
Met this guy on Day 2 at PAXU. He loved 5 Minute Dungeon so much... he got himself a tattoo of his favourite character from the game.
THAT is the definition of a super fantastic.

One of my favourite stories from Day 2 at PAXU. On Day 1, the orange cat token from Shadow Ninjas disappeared. It was a mystery. This afternoon, someone came by our booth and brought by the missing token. He had accidentally slipped it into his pocket after a game demo. Welcome home orange ninja.

If playing regular sized Karak isn't quite fun enough for you... you can play our giant demo edition custom made for cons. It's the "novelty clown feet sized" version of Karak. Pax Unplugged booth #4219.

I really really really enjoyed this review of #Guildlands from Liege of Games. Very thoughtful analysis.
What made this video even better - the other game reviewed was Dirt & Dust from our good friends over at Albi.

Found out today that the word "parkade" is just a Canadian term. It's what we call a parking garage. I know there are lots of Canadianisms (like "double double") but was surprised about "parkade".
Any other Canadian terms you've been surprised to learn are just used in Canada?

OH NO.. THIS IS NOT GOOD.
We were booked at Sonder Hotel for PAXU. Sounds like the hotel defaulted on payments to Marriot, and the hotel shut down.
We had 9 rooms booked - for a total of 39 nights. Now what the heck are we supposed to do?!? Marriot is not helping.
This is going to be expensive.
