If this game lets me ghost hack my opponents into thinking they scored VP while not scoring a thing, I'm on board. 😈
Just got to announce another incredible tabletop project. This year is going to be one heck of a ride.

Hey tabletop gamers, if you bought or were considering buying this bundle but got overwhelmed by the number of games to sort through, have I got the spreadsheet for you!!

All 1,074 games tagged as "physical" sorted by play style, with language, engine, and genre notated to the best of my ability:

Valentine's Day in our house took a dark turn when one of us manipulated the price of wood in the (until then) peaceful city of Kutná Hora... 😬

This incredible video by @amabel.bsky.social has only been watched 5000 times which is a shame!

Not only is it a wonderful look into the game/toy industry that Amabel did a lot of research for, @nopunincluded.com also did a voice over that made me laugh very loudly.

The University of Maastricht has a very cool AI project (Ludii) that tries to apply historical game rules on found "board games" by playing simulated games on it.

They even published proposed rules for a game based on their latest find HOWEVER

Thanks to AI, we can play a Roman game again
For years a Roman stone found in Heerlen has kept people guessing: was it a game board or not?

Looking forward to Re;Match, the game seems like a perfect blend between a very cool production and a fun duelling game that strikes a good balance between giving you options but not making it too complex.
Re;MATCH - The Puzzle Fighter Board Game is simply DRIPPING with theme.

From arcade buttons as your health dials, to clearing multiple marbles in a chain like pressing the same button repeatedly to enter a combo, you'll feel like you're in an arcade slinging quarters again

I remember hearing interview about this game and thinking this would be a small low production affair. This looks incredible! 😳
Just a little teaser from Night Witches.

Inception 2 is going to be nerdy! 🔥
Dreamed up a video of Shut Up and Sit Downs Matt Lees about a game called "Relay". And since they make excellent videos, I can now just design that game, since all aspects were covered in detail.
