Explorers of Navoria is pretty and spills out such regular rewards that it's easy to overlook how few calories those rewards contain. A breezy and enjoyable game, but not an especially interesting one. My review: spacebiff.com/2026/01/06/e...
Movin’ Up an’ Down Again
For all that board games thrive on taking us to new places, exploration is surprisingly hard to do well. Explorers of Navoria, designed by Meng Chunlin, is a prime example. Set in a colorful world …

Board game publishers Stonemaier, CMYK and Eurydice Games on how they’re utilising – and paying to include – fan designs in their releases:

boardgamewire.com/index.php/20...

Thanks to @stonemaiergames.com @jacksonpope.bsky.social and @cmyk.games for taking part!
Six strange creatures represented on wooden blocks. Including a worried-looking yellow banana with a tiny black hat, a yellow anteater in a pink and black striped shirt riding a unicycle, and a blue rabbit whose legs are moving so fast they are a circular blur. They are on a multicoloured board made up of different coloured squares, with the whole image on a yellow background. Magical Athlete board game by Richard Garfield, published by CMYK Games. Two cards from the board game Wingspan, both featuring an image of a bird, and text explaining the card's in-game rules. Central to those is a packet of cards titled Wingspan Fan-Designed Bird Cards - specifically the British Birds set. They are placed on a dark brown wooden table. Wingspan cards from Stonemaier Games. A hand prepares to flick a black die with white spots. The die is sitting on the grey plastic cutout of a futuristic space ship, with a smaller ship cutout also visible in the bottom right. The cutouts are on a blue, start-filled galaxy-style mat. FlickFleet from Eurydice Games.

Today I played a fun match of A Gest of Robin Hood against my lovely wife. It is such a great game by @fredserval.bsky.social and @gmtgames.bsky.social.
Soon you'll find an article about the GMT Irregular Conflict Series on my Blog armoredpawn.com.

I gently squeezed the trigger today on Chad Jensen's Combat Commander. #LateToTheParty. The 20th Anniversary Edition seemed like a good excuse to finally add this one to my collection. @gmtgames.bsky.social

Now I'm just waiting for it to arrive in Canada.

And we've now hit 1,000 backers!

Thanks all for the interest in roleplaying history!

(The first character I ever made was an elf, written out on the green character sheets for Basic D&D.)

Who's up thinking about that first character they ever made?

First Impressions of Master of Command

Master of Command is an odd pup
You need to walk into this game with this basic knowledge: This is a combination Roguelite & RTS Wargame hybrid
If you are not seeing colors & have a headache with that statement, then proceed

*earnest response warning* ⚠️

There have been multiple close-calls in my life that nearly made my game design career untenable for too long.

It takes so long to start to get properly paid on a consistent enough basis.

I still struggle, but with my first of many releases out—that will soon change.

why did i decide to spend my life writing novels, novels are hard to write and don't pay shit

i should have pursued something easier and more lucrative
something respectable, like designing board games
