In my free time, I’m into #BoardGames, #VideoGames on #Xbox, and reading #NonFiction #books. Books help me discover new ideas, while games help me think through decision spaces and problem solving.

Thanks for stopping by! Learn more about me through my pinned introduction post below.

The iOS implementation of Carcassonne by CodingMonkeys, carefully preserved, is still brilliant for a quick F2F with zero setup.

@DiegoBeghin Becca and I just learned to play this game over BGA this month, and I really like it especially when I’m feeling feisty! I really would like to play it physically soon. :)

@Chicken0Death hey Michael, so good to chat with you in a while! I was traveling last weekend to see family and it was the only game that was small enough and quick enough that I could justify bringing with me, so it saw a few plays that way. I still am very much in the beginner phase of understanding it, but it’s an elegant game!

Wingspan Asia is nice! It’s a bit less of a experience compared to the original. playing this standalone, but it would make a nice portable 2 player version for us.

Hey #boardgames Mastodon and friends! I’m so sorry I’ve been largely in lurker status the past few weeks. It’s been a bit busier on the home and work front. Largely all good things, thankfully. That said, had to join in on the customary monthly summary, courtesy of the great @BGStatsApp!

I've been sitting on a game that's practically done for almost 6 months cause I need art for it. Does anyone know any cover art illustrators open for commission so I can get this finished?
