Looking forward to seeing folks at Gen Con soon. Can’t wait to catch up with friends, pitch some games, and enjoy that most perfect cuisine of the great state of Indiana: the pork tenderloin sandwich.
So the MCG team has not one but TWO big-box euros in development. Super excited about what we have coming.
It is a super cool system with the interplay of the banners that change with every card played. Super clever!
A protester at a No Kings rally just hours before her wedding later that day.
This was my favorite sign from the local No Kings protest near me. Her name was Anna and she got married just three hours after the protest. But she wouldn’t miss it for anything.
I like this newest flag.
I'm attending a No Kings's protest in Troy, Michigan on June 14. If you are in the area, come join me. If you are not in the area, find one near you. www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...
Ezra & Nehemiah from @garphillgames.bsky.social is a fantastic heavy euro. Lots to take in, but so many great choices. Loved it!
Ezra and Nehemiah from @garphillgames.bsky.social needs a few more things going on… it’s too simple to grok. lol. Great game, but man oh man, is my head spinning.
Apiary by Connie Vogelmann from @stonemaiergames.com is a winner! So very good. And tons of variability.
Happy Pride Month!
I’m making it official: shrimp and grits is my all time favorite food.
My design vibe primarily consists of the real-time transition of joy and pride into anger and sulking and then finally into useful energy as another self-declared “epiphany” or “breakthrough” turns to dog turd on the table.
Iteration drives everything. #failfaster
This would be a nice thing to do. I’m in favor of this.
I like this one a lot. It makes me laugh that the central palace stairs area is “do this or you cannot win.” But I still love the card play for taking actions.
@peters.senate.gov Why are you complicit with every vote that allows the Right to continue piling on working people? Why are you betraying the folks in Michigan who voted for you because we didn’t want the MAGA candidates?
@mattriddlegames.bsky.social This is you.
When the MCG team does game design, it is a heady mix of unadulterated genius, raw sex appeal, and sweet sweet mathematics. It is dangerously psychosensual.
Galactic Cruise is a very fun heavy euro. It is also very procedural, but that is one kind of fun that I tend to enjoy. Lots to explore, but I really enjoy it.
Game design night with the MCG crew. I like where this follow up to River Valley Glassworks is headed.
Insomnia: “Oh hey, Daniel. I’m good. Just out here ruining people’s lives for no real discernible reason. Actually came back to hang with you… sorry.”
Sorry to hear it, man.
SETI is a really, really good heavy euro. Dare I say, GREAT!
Interpol.
Glad you liked it!
Looking forward to hearing about how you like it.
Yes, any tile means any tile.
You can play the matching pair on the tile with the matching shape should you desire to do so.

4) Live from the deepest part of yourself.
3) My value and worth is not directly tied to my accomplishments and productivity. But don’t be afraid to try and do awesome things this year.
2) Self-care and health improvement often involves discipline more than it involves “treating”myself.” But don’t let healthy discipline turn into unhealthy guilt. Discipline is not meant to be punishment.
