Been playing a lot of Fall Festival, the new, small expansion to @keymastergames.bsky.social’s excellent Harvest. It’s a great, subtle addition to the game that ends up bigger in impact than expected. It doesn’t change up the nature of the game, but certainly leans in sharply. #boardgames

When springtime comes to Japan, people flock to parks and gardens, bring their picnic lunches, and vie for the best spots to view the sakura blossoms.

It’s a tradition called hanami, and it’s the newest Keymaster game coming to Kickstarter soon! 🌸

Hi there! Our team is working on plans to bring this to our web store later this year, but we don't have any specifics on the timeline we can share yet. We'll share more details in our newsletter once we're closer to that date!

I've decided to just go for an all duel game week, and today's review is for Caper Europe by @keymastergames.bsky.social. In this two-player game you play spy and gear cards to complete the most exciting heists in each of three unique locations. I enjoy the tactics and art, especially!

Harvest Is a Bounty of Board Game Fun The board game Harvest has been reissued in a bigger and better version, with the right amount of fun and challenge for all ages.

Harvest is an overhaul of an out-of-print game, brought back last year by @keymastergames.bsky.social, with better mechanics, a much better board, and a great take on the common theme of farming games. my review for @pastemagazine.bsky.social: bit.ly/3F7FZoi

Thanks all. We will NEVER use AI art in any of our games and never want any AI art used in any of our marketing. We support all the human artists who pour so much of their talent into our games and we had this image taken down as soon as we saw it.

Thanks so much for this, @marcelineleiman.bsky.social. This was a miss from one of our partners and we had it pulled as soon as we saw it. Sorry that it got out and it will not happen again.

Parks 2nd Edition Review & Giveaway
YouTube video by The Cardboard Herald Parks 2nd Edition Review & Giveaway

Nobody makes board game videos quite like @cardboardherald.bsky.social and we'd be all over this one even if it weren't about Parks Second Edition. Even if it didn't include a giveaway! But it is and it is and it is gorgeous.

Well, we here! Early morning, it felt appropriate to go on a lil' hike through national parks as I got to share a first look at the newest Parks edition coming from @keymastergames.bsky.social .

I'd say #gamaexpo is off to a great start.

Parks 2nd Edition from @keymastergames.bsky.social over breakfast.

A great way to start #GAMAExpo day two.

This new version of the game includes the best of the best of the best of the expansions, improved components, new art and streamlined rules.

We both loved it!

A few plays of @keymastergames.bsky.social’s PARKS 2nd edition and I gotta admit, I’m impressed. I was a bit skeptical, but it’s a considerable update, tweaking various odds and ends while preserving the fundamentals. The look is also more cohesive and vibrant, though that’s a matter of taste.

A board game setup of β€œTrails” by Keymaster Games is displayed on a table. The game’s box, featuring an illustration of hikers in a forest, is visible in the background. The game components, including landscape cards with nature-inspired artwork, wooden player pieces (meeples), and resource cubes, are laid out. Two meeples, one white and one green, are placed on a trail card.

Sunday is perfect for a nature hikeβ€”whether outdoors or at the table. Like any hike in #Trails, today was a success, but I fell just short of the #BirdTrophy, losing by a single point. Next time, victory will be mine! #KeymasterGames #BoardGames πŸ—»πŸŽ² @keymastergames.bsky.social

Harvest by @keymastergames.bsky.social was great! Finally got around to playing it and we ended up playing 2x in a row, and 1x again the next day. Coincidentally, anyone who played Rose was the winner in the end πŸͺ΅ πŸͺ“ πŸ¦β€β¬›
