Final days to go and we’re so close to our next Stretch Goal!
Over the weekend, Anand Boardgame Club in Gujarat played Tadoba, Sinauli, and Muziris in full PNP format — with laughs, competition, and even a last-round 1-point upset in Sinauli!

Got to play Wroth and Tycoon: India 1981 with Adam tonight. Wroth is interesting and quick but didn’t work great at 2. Tycoon: India 1981 is a great economic euro and I’m excited to play it again.

🧡At IBGDC, the decision to base our games around Tadoba, Sinauli, and Muziris comes from a deeply personal place. These regions are close to the hometowns of our core team members—Deepak from Kerala, Amit from Maharashtra, and Neha from Uttar Pradesh.

@boardgamehottakes.bsky.social Tycoon: India 1981. Economic entanglement with some very combo-y action selection amidst the backdrop of the Indian industrial revolution.
