Thinking of new ways to improve The Graveyard Shift by addidnt come more player choice, into ita sequel(s) while keeping it in a rules light fashion is tricky.
I understand why so many 18 seem to have so many mechanics.
Finding a balance between simple, player involvement but not all luck is tricky

I had such a fun time at #PAXUnplugged! Got to playtest a few games, partake in #MTG, and got some great ideas for new #boardgames! I also got to stop by/speak with some of my favorite indie board and #cardgame vendors! Can't wait for next year, hopefully I'll bring some friends along.

I would say mechanics is the next cause of choosing a game.
Theme, art and replayability are all great selling points too but if it's a choice between a deck-building vs an I-pick-you-choose that's what will make it a hard choice in my book.

Thank you!
It's a simple, #horror themed, 18-card #solitaire #dungeoncrawl style game that fits in your pocket!
Roll the die to determine your encounters outcome & use oil from your lantern to change the roll/your fate. Keep all 3 lives❀️ or succumb to the monstersπŸ§› in the graveyard!

A new prototype is here! I decided to scrap the previous edition & go for a Hook Box with Poker sized cards instead.
I had to redraw/design everything, but I prefer the new edition of the game. I still have much to do but #birdsonawire should be available soon!

My next #boardgame prototype has arrived!
I love the colors but realize small mint tin cards may not be best.
I'm going to go back and redo all the art for poker cards, delaying its release, but I believe it's for the best!

My #GraveyardShift #boardgame prototype came in!
Thankfully prototypes are done b/c, it may look ok in a photo, the ink is too dark (the shovel can barely be seen irl on the tin bottom).
I have to go back and re-color everything but cant wait to release it soon! #boardgamedev
