Acquired attire at #gencon2025 — can you figure out which booth we bought the green shirt in?
(Sweatshirt by Rabble Games)
Obligatory #gencon2025 haul photo. A little lighter than previous years’ due to @chrispyha.bsky.social being cheap and wanting one fewer suitcase for lower airline fees. 💸
Many of these games were provided by publishers — we’ll disclose them on any follow-up coverage on goinganalogshow.com!
Designer Alex Cutler stealth took a picture of us playing his (co-designed) A Place For All My Books from the 2nd floor of our Gen Con hotel.
It was one of our faves! More coverage on our time at the show coming soon on goinganalogshow.com

Storms = canceled flights = multiple flight changes = unplanned overnight stay in Dallas = still waiting to get home.
We’ll be very pleasantly surprised if our checked-in luggage (with most our board games from Gen Con) make it home with us.

We’re going to head inland in the morning to be safe — to Indianapolis for Gen Con.
It’s awesome having the space for two gaming tables. We can host more friends at once — or just the first two games our group of three will be playing tomorrow, as pictured here! #boardgames

New podcast episode! @cardboardeast.bsky.social joins us to talk about how Asian-designed games differ from Western-designed one (and how they differ between Asian countries).
Plus: great new games for those awkwardly sized groups of 5-6 players.

All the games in Reiner Knizia/ @bitewinggames.bsky.social’s new sci-fi trilogy are just great. They each have a distinct personality and are lots of fun. They’ve been in steady rotation for us (11 of the last 15 days!).
Very happy we took a chance and went all-in on deluxe versions.
Let's Go! To France is the next "Let's Go" game!
We did this fun photo feature showing our (real-life) trip to Japan using Let's Go! To Japan cards. We see a trip to France in our near future.... www.goinganalogshow.com/article/264/...

Got to see stand-up comedy with a full live-audience game of Green Team Wins running throughout. Fun times thanks to @grantsgamerecs.bsky.social jumbling his two worlds together.
