Benny Sperling - Roll and Write Revolution

That’s amazing! Y’all are killing it!

That’s an amazing name!

How did that go? I saw on social media y’all were selling at the market

#CraftWednesday I made some progress on the Cathedral game this weekend. It’s been a busy week. Go Faster launched and funded, so that was good. Mainly trying to get over being sick! Wife and son and I have been sick since before Thanksgiving

It's #CraftWednesday! Do you have a game-related crafting project in progress? It could be a prototype, print and play, upgrading the components of a favourite game, making an accessory or even something larger like a table or games room. Share a picture and join in! Please RP!

A single red balloon floats against a gray background. Below it, a dense crowd of small black creatures with downcast, sad-looking eyes stand closely packed together. A single creature in the crowd on the right looks up at the balloon with an expression of hope. Art by Debbie Ridpath Ohi.

Title of this piece: "Hope."

As I recently told @smacquignon.bsky.social (thx for the reminder, Stephen), I've been obsessed with red balloons since watching Albert Lamorisse's 1956 film, The Red Balloon, when I was a kid.

Apparently there is an expansion with 4 new boards and different maps coming out some time. This board isn’t in the expansion and neither is the Dolphin token

I think so, it’s been an interesting exploration into game design. Trying to avoid doing all of my tricks, you know?

#CraftWednesday Still working on the cathedral game. It feels closer to done. I like the card play and decisions for taking cards. I think it will surprise players because it’s not a flip and fill mechanism. I wanted it to feel more of a classic game. We’ll see how it shakes out

Bread first,viticulture second, Everdell last

Keep the pies and dump the rest!

Do you have the promo board? It’s fun too adds a little wrinkle

Write. You have an entire universe between your ears

Writing fiction is good for the soul.

I don’t think I have. Rod has all of them, we’ve talked about them, so it was definitely fresh eyes on my part. Though I read the books

#CraftWednesday Working on a roll and write style Cathedral building game with standard deck of cards instead of dice and the cards are drafted. Face cards trigger scoring and bonus points. My friend is a huge fan of the Pillars of the Earth series so I suggested we should make a roll and write

Kingdom of Atlantis Chess moves take the stage in this game of action selection and writing for 1-4 players. Control the oceans!

Kingdom of Atlantis on Kickstarter, please share. It’s a zero luck roll and write game, uses dice placement (you choose values) and chess moves to gain control of spaces. I hope you all get a chance to play it, there really isn’t anything else like it #BoardGames www.kickstarter.com/projects/ben...

Those are the best kind of labors!
