My first attempt at making a box. The graphic is a little off center, but it'll work for Origins Unpub!

Any of my friends going to Origins free on Thursday at 10 am. I need a few more folks to fill a slot of The Establishment so it can go off. tabletop.events/conventions/...

HBG Day has a really cool space you can rent if you want a private spot for your group. With 6 people, it'd be like $40 split. www.hbgalliance.org/store/p/over...

If anyone likes solo resource management board games, I have a game that I am currently playtesting called Community Cats. It's very early in development, so I know there's a lot of balancing I have to fix. But it's available online and there's a feedback form: screentop.gg/@mandabean/C...
15.04.2025 01:05 β π 1 π 1 π¬ 0 π 1So I bought a used Blu-ray player. I'm excited to hit up the library tomorrow and see what series I can find. Looking to cancel some of our streaming services, so testing this out.
