Too Many Games!

So, I think one of my addictions is collecting board games. Don’t get me wrong… I love board games. The art, the mechanics, the flow… they are awesome. However, they take up way too much space, and  I have way to many. With that, it is time to get rid of games. So where do…

On the Crab v8 in development

So I got great feedback from a blind playtest. However, the feedback brought into questions one of my core mechanics, the crab bags. I think I have found a work around that would still have a crab bag and yet address the mechanics and randomness issue. However, I always feel that I cannot over-tinker something.…

OTC v5 or 6

Playtested a complete game finally with my wife. Not bad. Some minor issues to fix. Although I would be curious how it goes again. Hoping to try again later this week.

BK:LHD v3 in the works

Well, during a Conflict Resolution class I was taking, I had an epiphany on how BZ:LHD should work. I jotted down the ideas for digestion later on. The last time we played BK:LHD, it was seriously lacking flavor. I think a few more additions and subtractions, like live animals, would make the game comical. Stay…

OtC v4.1

So even though the playtest of OtC was not complete, I took the feedback from the small exposure to even further tighten the game. I am really feeling good about this version (not that I did not feel that way in the previous versions). Hopefully, I can have this puppy ready for another personal playtest…

Playtest of OtC v4

Well big thanks goes to Lynn, Adeel, and Meredith for playing 6 rounds of OtC v4 with me. I think we are much closer with this version to a finish than any of the others. Great feedback that unfortunately will force me to reprint. Can’t wait to try it once more to the end to…

On the Crab (v4)

Well, On the Crab has gone through a complete re-write based on feedback received. The game is much more streamlined. I am hoping to play test the changes this week.

6 page contest

I will be attempting to partake in BGGs 6 page PnP game design contest. My hopes is to have something together this weekend for play-testing. Once I solidify the plan, I will share it here and request a BGG presence.
