Still going strong in our game of @mousehole.press’s KORIKO: A MAGICAL YEAR.

Also excited to see what my @nyugamecenter.bsky.social students think of it this semester!

Solitaire Storytelling: Koriko: A Magical Year part 2 Check out part 1 of this Solitaire Storytelling here. After more writing and more adventures, I’ve concluded my playthrough of Koriko: A Magical Year. The story I created, of Lapis, a witch-in-training who thinks she’s boring, ends up telling a pretty fascinating coming-of-age story. Lapis discovers how much bigger the world is than her village, how much deeper magic is than what her grandmother taught her, and how weird, wonderful, and sometimes terrible other people can be.

He is, and I absolutely love how incongruous he is with the whole of the rest of the very normal marble run.

Thanks Clayton! I really should’ve spent more time on the Bucket layout, it’s basically just a quick export of the layout I did for the beak zine (this is why there are two files!). Glad you found some stuff to like anyway ☺️

Exploring Bucket of Bolts We lift the hood on ritual mechanics and product design in this week's design delve.

This week at Explorers Design, I'm delving into a game I've been meaning to write about for a while: Bucket of Bolts by Mousehole Press.

I'm going to try and do more design delves in the coming months in addition to the usual theory/educational content.

Only now putting the pieces together—you came to my stand at Dragonmeet and were very nice about my games (and I was very nice about your jumper). I've listened to your podcast for ages, and was gutted that I was too busy to attend your talk! Had no idea. Anyway, loved your Guardian article! 🙂

I have a big article out today about being diagnosed as autistic while I was writing my latest book, & how tabletop games help me navigate the world as an autistic person. I hope it's interesting to some people.

That's ok! The most common type of deck is the 'Rider Waite' tarot, which has all the right cards you'll need for the game. You can get them very cheaply everywhere (just search 'rider waite tarot') or shop around for a nicer set.

Hey Dan! Do you mean you’d like me to recommend a tarot deck for use with the game? It’s quite a personal decision and there are no wrong answers, but I love the Green Glyphs deck prismavisions.com/en-gb/collec...

I feel like nothing can prepare you for the moment, though, when you accidentally send 500+ incorrect labels to print and have no idea how to stop it spitting them out.
