Another hugely productive Monday ‘off’ work. 18k steps, playtested a new game idea, made 3 Gal4Xeon reels, worked on the Gal4Xeon Gamefound page, canvassed exhibitors for our new convention and did a heap of household chores. Knackered now!
Thanks Dan!
A tall Monsterra
It’s almost as tall as me!

M cheese plant finally has holes!
The Patchwork board game box cover
Won Patchwork with the highest score I’ve ever recorded (in 34 plays!) 44-18
Love Rebirth and Flip 7! I’ve not played Through the Desert in _years_ - I hope you enjoy it Daniel!
Same!
Both girls had overlapping parties to go to today, so The Wife and I had 3.5 hours alone! Went for a lovely meal on the beach followed by a walk up the coast. I’ve done 18k steps today!

King Edward’s Bay beach at Tynemouth, UK, on a glorious sunny day. A pair of shoes in the foreground as I’m lying on the beach.
We could live somewhere that wasn’t a 20 minute Metro ride from the beach, but that would be pretty crap.
They were a Christmas present from Paul, the other half of @eurydicegames.bsky.social 😍
I didn’t realise it’s out of print. I’ve got a physical base game (with DnDeeples and metal coins!), but no expansions. Sometimes play with Skullport on the iPad app.
Essentially a worker placement game where you turn cubes into points by completing quests, but it’s really fun and I’ve played over 100 times!
The Lords of Waterdeep board game box cover
Great Games Night. Won Lords of Waterdeep, and then utterly crushed at SCOUT.
Get well soon - rest up!
For World Book Day today, I have dressed as the author of my PhD thesis. Remarkable likeness, except I’m 25 years older than him and have significantly less hair.
It’s awesome! Currently trying second attempt on LaGuardia on BGA 😀
Hope it goes well (and I’ve switched it over).
Sounds like fun- glad you’re enjoying it!
Nice! I was round a friend’s house on the weekend and they had an old school arcade machine!
