In the final triple review of the year, I'm covering three trick-takers that go above and beyond: casino-heister Venusian Vegas, snitty restaurant manager Beastro, and social parable The Hedgehog's Dilemma. Read 'em here: spacebiff.com/2025/12/16/v...
Beastro is a hidden roles and trick-taking game, where you play as mythical beast chefs competing to win a reality TV competition. The game is beautifully illustrated by @corachacha.bsky.social
If you are curious, there are still some copies for sale at: www.hellomountain.games/
