I’m not talking about a new expansion or an anniversary edition with upgraded components – though that happens. I’m talking about a complete reworking of the same game…

When this happens, some gamers grouse that now they have to buy their favorite game again. That it’s just a ploy for the company to make more money and for fans to buy the same content.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]

But before we get into all of that, I want to go over the golden rule of playtesting your designs: Do not get defensive about feedback. Ever. Playtesters are donating their time to help your design. If they have negative feedback that feedback is about your design, not you. It can be difficult to separate your feelings for your creative work from your feelings about yourself. But know that you are not your design and your self worth and value are not defined by the designs you put in front of playtesters.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]

Some of you knew it was inevitable; some of you hoped it would happen; some of you were glad it wasn’t going to. It’s happening though, I am so sure of it that I am previewing cards from it.

Adventures has a ton of cards, so I am previewing three a day. Each day but today the cards will fit a theme, showing off a different functional aspect of the set – Reserve, Duration, Events, tokens.

Preview 1, 2, 3, 4, 5[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]

Are you sick of hearing me talk about Fields of Arle yet? Tough! I’m participating in @piquergaming‘s solo challenge and we just completed the first round. There’s some excellent analysis of play data so far with much more planned for the coming week. My favorite game so far was one where I focused on animals to see how many I could get. After several iterations I ended with 57 animals on my very crowded farm.

#100Rolls Update – I’ve foolishly taken on the challenge of playing Roll For The Galaxy 100 times in 2015, it’s going pretty well. This week I played one game with my parents who are in town visiting. Hopefully we’ll get some more games in while they’re here. Looks like I’m well on pace to make it before the end of the year. Even if things do slow down there’s the potential to get an expansion in Q4 to pick up the slack. It’ll get here this year, right? RIGHT?!??! Current total: 36/100[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
