Oh I read this graph as the number of things objectively right and wrong with a game as I iterate more. And I wholeheartedly agreed with it.

Reviewers: if something doesn't seem right about a game, please take a moment to re-read the rules or even reach out to the publisher or designer for clarification before publishing a review. That extra step can save heartache and damaged reputation on both sides.
Dark Providence twice this week. It's my new favorite game in a LONG while
Fun characters for Totally Human!

π²βοΈ Anyone think it's possible to have played so many games that it negatively affects your game design? I think I've reached the point where it's become very difficult to create something new/raw/innovative, because I have such a large bank of stuff to accidentally steal from.
Rising Sun. It was essentially my gateway game (or at least the first game I played that made me want to dig deeper into this hobby and you were probably the first designer I recognized by name!)
I love Lost Atlas! The map building setup round is so dang cool.
Meet you in the middle. All Tom B.s
When Tom's right he's right
Oh wow this awesome!!! I love Devils Plan

One of the best trick takers in recent years
π¨NEW GAME ALERT!π
Kasper Lapp, the creator of Magic Maze, That's Not a Hat, and Fun Facts has concocted another hoot β Totally Human. A hilarious game of probing questions and dubious answers.
Woohoo! So happy to see this out in the world, finally :)
Oooh, I love Gold Country. Spectaculum was always good, but Gold Country makes it excellent (in my humble opinion). Curious to hear your thoughts!
I played 3 games of Railways of the Lost Atlas, 2 games of Wir Sin Das Volk, and 1 game of Twilight Struggle.

@matthewdunstan.bsky.social Playing Monumental Duel for the first time. It's really great (and I don't usually like deck builders)! One question if you don't mind: Does activating with this card also give you the resources on the buildings?
