Darn you @FoxfordComma. After listening to you talk about SpellSlingers on the @teamcovenant Power of 7 podcast, I thought “I’ll download it and take a quick look”. Hours pass. What have you done to me???😆

It’s been a while since I last played Marvel #dicemasters. I really miss this game. Trying out a set of solo rules. instagram.com/p/CWoeThDI-oR/…

“To me, my minions!” Using tactical blocking in a last ditch attempt to keep Pteradax save from Guardian X and Nova ESR. Did I mention I 🥰 #monsterpocalypse? instagram.com/p/CWZZMNSovPx/…
I finally caved and backed Monsterpocalypse Board Game. Granted, it’s one of my all-time favourites. 😊 kickstarter.com/projects/116…

It’s great meeting up in person with our favourite German demoers from before lockdown and those we got to know during our lockdown livestreams.
The demo team are getting to grips with fantasy capitalism before the show doors open tomorrow. #AdventureMart #Spiel2021 #SPIEL21

I’m really curious to hear about any publishers who have quirky games to show at #SPIEL21 this weekend. Anyone got recommendations?

Posing with two amazing people. This is why I want to skate. Not the posing…it’s an excuse to hang out with this lot. @ Carrickfergus Skate Park instagram.com/p/CSjreySDvxE/… – at Carrickfergus, Northern Ireland

Faraway Valley has been in the works for some time now with lots of returning to the drawing board. And tonight, @idlemichael and I can finally reveal it (well, the prototype at least)! See you over on twitch.tv/idlemichael at 8PM UK time.
What began with “What if Hub Games made a game with a focus on friendship and an Animal Crossing vibe?” has grown beautifully to become Faraway Valley. Join @idlemichael and @roryoconnor tonight at 8PM UK time on twitch.tv/idlemichael as they play it live for the first time.
