Happy Friday y'all. I made a little film talking about the top 5 games that influenced me and Pondus's journey. If you like any of the games I talk about in the video, Pondus is likely to be up your alley. Can you guess the games based on the thumbnail? youtu.be/iZQEsQXOoGY

Next we got Leylines by @deepdark.games! You play as relic hunters trying to gather items to stop a rising threat. The absolutely sweet thing about this game is that it takes that premise and turns it into a very ingenious world building game using drawn leylines! deep-dark-games.itch.io/leylines

after listening to the friends at the table AP ive been semi-deliriously talking abt this game at every opportunity bc some of the genrey mechanical stuff is so clever i had moments of fully pausing the pod & standing perfectly still in my kitchen to excitedly think it thru so 🙂↕️🙂↕️🙂↕️
follow the kickstarter, which will be coming soon (tm). I'm hoping to finish all of the files, order a proof, and then get started preparing to run the campaign in October www.kickstarter.com/projects/ada...
The Quiet Year is one of the most influential games I've ever played, and every gamer should have a copy on their shelf. (Going for Broke and Dream Askew are great, too!)
Do you love any of the games that I have created? Whether it's Monsterhearts, Dream Askew, The Quiet Year, Going For Broke, or a deeper cut, now would be a great time to hit quote-tweet and tell your friends about it! It's been a slow month. 💕✨ store.buriedwithoutceremony.com

Table for Two's playthrough of Quy Serra Serra was a ton of fun, so I'm excited and/or frightened to hear why and how the mayor from that game has a doomsday bunker
