Trying my friend's newest kickstarter #boardgame, Positano from Slugfest Games, with three players tonight. Designed by Jeff Grisenthwaite, Art by Beth Trott. Also shown is the 5/6 player expansion, which includes a four-player variant. #BoardGames #TabletopGames

Looks like @elizhargrave.bsky.social's next game design is another winner! Can't wait to see more to come about Sanibel and other games she's working on.

Ended the game night with The Gardens of the Alhambra from Queen Games. Love this variation of #Alhambra. It's great to find new to me games that aren't always the newest or hottest game on the market. #BoardGames #TableTopGames

Terraforming Mars is quickly becoming my "let's bring it to the table as much as possible" game pick lately. However, it's one of those games i can only enjoy it if i okay with certain people. What do you think of this game? #TerraformingMars #BoardGames #TableTopGames

Our colleagues in the Vox Media Union have put together a Go Fund Me. Please, if you've enjoyed what we do... If I've ever helped you in some way... If you've ever loved something more because of what we've written... Please give what you can. The next few weeks and months are going to be hard.

Do you use a scoring calculator or save you tabletop stats? We offer a free app that does both for all Stonemaier games (and it syncs to BG Stats). Check out Stonemaier Scores on iOS and Android!

I think some readers come across BoardGameWire and think it must be a relatively big operation, backed by a larger company. For clarity - it's not! It's just me, Mike, fitting in interviewing, researching and writing hundreds of articles each year around a day job and taking care of my two kids! 1/2

What's your favorite #TCG universe? I just use universe loosely to pick a term to help differentiate between the options and instead of saying TCG game repetitively.

Our official statement and a mini-rant by me on tariffs. TLDR: I'm not happy and you should probably get your orders in for our games soon before prices rise or we run out of stock.

I spoke with nearly two dozen creatives and publishers in the tabletop industry today. It's bad. It's real bad.

Glad the effects of the new tarrifs on goods from China on the board game industry is being featured in the mainstream media. Good stuff @stonemaiergames.com
