@myleskuah.bsky.social Loved hearing all the board game references in your deep dive. Now want to hear another one that's just about what you like playing! 😂 Not sure if you know Blood on the Clocktower, but did you see the RHAP playthroughs with past US players? So good. youtu.be/3mx9yxWvrDQ?...

Feedback: I asked game publishers how they plan to respond to newly announced U.S. tariffs, and here's a sampling of their responses: boardgamegeek.com/blog/1/blogp... That post features only 15 of more than a hundred responses, so I'll post another round-up tomorrow. —WEM

That sound you hear? The scream of hundreds of tabletop gaming companies as their business models collapse simultaneously.

@shannongaitz.bsky.social Listener question: I imagine it would be pretty easy for a juror in an exit interview to accidentally reveal something. Does ch10 vett all those before they go out? I'm guessing they must? Otherwise it's a high wire act for the contestant. Thanks for the interviews!

Enough is enough. If America wants to make our products more expensive, then we should take Bluey away from them. Read the full piece here: preview.mailerlite.io/emails/webvi...

One of our long time YouTube viewers joined us last week for a game of Bad Moon Rising. Welcome @qbxe.bsky.social to the crew! #bloodontheclocktower #botc youtu.be/PNnwaR2_KsE?... @the1ben.bsky.social

A little sneak peak from last week's #clocktower game, where it finally happened... youtube.com/shorts/salGV... #botc

Our most recent Blood on the Clocktower video is up featuring a bunch of new players and my favourite method of introducing people to new things: trial by fire. Also, Nelly's first time co-storytelling! Editing by @mjdart.bsky.social Art by @andrewbryson.bsky.social youtu.be/adDQCU6vH0o

@shannongaitz.bsky.social I know I'm days late at this point and you'll have heard this elsewhere, but I was amazed you didn't know the On Fire podcast has been freely available in Australia the whole time. They're pretty snappy and quite interesting. Worth going back for I'd say.

@mjdart.bsky.social and I have thrown everything in for a game of Galactic Cruise by @kinsonkeygames.bsky.social - that's including both the Accommodation and Advancements expansion. We decided it's a good time to share our thoughts and I lament some poor decisions. youtu.be/PUyIv1asfpE

We're back for another Blood on the Clocktower over at @the1ben.bsky.social's channel. This week feat. new guest, @laurenthemself.bsky.social! Mistakes were made. youtu.be/pmGbo42K7v8 #bloodontheclocktower #botc

New Unboxing - Clank Legacy 2 from @direwolfdigital.bsky.social. Join @mjdart.bsky.social and I as we prep peruse the contents (avoiding spoilers). We're starting the campaign this weekend with the same crew from the original - Hype! youtu.be/3RTUkpfGSkA

@shannongaitz.bsky.social There's no Talking Tribal? I loved it! (Sorry, just catching up with RHAP.)

Some photos from a busy weekend gaming. Galactic Cruise (with Accommodations and Attractions expansions), Finspan, Lure. Also Blood on the Clocktower and So Clover. Only disappointment was not getting time to fit in Things in Rings for a first play.

We played a small BotC game last week and you'd think it would be easier. No, it wasn't. @mjdart.bsky.social has switched things up this time by showing everything just from my perspective, so enjoy my foibles. Art, as always, is by @andrewbryson.bsky.social. youtu.be/VcBO3bXCxG0

@melissainau.bsky.social I was just listening to this and you just got a shoutout! (Question starts at approx. 32m)

@kinsonkeygames.bsky.social

Galactic Cruise from @kinsonkeygames.bsky.social came in this week. We'd played it a couple of times before on TTS but this was our first in person game. 3.5 hours for 2p, but I'm sure that will come down a lot. Need a big table though! @the1ben.bsky.social

New video is out! Discussing the topic of earning a living designing board games - why is it so difficult? youtu.be/wy9g2o5WqHU?...

@ludologypod.bsky.social On the most recent episode you joked about rules teachers playing as yellow. I hadn't heard that one before. And yet as someone who often teaches in our group, I play yellow. Do you know where that stereotype comes from?

We had a huge amount of fun playing Blood on the Clocktower in 2024. Here's a compilation video of our funniest and best moments so far. #bloodontheclocktower #botc youtu.be/yqmwXE8ac20?...
