New comic! Every now and then one of us pitches a comic idea and the other says, "...you really shouldn't say that." We're very relieved that nobody was seriously hurt during the tornado at Gen Con and we hope people had a wonderful time.❤️ #gencon #boardgames

Heinze rushes in and asks, "Did you hear that there was some tornado damage at GenCon?" Rachel looks surprised and asks, "What?" In the next panel, Heinze says, "Luckily, no one seems to be hurt, but imagine how much damage it could've done to board games and RPGs. All those designers, publishers and content creators could have been gone!" In the final panel, Rachel replies, "Which would mean we would finally have time to finish our backlog of games and videos, while the board game industry would rebuild itself?" Heinze, looking uncomfortable, replies, "I mean yes, but you shouldn't say that..." Rachel immediately jumps to an inappropriate "silver lining" before Heinze points out that it really shouldn't be said aloud.

”I’m bad at games.” We all are. That’s why games work at all.

This is going to be one of those "committing to the bit" jokes where we suddenly see a GenCon event running exactly this isn't it? 😆

Let's hope it still happens!

It seems that publishers can ask for their game to rightfully be taken down. “Aviary” / Wingspan has already been taken down. Please contact the proper publishers to request their games to be taken down. We’ll also need help identifying all of the games so the correct people can be informed.

Time to reintroduce myself to all the new faces here! Hi, I’m Kai, a comic artist behind Kinroku, a tabletop gaming comic series about a dice wizard. I'm also a board game designer making print-and-play games mainly for Kinroku fans and solo players.

We are going through the Queen's Dilemma right now and there are some very heavy topics to vote on as well. It seems the writers really want the Dilemma part to sting from time to time.

Now that is a tantalizing post right here

How big do board game designers think tables are? Have they seen tables?

I know it’s a rough time to be asking for money, and ignore this if you don’t have the means But the folks at Nibcard are doing amazing things for gaming against impossible odds.

The urge to sample this is big indeed!

New comic! This is obviously the most logical next step for the Wingspan series by @stonemaiergames.com.

📜 You can read this week's blog post at:

A comic featuring a crow and a blue, parakeet bird sitting at a table. The caption reads: “After every human on the planet owned a copy of Wingspan, Stonemaier Games tried a bold new approach to break into new markets...” The birds are playing a board game, its box is standing on the table, showing Heinze in the pose of DaVinci's famous visualisation of a man and the game is titled 'Attention Span'.
