Still too clunky and slow, but a whole bunch of stuff to simplify, and some great feedback on how to move forward.
Finally had my first game of Ark Nova at GOBfest here in #yeg. An excellent game for those who like medium to heavy Euros. A friend was correct when they said there were many paths to winning, which allows you the opportunity to pivot if the cards in hand were betraying your original strategy. I don’t have the kind of gaming group to bring it to the table but I’ll be quick to recommend it to those who enjoy a 3-hour strategy session. #boardgames

As the long, dark winter looms, bears gather along the river, drawn by the promise of a feast. They fight for the best fishing spots, where leaping salmon offer a chance at survival. The strongest dominate the prime locations, while others perfect their own hunting techniques. Each catch is a battle, each meal a lifeline. Only those who have feasted well will endure in the wild heart of Katmai: The Bears of Brooks River by Peter Ridgeway from @ospreygames with illustrations from Tom Lopez.

https://youtu.be/BdmiSV7btvk?si=124zPNEcHM-ve6TE New video is on YouTube. This week I paint up a Khorne Daemon using the John Blanche paint series by the Army Painter, to see what results I can get.
Powered through the last two games of Undaunted 2200: Callisto today. The last map is an epic struggle on two fronts, one in orbit and the other on the ground, both of which can affect the other.
Overall this was a great experience and I really enjoyed playing it. I'm not sure that I'll keep it around now that I've gone through the campaign, but I'd definitely recommend it to anyone who likes solo strategy games or has a partner or three to play it with.

OK, this is the big one! After over 5 years, Grab Bag Jungle is actually a thing that people can buy and is starting to arrive at retailers, and I am incredibly excited.
Here's a blog post on the subject... https://firsttakesomedice.blogspot.com/2025/03/welcome-to-jungle-weve-got-games.html
Follow-up #QuestionOfTheDay what's a work that you think is underrated/overlooked because of who made it/the series or franchise it was packaged under/the company that released it/etc?
For example, a game made by a company famous for action games that was not an action game so people tuned it out or dismissed it, or a song that's very different from the expected style of a musician, a movie released under a franchise that was a good movie but did not fit the franchise, etc
