Damn, I need a better selection of colours, but this will do for now

As the name implies, Companies are an important focus, so their logos are very interesting. I love how creative they are.

Some more cards. These ones do not have duplicates. I love how they do appear to have inspiration from other media, but are distinctly unique.

Ganmue@ganmue· Mar 12

Some of the cards for the game. These ones have some duplicates, but there is a huge variety

Ganmue@ganmue· Mar 12

A closer look at the amount of details. Breathtaking details

Ganmue@ganmue· Mar 12

The main board of the game is absolutely gorgeous, a beautiful landscape filled to brim with details.

Photo of the main board for the game. The board is small relatively speaking but immensely full of detail.

Wonderful surprise, the character are player shields/aids

A photo of 6 folded player shields that are also player aids and turn references. The characters described in the thread above are among the six. Each character is equally rich in detail

Very lovely surprise near the end of the rulebook, a proper dapper fellow greets us.

Another photo from the rulebook. There is an artwork of a corvid creature. They are wearing a cape made of feathers, little mechanical bat-like wings on the back and pouches and a bag on their belt. Their body is shaped like a teardrop, resembling a penguin. They have webbed, three toed avian feet. The character is holding a cane adorned with gears in front of them. They are also wearing a tophat that has 3 belts and a mask reminiscent of a plague doctor

I was inspired to start taking pictures because this art in the rulebook looked so cute

Small snippet from the rulebook. Main focus is a young looking person, piloting an interesting looking mech. The mech appears to be fluffy, like a teddy bear, or a cloud, and the pilot is inside an opening that looks like a mouth, which is adorned by teeth. On the back of the mech there are screws half-way drilled in and the front of the mech has what looks like a zipper. There are dozens of steampunk details everywhere, gears, pipes and machinery all across the mech

Just received some mail, a new boardgame: Compania. I want to highlight some of the art, because GODDAMN it is so pretty

Photo of the cover of the boardgame Compania.
Design and artwork by Akase Yog.
The Cover shows a landscape of a city, there is machinery and steampunk inspiration clearly everywhere. The box is heavily detailed, small structures in the town are visible and in the background is a looming mountain range

I am LOVING UNBEATABLE

Screenshot from the game UNBEATABLE. One character has a speech bubble saying: Let's start by covering up the copaganda in the shack.
There is a designer note, in a similiar fashion to old anime translator notes, saying: Band posters are surprisingly effective at screwing with fascists

Been blitzing through rusted moss recently, it is really, REALLY good

I do love humid air but this mist is getting to silent hill levels soon... and I am so here for it

As little as I celebrate christmas personally, I am happy that I was able to spread joy today. Happy holidays to all, in whatever way you spend it

Ganmue@ganmue· Dec 21

Let's spread some end of the year joy around. Nature is healing! (Some of my fave pics I've seen floating around)

Ganmue@ganmue· Dec 21

The buutons on the shirt really giving this energy

Ganmue@ganmue· Dec 18

Sheesh, my preferences are "slightly" obvious. Kinda happy with how effectively I've been going through my backlog this year, wrote 97 reviews, most of them private. 24 Games finished this year, hopefully soon 25 or 26, depending on if I finish Silksong and Spiritfarer this year

Bored of doomposting and doomscrolling, time for hopeposting

Screencap from Library of Ruina dialogue. Tiphereth is saying: Every one of us has our own worth and meaning simply by existing

Daily reminder for all of us who don't celebrate our birthday, that we should celebrate every day that we live and survive

A screencap from a game, with the text:
Because it's nice to have your existence celebrated once every year, for no other reason than the fact that you exist

Ganmue@ganmue· Sep 1

yeah.... about that...

Happy pride ya'll! Remember to help others, together people are unstoppable

<3 those are super adorable, is there a way/place to buy them?

Ganmue@ganmue· May 30

Nice. Grats

STORY SPOILERS Generally speaking, I would like to see more stories of exceptional circumstances, where ordinary, mundane people rise to the occasion, but I am not as a rule, against chosen-one stories. Do wish there was more, but it was perfectly fine. I liked the character interactions a lot

I feel like there are so much more to know, so much left unexplored in the world and story, but I do appreciate that they minimized filler and left a lot up to you to figure out.

Fun little note in the later areas I had, there is obviously a lot of QA that went in to the game even this late. I feel they avoided as much frustration as possible, for example, in this point, the enemy misses you, if you stand still, which, if you know the area, is quite helpful.

View of the main character standing still and a bullet fired towards her, which is flying a bit above her, missing her.

I quite appreciate the funny names of the quests. While they are a bit silly, they light up otherwise a very serious mood of the game.

Small view of the mission name and objective. Name of the quest is: this is madness and the task is to kill raider spartans, in reference to the movie 300

Ganmue@ganmue· May 5

While the is an RPG-lite, I appreciate how unnoticeable that aspect is. When you level up, the flow remains, and you get a small notification, but I didn't even realize it usually. It makes the story flow so well, you feel naturally stronger, not artifically levelled up.

The level box and experience bar, mostly filled.

One of the more satisfying feelings in a game, is when you are so in-tune with it, that you can intuitively feel, WHERE there are hidden walls. Might be the 20+ years of gaming, or might be me just vibing with the game, but I feel like the hidden walls in this game are generally quite well placed
