Friday the 13th? Please... The only thing we’re afraid of is a bad dice roll that ruins our entire strategy.
Okay, maybe we’re a little bit superstitious. But if the universe is going to throw bad luck our way, we might as well make it a game night! It’s the perfect day to face off against that one friend who always insists they’re “just playing for fun” while they plot your destruction.
Welcome to this week’s Board Game Afterwork!
Use your imagination to piece together your perfect kingdom or just make a beautiful mess. It’s the ultimate creative escape for when you want to avoid all the Friday the 13th spooky nonsense. Thanks to Bruno Cathala and Théo Rivière, the game designers, as well as the publisher, Next Move Games, and of course Mizutismask for the BGA version.
Libertalia – Winds of Galescrest
Ready to sail the skies and plunder your way to the top? It’s a pirate’s life, which is basically the high-seas version of Friday the 13th: everyone’s out to get you, and you’re probably going to betray your best friend for a pile of loot in this revisited and expanded version of Libertalia. No hard feelings, right? A tip of the hat to Paolo Mori, the game designer, to Stonemaier Games, the publisher and to KuWizard and ShaharHarshuv for the port on BGA.
This game is the exact opposite of a Friday the 13th curse. It’s all about finding zen in the chaos, because even when the universe is acting up, your cat’s living their best life. Consider this game today’s official protection charm against bad luck. Let’s roll the red carpet for Oussama Khelifati and Olivier Cipiere, the game designers, as well as the Rebel’s cat lovers, and let’s not forget firgon for the BGA adaptation.
Expect total mayhem in this trick-taking game as you become a daring adventurer heading into perilous quests equipped with dice and a motley crew of mercenaries. Your best-laid plans will probably blow up in your face, especially today. It’s all about outsmarting your friends with a mix of luck and absolute nonsense. Thanks to Pete Wissinger, the game designer, and to Inside Up Games, the publisher. And of course, to _j0hn for the BGA version.
It’s a tower defense card game in which players become the Guardians of the Orchard, a group of brave vegetables who pilot combat robots and defend the Orchard from the invasion of the RabbitZ, a horde of mutant zombie rabbits. Probably safer than playing with ouija boards, but only just. No robots were harmed in the making of this game, we think… A huge thanks to Lorena Gestido and Javier Martínez Gómez, the game designers, and the Rocket Lemon Games team. And thanks to pegoletech for the BGA port.
Let’s not forget King of the Dice and Paladins of the West Kingdom that also made their way to BGA this week.
This is it for this week, enjoy today’s chaos and more to come next week (games, not chaos)!
Družabna igra po delu: Danes je srečen dan!
Petek trinajstega? Prosim ... Edino, česar se bojimo, je slab met kocke, ki nam uniči celotno strategijo.
Prav, morda smo malo vraževerni. Ampak če nam vesolje že pošilja smolo, si raje privoščimo večer iger! To je idealen dan za soočenje s tistim prijateljem, ki vedno vztraja, da se "samo igra za zabavo", medtem ko načrtuje tvoje uničenje.
Dobrodošli na ta tedenskem delu z družabnimi igrami!
S svojo domišljijo sestavite svoje popolno kraljestvo ali pa preprosto ustvarite čudovito zmešnjavo. To je ultimativni ustvarjalni pobeg, ko se želite izogniti vsem srhljivim neumnostim petka 13. Zahvaljujemo se oblikovalcema iger Brunu Cathali in Théu Rivièru, pa tudi založniku Next Move Games in seveda Mizutismasku za različico BGA.
Libertalia – Vetrovi Galecresta
Ste pripravljeni jadrati po nebu in se prebiti na vrh? To je gusarsko življenje, ki je v bistvu različica petka 13. na odprtem morju: vsi vas bodo ujeli in verjetno boste v tej prenovljeni in razširjeni različici Libertalije izdali svojega najboljšega prijatelja za kup plena. Brez zamer, kajne? Kapa Paolu Moriju, oblikovalcu igre, Stonemaier Games, založniku ter KuWizardu in ShaharHarshuvu za prenos na BGA.
Ta igra je ravno nasprotje prekletstva iz filma Petkov trinajsti. Gre za iskanje zena v kaosu, saj tudi ko se vesolje obnaša slabo, vaša mačka živi svoje najboljše življenje. Upoštevajte to igro kot današnji uradni zaščitni amulet pred slabo srečo. Pripravimo rdečo preprogo za Oussamo Khelifati in Olivierja Cipiereja, oblikovalca iger, pa tudi za ljubitelje mačk iz Rebel's, in ne pozabimo na firgon za BGA-priredbo.
V tej igri trikov pričakujte popoln kaos, ko se boste kot drzni pustolovec podali na nevarne naloge, opremljeni s kockami in pisano ekipo plačancev. Vaši najbolje premišljeni načrti se vam bodo verjetno izjalovili, še posebej danes. Gre za to, da s kombinacijo sreče in popolnih neumnosti prelisičite svoje prijatelje. Zahvala gre oblikovalcu igre Petu Wissingerju in založniku Inside Up Games. In seveda _j0hn za različico BGA.
Gre za igro s kartami tipa obrambni stolp, v kateri igralci postanejo Varuhi sadovnjaka, skupina pogumnih zelenjadnic, ki pilotirajo bojne robote in branijo sadovnjak pred invazijo RabbitZ, horde mutiranih zombijevskih zajcev. Verjetno varneje kot igranje z ouija deskami, ampak za las. Menimo, da pri izdelavi te igre ni bil poškodovan noben robot ... Velika zahvala Loreni Gestido in Javierju Martínezu Gómezu, oblikovalcema igre, ter ekipi Rocket Lemon Games. In hvala pegoletechu za prenos na BGA.
Ne pozabimo na King of the Dice in Paladins of the West Kingdom, ki sta ta teden prav tako prišli na BGA.
To je to za ta teden, uživajte v današnjem kaosu in še več, kar sledi naslednji teden (igre, ne kaos)!
