WHAT. A. WEEKEND. Thank you to every single one of you who stopped by our stand at AireCon. ❤️ We are so proud of the curated catalogue of games we’re building in the UK, and nothing makes us happier than watching people play and enjoy them. Weekends like this are the reason we do what we do – fun, joy, and community. Special thanks goes out to… - the @aireconuk team for putting on one of the best weekends of the year. - @flosrex for heading to Harrogate, all the way from France, to teach his very own designs. - our ridiculously brilliant team, who do everything to ensure that everyone leaves our booth happy. - the other exhibitors at the show who share the passion, retail the games, and look out for one another to keep this amazing hobby growing. - our publishers and studios who keep the great games coming. But special special special thanks to you – the gaming community. Without you, this wouldn’t be happening. You’re the best.

Getting ready for @aireconuk should involve loading our van, checking our supplies, and readying up our stand. But then we found out @flosrex , co-designer of Stomp The Plank, will be with us on Friday & Saturday. Need to up our skills… 🐘💦 Come and meet Florian, and get copies his games such as The ART Project, After Us, and Stomp The Plank signed and played with him. See you at AireCon 😜

See you next week!

Happy St David’s Day, and a shoutout to some of our favourite gaming dragons. 🐉 This little posse is from Vivarium – a game that sees players exploring a mystical subterranean world discovered beneath Siberia. All manner of flora and fauna have flourished here, including dragons! Players must explore a map to discover the wonders of this world using a clever dominoes system to set their coordinates. If you like brisk and quick-playing games that are nonetheless laden with moments where your brain is working on overdrive to piece together upcoming turns, Vivarium is well worth checking out. Packed with gorgeous illustration, here’s just a handful of the creatures you’ll find beneath the Earth’s crust.

That’s a wrap! A huge thank you to @festival_des_jeux_cannes and the As d’Or games awards. We secured TWO wins across the four categories! 🏆 🏔 Faraway is The Best Intermediate Game of the Year! 🧩 My Puzzle Adventure is The Best Children’s Game of the Year! To have our games shortlisted among a wealth of high-calibre entrants, and judged by some of the greatest minds in gaming means the world to us. To win means a thousand times that. We love this hobby. ❤️

With universal critical acclaim and early shortlistings for major awards, Faraway is set to be *the* hit of 2024. 💥 This game sees you laying out a series of cards and scoring them. Except the twist is you score them BACKWARDS! ↩️ You place your heavy-hitting score cards early on, and then spend the game acquiring the icons you need to score them… and my goodness does it feel rewarding when you pull it off. Scales brilliantly from 2-6 players. This one is hitting UK shelves in mid-March, with pre-orders open at many game stores already. Don’t miss this one! #boardgames #hachette #boardgamegeek #ukge #gamenight #boardgamesuk #boardgamer #faraway #tabletopgames #gaming #ukboardgames
