A game of Conservas in play. Visible is a book with tokens on, upgrade cards, boat cards with ones in the player's fleet with tokens on, and some money.

I recently picked up Conservas by @scottalmes.bsky.social and @saltandpeppergames.bsky.social while searching for a new solo game.

I've only played a few games so far but it's so addicting!

It has everything I want in a solo experience: Short, simple & easy setup.

The card game Lands of Amazement.

First game of Lands of Amazement from @scottalmes.bsky.social and @buttonshy.bsky.social in the books. I can already tell this is probably going to be in my top tier of Button Shy games. I love a good spatial puzzle.

Just got holiday greetings email from @calliopegames.bsky.social Which reminds me: MARTIAN DICE!!! They reprinted it! It's @scottalmes.bsky.social 1st published game! They have other good stuff! (Like Tsuro!) If you're done Xmas shopping or don't do Xmas, then NEW YEAR'S EVE!! MARTIANS! #boardgames

CHECK IT OUT!!! Less than 48 hours to back Lands Of Amazement, my latest Simply Solo Game published by @buttonshy.bsky.social on @kickstarter.com. Back it if you enjoy some solo game puzzly fun with fantastic art! Super proud of this one! www.kickstarter.com/projects/239...

phase 1 of lands of amazement. Cards on the left show the rounds and final structure layout. 3 stacks of cards show the target shape options and bonuses. 3 cards overlapping are in the center in play. they show small areas of icons in a grid - that when overlapped - they try to match the target design of one of the goal cards.

final stage of a play of lands of amazement. shows the "megapark drop" layout you're trying to match. cards are overlapped with icons trying ot match that design. some other cards are scattered around... they could be used too but i hadn't figured out how to make it work at the time of the photo.

At Gen Con, I was lucky to snag a prototype of Lands of Amazement from @buttonshy.bsky.social. I enjoy this kind of spatial puzzle and I really like the layers this @scottalmes.bsky.social design adds in terms of how you carry over cards, gain bonuses, and target the final park. #SoloGaming

New cover art for Martian Dice, re-released by Calliope Games. It's a very small box game. Just a box of 13 dice and a rulebook.

The new dice art for Martian Dice. The images are not just colored, but etched into the dice. Human (blue), chicken (yellow), cow (white), tanks (red) death rays (green). Since you're playing as Martians, death rays & earthlings are what you want. On the 6-sided dice there's 2 death rays (opposite sides of the dice) and 1 of everything else. 13 dice.

The Martians have landed!🎲🐮🐔🛸👽 @calliopegames.bsky.social has reprinted @scottalmes.bsky.social 1st game!🎉 Now you can have it on your table, not just on BGA! Available on publisher's website now! #boardgames
