I dont know really but hey at least im having fun learing about ADDIE because of Skeleton Machine talked about it.

wirebound printed a4 colour instructions for VolleyBrawl

I am lucky in many little ways not the least of which is being friends and neighbours with the most awesome JRPrint of Horsham who took the instructions for #Volleybrawl and printed them like this

Its a Kind of Magic .. I have been holding this page back , for no other reason than its not really had a chance to be tested in play and I feel it can create a slow down in how players assemble their hands. However the Mag...

Its a Kind of Magic
I include the Magic rules in #Volleybrawl in this release ( .9 ) as I think it answers .. What is the purpose of team cohesion cards other than a value to meet ?

Its not dead, its just waiting for the next match.

So it happened .. im around 80% on where I want to be with #VolleyBrawl and im already looking at my other game ideas. Weirdly I might just get SnakeDice out of my system next. SnakeDice answers the question what if a Nokia phone game was played with D6 and D4s?
