Check out my session report of the game session at Game Emporium this past Monday. If you have any questions, just let me know. If you run a store or have a great local game store that would be willing to have me come by and teach some games, leave a comment below.
I’ll be demoing Eagle & Gryphon games at Game Emporium on July 16th from 8 to 10 PM. You can come by, learn some new games, maybe pick up one through the store! I’m currently planning on bringing and teaching Incan Gold, Pastiche, Can’t Stop, Roll Through the Ages, and High Society. Incan Gold is a push your luck style game where the players are going into a cursed temple. Each turn they must decide individually if they are going deeper into the temple, hoping for more treasure, or running out of the temple and keeping the treasure they have...
Arrived in Columbus, OH yesterday for Origins Game Fair 2012. First thing on the list was to visit the Mayfair room and see some old friends: The next stop was event registration, where I saw tables with Mayfair games printed on them. It was a very interesting idea and seemed really well made: Finally over to the Board Game Room to play Elder Sign and check out the rest of the library of games that the Columbus Area Boardgaming Society brought: Overall, a pretty good first day. Today I’ll be demoing for Mayfair and Eagle & Gryphon games, so if...
With only one week to go, I’m more excited for Origins this year than ever. I already have plans to try some new games at the con, teach lots of games for Mayfair Games and Eagle & Gryphon Games, have some wonderful ice cream at the North Market, and just have a blast gaming with friends for five days. For this year, I believe the Twitter hashtag for the convention is #Origins2012. If you follow me on twitter, you’ll be seeing a lot of updates and probably some pictures as well. I’ll tweet about the games I’m playing, pictures of...
On May 5th and 6th, there’s a mini convention happening in Solon, Ohio. It’s going to be a small get together, 30-40 people, but it’s should be all kinds of fun and a great way to get the gaming convention season kicked off right. I plan on going and taking games to teach and play, and I’ll have some promo stuff to give away for everyone who comes and learns the games I bring along. Details can be found on the Gamers with Jobs forums. Gamers with Jobs is a podcast about video and board gaming in an age where...
Origins is officially only 49 days away! I know that they don’t have their event schedule up yet, but anyone who’s gone before will know that this isn’t a new thing for them. So who is planning on going? If you’re running something, feel free to talk about it in the comments below. I know that I’ll be running some games for Mayfair Games as well as Eagle & Gryphon Games. Aside from gaming (yes, even I know there are other things in life), I’m looking forward to going to the North Market for at least a lunch or two, as...
