I started writing a blog around reviews and feedback. 250 words later, I realized the blog I actually wanted to write was about a peculiar phenomenon I’ve been observing in BGG reviews and demo comments. Some folks will play a game with us, then comment that they enjoyed it but wish rule X was different. The polite version of me listens intently, but my actual internal reaction is always “then play that way”.
Back from Tokyo
CPG has returned from the Tokyo Game Market and the Tabletop Game Alliance Trade Mission. We had an amazing time making new fans, playing Japanese games, eating the best food, and visiting a variety of animal cafes. A lot happened, so we’ll hit the highlight reel that’s relevant for folks reading this.
