As a child I read a story about a cursed object that you have to sell for less than you paid for it before you die. Forgot the title, have thought about it for decades. In the upcoming @fivebygames.bsky.social, @sirbearsworth.bsky.social reviews a game based on the story! It's called THE BOTTLE IMP!

IMHO this should be the standard. During my time at The Five By I mentioned creators' names near the start of my reviews. And through the first year of Good Morning Society, Becca and I share these names during our preview of new games. #boardgames @fivebygames.bsky.social @goodtimesociety.com

My final segment as a regular contributor to The Five By. I've always loved the format: 5 reviews, 5 minutes each, 5 reviewers. It's been an honor working with this group -- I've learned so much -- and wish them much continued success. Looking forward to future episodes! #boardgames #podcasts
