#3157 A helpful tutorial

Had an amazing and intense 3-week board game design workshop at Chitkara Design School. We spent the first days playing and dissecting games, then dove deep into the design process, common mechanics and the grind of iterative development.

Final days to go and we’re so close to our next Stretch Goal! Over the weekend, Anand Boardgame Club in Gujarat played Tadoba, Sinauli, and Muziris in full PNP format — with laughs, competition, and even a last-round 1-point upset in Sinauli! Thanks ABC 🥰 #pnp www.kickstarter.com/projects/sid...

My week included a little something for everyone. What did you play?

Today's podcast episode features the Reiner Knizia classic, Tigris & Euphrates. Mark Johnson from @boardgamestogo.bsky.social joins us and we also discuss Tycoon: India 1981 and Castles of Tuscany. Listen here: spotifycreators-web.app.link/e/1bSiq79lZUb #boardgames

Got to play Wroth and Tycoon: India 1981 with Adam tonight. Wroth is interesting and quick but didn’t work great at 2. Tycoon: India 1981 is a great economic euro and I’m excited to play it again.

🧡At IBGDC, the decision to base our games around Tadoba, Sinauli, and Muziris comes from a deeply personal place. These regions are close to the hometowns of our core team members—Deepak from Kerala, Amit from Maharashtra, and Neha from Uttar Pradesh. www.kickstarter.com/projects/sid...

Greetings! We’re thrilled to finally share the final looks and art updates for all three games in our upcoming Kickstarter — each one a piece of India, brought to life through vibrant art and unique gameplay. www.kickstarter.com/projects/sid...

Coming soon #ibgdc ibgdc.com

Yes! My copy of Tycoon: India 1981 made it!! Can't wait til the weekend to crack this open! @sidhantchand.bsky.social

2nd play of Tycoon: India 1981. Really smart design. Having a great time with this hidden gem.

@boardgamehottakes.bsky.social Tycoon: India 1981. Economic entanglement with some very combo-y action selection amidst the backdrop of the Indian industrial revolution.

It’s Finally Here! 🚀 After 2 years of passion, dedication, and hard work, we’re hitting a major milestone, my upcoming game "Biomes of Nilgiris" by Bluencore is now LIVE on Kickstarter! 🌿 Join us on this extraordinary journey! Be part of something truly special: www.kickstarter.com/projects/184...

A weekend boardgaming retreat - just me, some gamer friends, some good mix of games and pure fun! Games played: 1. Food Chain Magnate 2. Nemesis 3. Boitas 4. Faraway 5. Subastral #boardgames #cardgames #retreat #tabletopgames

The Royal Thief, the most downloaded game (of course it's a free PNP) is now back in a new avatar! It's a 1-card game!! Included cards and rulebook, check it out here: zenwoodgames.com/products/roy... #zenwoodgames #boardgames #cardgames #onecardgame #indie #gamedesign

🚀 Exciting News! 🚀 This week, my friends and I got together to play Biomes of Nilgiris—just days before it launches on Kickstarter! It was amazing to see everyone take unique approaches to exploring the game’s mechanics and strategy. 🌿🎲

Tagging the designer. @sidhantchand.bsky.social Fantastic trick taking game.

A simply amazing, thematic euro I'd say, with one of the neatest scoring I can find! The rulebook is fiddly, so there are chances of misinterpreting things. Apart from that, a lovely evening spent building the "Autobahn" of Germany and beyond! #boardgames #eurogames #cardgames #autobahn #kickstarter

Players play as students trying to pass their strategy exam, as they play "Civolution" - extremely satisfying game with a ton of things possible to do (which you won't necessarily explore in the first few games to say the least). No doubt, a great CIV game, tons of cards, tiles, tokens, meeples...

As we close 2024, we’re filled with gratitude and excitement, thanks to the incredible experiences at Meeplecon Mumbai, TTOX Bengaluru, and Unboxed Game Fest Ahmedabad. These conventions were a true celebration of gaming, community, and the growing love for board games in India

Happy New Year 2025 my fellow boardgamers!❤️ May you play double the games than 2024 and make great memories! #boardgames #cardgames #india #happy #newyear #2025

Tycoons of Bengaluru at TTOX Bengaluru!! What an amazing convention it was! Also, we had a partnership player where 2 people represented 1 player; was fun to experiment haha #tycoon #india #boardgames #cardgames #tabletopgames #india #zenwoodgames

Stumbled across this pretty cool looking game called The Final Commander, and it is Made/Designed in India it seems! thefinalcommander.com Eager to see the demo, I think they have taken some space in the UBGF Convention next year 😮

An early prototype of Tycoon: India 1981! 2 years later, a funded indie Kickstarter :) www.kickstarter.com/projects/sid... #boardgames #india #gamedesign #gamedevelopment #playtest ##prototypes #tycoon #1981 #strategygame #zenwoodgames
