In this episode, we load up our donkey carts with fruit to deliver around the island in Finca!In Finca, players take on the role of farmers at harvest time on the Spanish island of Mallorca. Move your farmers around the windmill to generate resources, collect colorful chunky fruit tokens, deliver fruit strategically around the island with your donkey cart... That's Finca in a nutshell. It's easy to teach, has beautiful art and components, and ramps up nicely to a very tense ending.Finca is one of the older games we've covered here on the podcast, having first been published in 2009 in Germany. It had been out of print for a while, but Pandasaurus Games recently issued a new edition with updated art and streamlined rules. In this episode, I talk with Raina Huang, marketing manager at Pandasaurus games, about the new edition.Links:See my photos of the original edition of Finca.Buy the new edition of Finca from Amazon.Order a First Player Token coffee mug.Visit the First Player Token website.Join the FPT Facebook group.Follow @firstplayertoken on Bluesky.Join the Family Tabletop Community on Discord.Music:“Open Road” and "Summer in Paradise" by Purple Planet.Send us a text
Waves of folded paper are calling… come play! In Sea, Salt & Paper players create an origami seascape by assembling a tableau of ocean themed cards, some with special abilities, each with its own way to score. When you reach the limit, bet on yourself for a chance to grab a big lead or play it safe and bank your points. Be warned, though. Four mermaids could undo your best beachside plans.

Designer Alex Cutler joins us on the submarine! Alex has been working many years as the head developer for Pandasaurus games and most recently had success with Carboard Alchemy with his game Critter Kitchen. He talks about the steps he took and the journey he went on to eventually become a full time designer. Lots of wisdom is shared so we hope you enjoy the conversation as much as we did!
Reviews of the criminally good District Noir and cosy-coastguard-em-up Beacon Patrol from Pandasaurus, an early peek at the retro-tinged horror from Headware Games' Hollowbody, the superb search action of Ubisoft's Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown, and spending a sultry couple of hours with Grant Howitt's Sexy Battle Wizards. All that, and the bleep button, on Ep194. 02:37 - Sexy Battle Wizards 17:14 - District Noir 26:05 - Beacon Patrol 33:52 - Hollowbody 46:00 - Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown 58:07 - FAQ it, or…? On this episode were Peter (@XeroXeroXero) and Sam (@MrSamTurner). Our Spotify Playlist brings together lots of great thematic music inspired by the stuff we talk about. Links to where you can find us - StayingInPodcast.com Note: sometimes we'll have been sent a review copy of the thing we're talking about on the podcast. It doesn't skew how we think about that thing, and we don't receive compensation for anything we discuss, but we thought you might like to know this is the case.
This time we've got Raina of Pandasaurus and 1 Minute Boardgames to help us count down the 10 best games for couples! :)
Inauguramos nuevas cápsulas con esas sensaciones que afloran cuando jugamos alguna cosita rica que nos llame la atención más de lo común. Contenido específico del juego en cuestión. Esperamos que les guste. En esta ocasión llamó mi atención Dinosaur World, edición retail de Pandasaurus. La mecánica de optimizar las rutas a través del parque que estamos contruyendo es el gran sello de este juego, y le damos unas vueltitas para que se convenza si lo necesita para seguir viviendo o no.
Let's be honest: We'll make any excuse to talk with Elizabeth Hargrave, the Kennerspiel-winning designer of Wingspan, Mariposas, and Tussie Mussie. So our current excuse? We wanted to talk to her about her soon-to-be-released The Fox Experiment (published by Pandasaurus) and Undergrove (by AEG). So now we can nerd out about how Elizabeth marries a (usually) nature-related theme to game design -- and all the random things we've learned about the world and each other while board gaming. Timeline: 2:13 - Going Analog's pick: Virtual Revolution. 6:26 - Elizabeth's pick: The Search for the Lost Species. 13:56 - Going Analog's topic: Behind the scenes of Elizabeth's design process. 26:27 - Elizabeth's topic: What have you learned (about the world, yourself, or your friends) from games?
We hosted a huge party recently and got a ton of new board games to the table -- so we wanted to dedicate an episode to six of them! You've wondered about the hot new sequel to Scythe, Expeditions, and we played it! Plus Marrakesh from Stefan Feld and Queen Games' City Collection, Vaalbara and Rauha from Hachette Games, Overboss Duel from Brotherwise Games, and District Noir from Pandasaurus Games. We've got opinions.... Timeline: 2:15 - Expeditions. 12:29 - Vaalbara. 17:55 - Overboss Duel. 22:32 - District Noir. 29:05 - Marrakesh. 35:41 - Rauha.

Decision Space is the podcast about decisions in board games and, apparently, video games! Click on the link to join our active and welcoming Discord community, Join the crew today! (Decision Space Patreon), or Leave us a review wherever you found this podcast! Episode 107 - Campaign Games, Legacy Games, and Game Design Case Study In this episode, our intrepid co-pilot hosts first dive into the topic of campaign games and all the ways they are great and all the ways they are not. We discuss the campaign games we've played to date and how much of them we have actually finished. In the second part of the episode, we dive into a design case study for Brendan's game signed with Pandasaurus under the working title "End the Empire." Therein, Brendan discusses how he has tackled the exciting opportunity of extending his game with a campaign module. Jake take's the opportunity to pick at Brendan's choices, and tell him how he could or should have chosen differently. Brendan calls Jake an imperialist tyrant, so things are pretty much going normal over here. Why don't you hop into our Interdecisional Spaceship and come along for the ride. Pre-Planners Barrage will be our next deep dive review. Messina 1347 and The Resistance coming soon!

I always wanted to be a skate boarder, but I grew up in the country with a dirt road and also, I didn't like all the falling down so I never really got to live the dream. Pandasaurus games new release Skate Summer, grabbed me from the first, with its nostalgic promise to relive that childhood dream. It has some really interesting and unique mechanics, spot on artwork, and the creator clearly knows what they're talking about when it comes to skating. It's a promising game from a consistent company. Is it the perfect boardgame adaptation of the skater lifestyle? Do those interesting mechanics make for a solid fun game? Listen in to find out if Skate Summer lands the trick, or totally bails.

We apologize for the poor quality of Mark's half of the audio this week. We offer two possible explanations. One is that Walker, motivated as he is by spite and malice, engaged in an elaborate act of sabotage so as to undermine Mark in public. The other is that Mark (the editor, mind you) messed up the audio settings. I agree that the latter is too improbable, too conspiratorial, to take seriously--but we include it for the sake of comprehensiveness.

This week, Bob and Natasha sit down and discuss a couple of Pandasaurus games. First up is Dinosaur Island, this is a worker placement, research management game where players are building their own dinosaur parks. This certainly feels like Jurassic Park. After that they take a look at the successor, Dinosaur World. This has a very similar feel, but some key differences, mostly you get a jeep meeple or jeeple, which you move around your park giving tours. There is quite a bit more focus on the construction and placement of the park buildings. In the discussion topic this week, Bob and Natasha look at disposable games. They share their thoughts about the trend with legacy and exit style games.

I met a gamer from an antique landWho said: “Two vast and trunkless legs of plasticStand in the desert. Near them, on the sand,Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,Tell that its sculptor well those passions readWhich yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed:And on the pedestal these words appear:'My name is Cool Mini or Not, Kickstarter of Kickstarters.Look on my pledges ye Mighty, and despair!"Nothing beside remains.

In this episode, we discuss the upcoming game. BREW, by Pandasaurus Games! We also dive into our Top 5 fav Pandasaurus games and which of their games we haven't played but REALLY want to!
You just lost the other Game, didn't you? This short episode introduces the goals of this podcast and the space I am looking to create for cozy board games, RPGs, and other solo hobbies. This episode explores the Game by Pandasaurus games as a gateway solo game and as an expression of the nature of time itself. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
In this episode, host Nalin talks with Danni Loe from Pandasaurus Games about the launch of their latest game. She talks about the challenges of creating the right expectations, preparing stretch goals ahead of time, and the importance of creating strong communities. We discuss: [0:33]: Danni tells us how she started with Pandasaurus, the importance of communicating with the backers during and after the campaign, and how often they do it. [06:41]: How they converted feedback into actionable things to incorporate in their game, without even having printed it yet. [08:39]: How they plan and organize game releases. [10:21]: How Danni and the team tackled the challenge of managing the expectations to the right size, without losing the momentum they gained before launch. [14:37]: Handling haters and trolls online! [16:21]: Advice for newbies: Plan your stretch goals ahead of time and work hand in hand with a team you trust. [21:32]: Using social media to promote play-testing a digital version of the game, and which platforms to use. [26:32]: Creating a real community feeling on different platforms, and which tools they use to manage all of them without losing the one-on-one relationships. [30:20]: The importance of the communities and of creating organic relationships with backers, is what will differentiate your game from others. Those relationships and the attachment people have to their passions are something you must think about when building your game’s community. [37:02]: Last advice for game creators: play a lot of games, engage, and don’t forget your call to action! Thanks for listening to the Board Game Marketing Podcast!

Danielle, Ben, and Denice speak with Alex Cutler, designer of Expancity by Breaking Games. Alex also co-designed “Before There Were Stars” by Smirk and Laughter, “Team 3” by Brain Games, and develops games for Pandasaurus. Alex talks about his journey of spending years working on his SimCity inspired game, from prototyping using Legos to learning how to 3-D print his building pieces. Alex took his love of city planning and architecture to design a game that allows players to build from the ground up. Alex shares his experiences of prototyping, finding Breaking Games, reviewing game design contracts and where the game is now a few years later. If you're an aspiring designer you will not want to miss Alex's tips on contracts and inspiring words about never giving up on a design.

The boys are back and hatching, cracking and showcasing all the dinosaurs your heart could ever desire in Dinosaur Island from Pandasaurus Games.

Sometimes its nice to play a game that's all about the endeavour to push the limits of what humanity can achieve in science and exploration. Most importantly, it's nice to do it better than your opponents. Godspeed, by Pandasaurus games; a game that's not so much about achieving greatness on an alien world as it is about doing it first and for the glory of your chosen nation.

My friends provide the location, and my girlfriend and I provide the games and teach them to play.I've come to realize that I'm atrocious at describing how to play board games. I'm relatively new to these games myself, but if I were to simply sit down and play, I could do so without issue. The moment it comes time to teach others, however, my mind becomes scattered and I begin forgetting even fundamental rules. I regularly spend hours watching board game review/how-to-play videos, but they don’t seem to have improved my teaching skills in any meaningful way.I suspect the issue is that in any given situation, my focus snaps to the social aspects of the environment. When I should be describing the board game, I'm instead noticing whenever anyone shifts their weight, glances elsewhere, or moves a component.The irony is that in the past, I’ve been hired to give informative presentations on stage in front of hundreds of people and never had an issue. Something about the smaller more-personal environment makes teaching board games a far greater challenge.Firstly, do you have any recommendations on how to better teach board games in general?Secondly, do you have any suggestions on how to maintain focus on teaching the game instead of the people in the room?Thank you in advance for the advice, and be well!"Links: Ep. 5 - Back to School, Ep. 23 - Second Semester, ---Announcements--- Newsletter: Sign up for our newsletter.
