Tumblr media
Here is the board along with all the cards!

Here's what your player card should look like while playing!!!
In this game you play as a knight and your goal is beating other knight's castles! While traveling you can battle monsters and add them to your castle to defend it!

At the bookstore today I saw this new Mary Shelley game. It may seem like a cash-grab but honestly I think Mary herself would LOVE this. Mary's father William Godwin owned a children's bookstore which sold games as well. When they weren't writing some of the most acclaimed 18th century philosophy, he and his first wife Mary Wollstonecraft also wrote some childrens literature, and both focused heavily on youth education in their belief system. Later, Mary and Percy Shelley (both inspired by her parents, whom they idolized) also worked on childrens stories together and bonded over their mutual love for children, games, education, and imaginative play all around.

The description reads thus: "Contained within these three volumes is a secret many have devated their entire lives to unearthing, and always in vain. It is a secret I would have taken with me to the grave, except that it is, in more ways than ane, our family's legacy, and thus rightfully belongs with you.
"You have just received 'The Shelley Volumes,' a collection of hollowed-out books left by Mary Shelley (author of Frankenstein) to her son, Florence. Inside you'll discover a trove of beautiful documents, 2D and 3D jigsaw puzzles, and other mysterious objects and artifacts. Solve Mary's puzzles and you'll be treated to a heartbreaking story that culminates in a shocking reimagining of the truth behind her famous novel."
From the website: "Mother of Frankenstein is a groundbreaking new game that combines the best of escape rooms, immersive theater, and prose fiction."

I'm sitting here, coming up with a parody version of Clue™ just for a Lockwood and Co fanfic one-shot.
...
It's kinda fun, actually!
It's called "Haunted Mansion"
Instead of "solve the murder" it's "find the source."
Instead of playing suspect characters, you play different Agents (and a Supervisor) to make up a team.
Instead of "murder weapons" you have "potential sources."
And instead of trying to figure out who is the murderer, you try to figure out who's ghost is haunting the mansion.
I'm still figuring out the other mechanics, but so far I know it involves an egg timer, and suffering attacks from the "ghost."

It's promotion time!
An IRL friend and I have been working on a boardgame for the past year or so, and we're launching on Kickstarter today!
All the art in the game was done by yours truly! If you like economic strategy, trade and engine building games this game is going to be right up your alley - check out the KS page HERE!
And to celebrate, I'll be holding a special Pledge Raffle! Everyone who messages me a pledge confirmation will be entered into a raffle for a Sit YCH and a 4-emote bundle! I'll be picking 3 winners at the end of the campaign!
If the game piques your interest, I'd really appreciate it if you could check it out or reblog and share it with any friends who like boardgames as well!

I had this idea years ago and started, but put on the back burner until I forgot about it. Anyways to pass my break time I started working on this again from scratch (Since I haven't received any commissions lately.) Would you play this game? Or more specifically, would Alex Hirsch approve?
Gravity Falls: Clues
The story: Preston Northwest's body has been found at the mystery Shack. Knowing how terrible the sherif is at his job, the mystery team take it on themselves to solve this... travesty?

Tell me what you think!
EDIT: Updated the board design to make it more square, and gave it a boarder plus a subtle guideline for if anyone wants to make it into a foldable gameboard. Enjoy!
EDIT #2: Found a better image for the kitchen to use. Much better.

The Original illuminati Card Game from the 80s had all this planned out already. Every prediction, every event, our future and our past are in these. You Decide 🤔

For those unaware, this AI stuff is a side thing...
Tumblr media
My main blog is bugbeast - where I post (non-AI) art, the photos this blog's content is based on, and games, too.
In fact, I have a card game out right now; it's called Jewel Thief and you can check out this post to learn more about it. Though, I'll have to spoil that the game can be played for free with a deck of cards and the rules downloable from the shop page
Tumblr media
And, just for kicks, here's a waifu, husbando, and dragon generated using the game's titular character as a base

Think that covers most of my bases...

Let's play a game!
This board game is Ecology: The Game of Man and Nature.
The object of the game is to lead a population through four ages of Civilization, Hunting, Agricultural, Industrial, and Atomic, to reach an ideal Environmental Age.
Urban Systems, Inc. was a consulting and research firm, whose president, Richard H. Rosen, was an ecologist and environmental engineer. While teaching undergraduate air pollution classes at Harvard, Rosen produced a number of anti-pollution board games for educational purposes.
There are a few more photos on our digital collection site, so please click here to check them out!

Re-Animator/Arkham Horror Custom Game Content: The Investigators
I don't have a title for this project yet, but it's basically its own expansion pack at this point. If anybody has any ideas for a rad name, lemme know!
These cards have only been playtested in a non-representative game; I will probably try to playtest them again tonight!
Tumblr media
Card info reads as follows:
Francesca Danelli the Journalist 4 Sanity 6 Stamina
Home: Newspaper Fixed Possessions: $7, 1 Clue Token, 1 Special (Retainer) Random Possessions: 2 Common Items, 1 Spell, 1 Skill SPECIAL: She is a Wartime Journalist. Any phase: Francesca gains +1 to combat rolls when wielding guns. She gains 1 extra Clue token from all in-game events or items, excluding Clues collected from unstable Locations.
Focus: 2 SPEED: 0 1 2 3 SNEAK: 5 4 3 2 FIGHT: 1 2 3 4 WILL: 3 2 1 0 LORE: 2 3 4 5 LUCK: 4 3 2 1
Creator Comments: The hardest part was, let's be real, trying to make Francesca into a character who isn't defined entirely as "one leg in the really toxic love triangle between her, Dan and Herbert". It's a shame that "Bride" never gave her space to be somebody. Being an international journalist who is habitually embedded in war zones in the late 1980s is truly rich soil for a character to grow in.
Francesca is slow because she's unfamiliar with Arkham's layout; this gives her a higher Sneak so she can escape monsters if need be. Her low Will and low-ish Sanity mean she may well break from the horror of seeing monsters before she gets a chance to fight them, but everybody's gotta have weaknesses. She has mid-grade Luck to help her cope with random encounters.
Her high Lore is partly to justify giving her a Spell, but mostly because "Lore" as a stat relates to how well an investigator correctly understands and copes with the Mythos as they encounter it in-game. And, well. Francesca had Herbert's number from frame one, didn't she? She could've gotten an award for Most Correct Character In "Bride" On Literally Every Call She Made, if she hadn't decided that Dan was Dudley Do-Right.

Looking for board game artists
Ever wanted to draw a milfy witch decapitating a robot with a chainsaw? Lesbian pirate in a gunfight with a cowboy wizard? Link from Legend of Zelda combined with Mad Max as he lambasts a Graverobber (a zombie criminal) with a crowbar as he rides a robot alligator?
If any of this sounds to your interest, then you're the kind of artist I'm looking for! I'm opening auditions for an art team that'll help design my board game, Wreak Havoc!
Message me if you feel up for taking a stab at it!
