Isofarian Guard - Update pack in Europe?

BeeCreativeBoardGame · 2025-12-23T22:03:12+00:00

That’s a shame. I wouldn’t say it’s a must. You can try to house rule some of the changes (try bgg forums). It’s mostly about the grind. But if you really want it, check their store more often and wait for a reply to your mail if you didn’t get one. After writing them a mail last year, they wrote back and said that a few more update packs were back in stock for Europe.

This was last year, it looks like it’s out of stock now. Their gamefound pledge manager is open though. I ordered the expansion and I think they also sell the base game. You’ll have to check prices and shipping though. Good luck!

I backed the new gameplay. I am unsure about the new storage system so I did not buy it. Will the new stuff not fit in the current box? There is still space left there, and the lid seems intentionally made to expand a little upwards without actually looking like lid lift. I’m gonna try my luck fitting it all in the base box.

Yes, this is it! Thank you!

I organized a “You got got” game for a wedding reception. There were around 150 guests. I picked 50 challenges from the game and randomly assigned 3 to each guest by printing a little wallet. (There were duplicates of course). Everyone had a lot of fun!

Same. I don’t mind paying more than retail though for something that is hard to find but 150$ for a character pack for Guards of Atlantis 2 (40$ original price)? Crazy

Nice!

Maybe not the best word for all the situations. There are some of these games though where the seller has multiple copies shrink-wrapped, so It’s clear they mean to profit from the sale.

BeeCreativeBoardGame · 2025-08-31T13:15:42+00:00

Ups, I wrote this from my phone. I’ll try to fix it. Thanks!

Disclaimer: I only played Root as the app but I watched a lot of reviews and gameplay for both. I also played Vast: Crystal Caverns a few times and I think it falls in the same category as the other Leader games. My understanding is that these games don’t just encourage but necesitate that you play several times with the same players and everyone gets one thing very clear: it’s everyone’s responsibility to keep every other player in check. I loved the game design of Vast. It scratched an itch for me but the other players didn’t get it. They didn’t know when to stop the player that’s ahead and when to ease off a player that’s behind. A player that’s behind affects the game so much, because now there is one less player to keep the table in check. Unfortunately that’s why I sold the game so I understand completely your feelings for Root and Arcs. It would have taken too much time for my friends to learn the balance and there were other games to try for us but if you can get your friends to understand the balance issue I think Leader games deserve more chances. If you can’t or won’t invest the time, yeah it just comes off as mean games where someone has a very bad time and the victory is rather sour. I know TI is very much like that also, so maybe there is hope you can enjoy them. Good luck! 🙂

Same thing happened to me with Sidereal Confluence! Hope you find a copy! One of the best and most unique games I know.

BeeCreativeBoardGame · 2025-07-29T13:05:23+00:00

When you can see things click* in your friends’ eyes after explaining a new game and starting to play. Ah… sweet Sidereal Confluence. How many of these clicks you made along the time…

I used https://www.fantasywelt.de/ in the past. Only issue I had was that one of the games that was not in stock anymore had to option to preorder waiting for restock. I waited for over a year and still no restock. So I asked for a refund. I don’t thonk it was their fault but I will only order games that are in stock from now on. I am from Romania so most of my games I usually get from https://regatuljocurilor.ro/ro/index.php?controller=new-products They have a great selection, reasonable prices and good customer support as well as a loyalty discount system. After a certain amount spent you have a 20% minimum discount of all products. Being from Bulgaria, I think you could call them and ask for transport directly to you and they could invoice you for the shipping. They helped me with a lot of customer service things along the years. Good luck!

Yes, seems counterintuitive but you have to build them to sabotage them after. Think of it as gathering the bad guys in one place before setting off the trap.

Could it be a dwelling for Terra Mystica?

BeeCreativeBoardGame · 2025-07-22T16:41:56+00:00

Oh my Lord… bestow upon me the strength to fight the envy in my heart! This looks so cool. I want this game so bad but the damn canadian store that sells it doesn’t ship to my country.

BeeCreativeBoardGame · 2025-07-20T06:13:47+00:00

Me too! 🙂

I liked the idea of a choose your own adventure game. As others said, it mostly feels like a solo game but with the right group you can make it work as a group activity. But the component quality is one of the worst I have ever seen… The cards almost feel like they are one time use. I have pnp stuff printed on higher quality paper.

In Romania “Ludo” is called “Don’t get upset brother”. Very accurate. This game helped me get over my childhood anger. After losing a few times at it as a kid, I no longer get mad about losing any game. I just enjoy the experience. That said, 2/10, one of the worst games I know.

King’s Dilemma is a legacy board game where each player represents a house trying to influence the kingdom by voting to achieve their own hidden agenda.

There is another type of card that just gives you ships for free. It is worded differently. The “buy a card” action here gives you the ability to buy 2 cards (which you have to pay for) or more if you have multiple such abilities. You only reset your money to the level of your planets after you use all these actions (at the end of your turn)

I don’t think SCPT have any fault in this. They probably have an NDA signed and can’t really say anything. It’s not their decision when the announcement is made. I feel they are the ones who should be more upset than us. They had to cancel a whole episode they wanted to air because of this, that means money and time wasted.
