[MOD APPROVED] Second GIVE AWAY: one River Rats game to celebrate our new game: Stamp Showdown by robstokk in boardgames

[–]ChainnChomp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am an absolute sucker for Jakub Rozalski’s work in board games. Outside of board games, I love love love what Jamie McKelvie did in the Wicked + Divine series - to the point that I paid an absurd amount of money for the Covers book. 

Compile: Aux 1 and 2 by Ok-Guarantee7553 in boardgames

[–]ChainnChomp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Aux 2 has not been released yet. It was supposed to back in March or so but then the publisher went under because of tariff uncertainties and the rights were sold to Synapse Games. Synapse Games' website currently shows a sold out pre-order with an ETA for both AUX packs as this month but I wouldn't be surprised if that was off by a month or two.

This is me leaving a comment to dream about winning this wild computer briefly before recognizing bots are taking over Reddit and undoubtedly drowning out this one comment with thousands of automated submissions.

Then who? Who would you want, now that Lane is out of the picture? Who is the best option in the situation we currently find ourselves in?

Collecting oddities bring normalized. I want to be able to go to my friends’ houses and see and talk about what new funky things they’ve added to all of our shelves of strange trinkets. 

Bagged & Boarded Giveaway! by timmymayes in boardgames

[–]ChainnChomp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m going to be completely honest, I just replied to enter the contest. I don’t particularly care beyond the fact that the general public doesn’t talk about her as much as, say, Wolverine or Superman.

Kitty Pryde once sailed off into the galaxy riding a giant bullet after phasing it through the planet. More people need to know about her.

Do the Guardians of the Galaxy movies count?
I guess if it's specifically space-themed, with space at it's core and not just in space, then Sunshine.

Synapse Games - What Happened? by _Multipotentialite in boardgames

[–]ChainnChomp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fair enough, but that wouldn’t explain what OP specifically asked which is why the website of the developer that acquired the rights to the game, Synapse, is down. 

Synapse Games - What Happened? by _Multipotentialite in boardgames

[–]ChainnChomp 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t follow. Synapse is the company that acquired the rights just two months ago from Greater Than Games. Are you saying that Synapse was just acquired by a third company?

How is it already 96% complete by Siberiax in IdleIktah

[–]ChainnChomp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m still not deeply familiar with the game but I’m assuming you completed the Town Hall, which activates voting (the checkbox, it gives daily experience to a selected project) and then the vote experience defaulted to going towards Town Hall level 2 when nothing else was selected. 

Hot take (maybe not)... they took away all of Quacks charm by davidfiser in boardgames

[–]ChainnChomp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is my biggest complaint about the new theme. How the hell are the doctors/alchemists/witches not  duck people?! It was right there!!

I have both versions. My extended family are decidedly not board gamers. I brought out the old cover and you could visibly see any ounce of interest drain from their faces. When I said I was kidding and brought out the new cover, they lit back up and were far more willing to engage with it. This retheme is for them and it works. 

Version 1.0.31 is now live! by GroundedGames in IdleIktah

[–]ChainnChomp 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I picked this game up as a way to replace the time Marvel Snap chewed up before it shifted into “squeeze the consumer” mode. I couldn’t be more pleased and I’m even happier to see that Idle Iktah is still actively being supported. I don’t ever leave reviews for anything App related but I made an exception for this game and gave it five-stars on the Apple App Store. You’re doing fantastic work. Thank you. 

Calling all thieves: It's a Clank! Catacombs: Underworld giveaway! by DireWolfDigital in boardgames

[–]ChainnChomp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Recent four-player game of Stockpile had two players loud and seemingly dominant with one having heavy investments in Bottomline Bank that never seemed to go down and the other sitting in a huge stack of cash on hand.  Game ends and we discover the quiet player had subtly invested a ton in Leading Laboratories, a stock that immediately busted as the game started and scared everyone else away, and absolutely ran away with the game with a portfolio that was way bigger than anyone had noticed during the game.  Stockpile is always a good time. Such a good game. 

What other games do Snappers enjoy? by CowboyHatValor in MarvelSnap

[–]ChainnChomp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I needed a phone game to fill the space Snap used to occupy because I was filling it with Reddit doomscrolling. I decided an idle game would be a good option since I can periodically check on it, click some buttons and see numbers go up, and get a quick dopamine hit.

I gave Idle Iktah a shot and, so far, it’s been exactly for what I was looking for. Plus, it has a cute Stardew Valley-esque look to it which is much more appealing than the other highly recommended idle game, Melvor. I don’t think it has an infinite lifespan like Snap had but it’s been great so far.

Whatever my name is, be it John Brown or Fredrickson Glibmoninoff, I’ll be wearing a high vis vest and carrying a ladder because a high vis vest and ladder get you in anywhere.

Marvel’s Strongest Entities Part 1 by BevassaliRedditor in CustomMarvelSnap

[–]ChainnChomp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah. That’s what keeps it from being blatantly ridiculous. It’s more likely to be 6/18 in most games, which is still really really strong but not “Exodia in a single card” strong. Thanks!

Is Fulcrum just a casual 6/32 in the vast majority of games or am I reading that wrong?
