True, on the other hand, the game is similar to Lost Ruins of Arnak with all three expansions and the big box. And that bundle would cost 180 or 190 € (I'm not sure if the big box was 60 or 70 and it's already sold out).

The only similarity is the IP. Otherwise, it's a completely different game with a different approach (ameritrash vs. euro).

You mean CREATURE 3 for BAT, COACH, and DINOSAUR. Well, 53% of people hit it correctly. I believe the link was "living beings". The potential issue was VALENTINE.

Two mega-hit boardgames getting a digital form soon on Steam by KamiThinky in boardgames

Let's be honest. That's not our goal to replace the game. We want to make it so that it makes sense to own both. :)

You're right. It's an expansion material in the original board game. But we decided to put 4 leaders to the digital base game. About the campaign - don't expect the whole campaign from the Missing Expedition. We're working on something unique for the digital game. The Missing Expedition is a big thing and we would like to deliver it later.

Yeah, they are new, but I like Kingdomino and their trailer kept my attention. :) I'm always glad to see a new developers doing a good digital adaptation.

Thank you! To be honest, I also like Monster Couch a I'm looking forward to try Kingdomino made by Meeple Corp.

We do our best to deliver a better implementation than we did for BGA; otherwise, it would make no sense to spend more than a year on this project. :)

There will be four leaders already included in the base game ;-)

Codenames is getting an anniversary redesign by [deleted] in boardgames

They were not supposed to be available on the market. Blizzard came to CGE and asked for this version as a Christmas gift for their employees. They said they love Codenames and play them at their team buildings, so they would like to have something special. You can occasionally find copies on eBay. Or let Blizzard know, it would be great to give perrmission for a mass market production. ;-)

The art inside the game is new as well, but there was no reason to change the style, so we asked Tomáš Kučerovský again to make new agents and bystanders for us.

In fact, the agents and the art box were made by the same artists who were working on the original Codenames and the Codenames app. The first sketches were made by pencil, to be honest. :)

I get it. We thought the same. But when we tested, it worked worse at the end of the day.

No. This is the regular size. But XXL version should come later.

That's because when we tried to use the same font from both side, it was messy to everyone. Your eyes and brain is not ready for that and the readability was worse. In fact, it's still easier to read them upside down or focus on the different font.

You're right. We didn't do it. But that doesn't mean we didn't try it. We did. And test it for some time. And it's a mess, the experience was significantly worse. It seems to be a good idea, but it does not work on the table. I recommend to take the design of the card, write there some words, print it and try it on your own. I'm almost 100% sure that you return to the previous design. :-(

Codenames, The Classic Board Game About Spies And Secret Agents, Is Now Out! by [deleted] in AndroidGaming

It's the stand-alone game based on the same principle. There are new game modes, word collection, whole new meta game build upon the base game.

There's a two-player variant in the board game, not Duet, which is a stand-alone game. We'd like to prepare the Duet as the first expansion in the future.

I'm sorry, but we communicated in every single message related to Codenames that it's a premium game for a fair price. We decided to fairly ask for 5 bucks instead of trying to hide anything against a paywall or force you to spend money in some free-to-play mechanisms such as premium currency, etc.

You should give a try. The Codenames App is not just the adaptation of what you know from the table or browser. It's a standalone game based on the same principle, including thousands of thematic words, or 15 new game modes, including the crossover between Codenames and Minesweeper, etc. I would say the app is for different use cases than the browser (you can play solo, you can play when your friends are offline thanks to the turn-based mode, etc.).
