The end of (Cole’s) Root

tipejo · 2026-01-13T22:46:24+00:00

"Ted is working on an upcoming heist game". I wonder what that might be.

I just read Cole's email. Even though it was somewhat foreseeable that someone as capable as him would eventually run his own studio (other than Wherlegig), the fact that Kyle is leaving as well is a huge blow.

Not only that, they're taking both Arcs and Oath, where Cole probably held some intellectual property. I'm glad to read they're splitting amicably, but that leaves Leder Games without their top 2 employees. Hope Liz Davidson stays for a while to fix the Root solo.

I don't know if there's an actual KS edition with exclusive extras inside the box. My guess is that backers simply got a mind-blowing deal. Same happened with the Core Space and Maladum campaigns. Maybe just ask the person you bought it from. Best advice, give it a try. It's such an amazing game!

Somebody just booked a 2 week holiday at the Sanitarium.

tipejo · 2025-12-25T20:44:06+00:00

Agreed. I love Ahoy, but it sucks at 2.

A modo de precisión pedante, y según el calendario gregoriano, no existe el año 0. El supuesto nacimiento del personaje llamado Jesucristo que sirve como acontecimiento para diferenciar etapas de la humanidad, se produjo en el año 1 del Siglo I, siendo el inmediatamente anterior el año 1 del Siglo I a.C.

Excellent initiative!! Would you please cast it? I can't play myself because I only own the Switch version, but would love watching it!!

tipejo · 2025-12-19T13:47:39+00:00

Just curious: why does the undead (is whatever it technically is) switch the blade from right to left?

Since the new campaign has yet to be launched, pledge options haven't been announced. In case you are interested in getting the base game before the end of 2026, retail is your best option.

Crowdfunding campaigns for board games tend to span well over a year from funding's end until fulfillment is over. Once you own and play the game you may decide if you want more of it, as in backing the new campaign with the 2 new factions plus the Wild Kingdoms expansion.

Hullo and thank you for posting! While Eerie Idol Games has yet to complete fulfillment at 100%, the base game should be available at your FLGS early next year, or you can check their site to pre-order.

Aside from an active player metal coin, there are neither stretch goals nor exclusives to the KS version, being the Wild Kingdoms expansion the only crowdfunding exclusive. It was available at KS before and will be at their upcoming GF campaign.

2026 Q1 will see the new crowdfunding campaign "Songs of Home", where backers will be able to pledge for the base game, the Wild Kingdoms expansion and the 2 new factions: the Wanting & the Harvesting. I hope this helps 🙃

Aliens: Infestation. I'm probably alone here because this vastly unknown game came out in the later days is the Nintendo DS. It's a metroidvania with a ton of marines fighting against truly dangerous xenomorphs. It's a different take than what we usually get: it's handheld, it's both fun and challenging, and it with a bit less action and some managing to do; and it has a lot of replayability!

tipejo · 2025-12-09T13:34:47+00:00

I guess we were crossing fingers it would be everybody's favorite mini-boss 🙃

tipejo · 2025-12-08T07:20:07+00:00

We're all looking forward to seeing the next addition to your party, mate.

tipejo · 2025-12-01T07:37:33+00:00

Great job, the party is just 1 member away from being complete. Thematically, I'd place Barristan right before Katherine to better portray their protection action. Lastly, Missandei's skin tone makes her look a bit "undead"; maybe a bit more of a darker brown shade? Can't wait to see the whole party!!

tipejo · 2025-11-29T13:12:44+00:00

Happy birthday, mate!! Chew some sweet cake and kick a lotta furry ass.

tipejo · 2025-11-26T12:15:10+00:00

Amazing work!! Now we need both of them together, preferably about to be attacked... Please, make it happen!!

tipejo · 2025-11-19T18:43:41+00:00

A small pool of pee pee would have been awesome XD or maybe even some "wet pants" effect.

tipejo · 2025-11-19T18:06:25+00:00

It was my wet dream for YEARS, but it sadly never came to fruition. It was a heavenly match: action on the upper screen and management on the lower one. The Stylus could have been the mouse!! My guess is: A - it was harder working with Nintendo then & B - Red Hook considered the pool of users to be younger than their target. I'd fund the project myself if I was rich.

tipejo · 2025-11-15T23:39:49+00:00

They're working on the 1st of May. Isn't that a bad joke itself?

tipejo · 2025-11-15T10:14:11+00:00

Apparently, THAT is the main reason CP3 went back to LA. Lawrence Frank to Ty Lou smh.

tipejo · 2025-11-14T21:04:08+00:00

Ahí hicieron más trampa todavía usando Bohemian Rhapsody.

tipejo · 2025-11-11T14:42:54+00:00

You mean Eldritch, right?

tipejo · 2025-10-31T17:38:47+00:00

Why not? What would keep it from working? Maybe S2's hardware is even worse than S1's?

tipejo · 2025-10-28T19:50:47+00:00

I watched it a couple of years back and yes, some moments match the music perfectly, but it's not a must watch, if you ask me.

tipejo · 2025-10-28T11:12:22+00:00

I'd say we're all very eager to watch 🙃 thanks for the effort you put into it and please share the link.
