NOTE: Carla of Weird Giraffe Games is a member of The Indie Game Report. While my opinion remains unbiased regardless of her TIGR membership, I just want to let you know 😉 In episode 71, I’m sharing a game with you coming to Kickstarter this month, Fire in the Library from Weird Giraffe Games, designed by Tony Miller and John Prather.

In my 70th review, I share my thoughts on the single-player game Quest: Awakening of Melior from Silent Se7en Games.
Don’t panic. Benny’s back with another installment of Therapeutic Meeples. This time, it’s about panic attacks.
In episode 69 I take a look at a game set called Monster Dice by Brian Edwards. Monster Dice comes with carved dice which look like monsters, and candy cards. Using these components, players can choose to play an array of games, including the two I show you in this video, Candy Grab and Sugar Rush.
I’ve had a chance to play Ancient Artifacts in several iterations. In its present (and near final state), Ancient Artifacts is a roll and write game about searching for hidden treasure by accessing abilities through dice placement and push your luck rolling.
In episode 61, we head to the roaring 20’s and 30’s to sneak past the police and gather up moonshine in the press your luck game Moonshine Run from Games by a Madman or Two!

Sea of Clouds from Iello and designed by Théo Rivière is an extremely clever game. I picked it up for the theme, being completely honest, I love the notion of sky pirates and grand adventures. Plus the art is stunning on the box and really fun on the cards.
In the second digging-themed game of the week, Fairway plumbs the depths of DIG A two- to four-player card game about unearthing gems and gold and avoiding the baddies.  Find out if Fairway hits a rich vein of gaming goodness or if this game caves in.  Dig is on Kickstarter until April 16, 2017.
