Shameless plug: Root board game
A friend of mine made (another) board game. He's designed games before, but this one arrives as the culmination of moving across the country to take up game design full-time. If you enjoy thoughtful, asymmetric board games with cute art then have a look at the project on Kickstarter!

Looks interesting. Have you played it?
Posted by happygrue on 2017-10-25 00:35:48
I have not, though I have playtested some of his other stuff. We used to live near each other, not so much anymore. ;)

He's a pretty serious gamer so I expect good things from him. He wrote a few posts on bgg about the development, if you'd like to take a look.

Here's the origin story: https://boardgamegeek.com/thread/1864168/designer-diary-roots-root

Other "Designer Diary" posts going into some detail on the game are at the bgg page as well: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/237182/root

I am very tempted to KS pledge. Shame the stupid pund is so weak at the moment. :(

Aye, and the brexit-peso is only headed lower.

There is a draft rulebook available in the links section of the kickstarter (http://ledergames.com/files/Root-RulesforKickstarter.pdf), and a note indicating print and play "coming soon". It's possible we may be able to give it a try in the next few weeks.
