I wish every game had coins like these 😍 What are some good generic metal coins I can get that can be used in multiple games? I've seen lots of themed ones but I can't afford a different set for every game, as much as I'd love to!

I've also made some changes to the contents of the Quiver to take away with me on 'holiday', it now contains only 2 player games, some of which can also be played solo! #whatsinyourquiver @quivertime

Packing games to take with me on my 'staycation'. We're dog sitting at my parents house for a week and intend to play lots of games in between dog cuddles. These are the games I've chosen from the shelf of shame. Pandemic Legacy we have started but haven't played in a long time! And the little one on top is a new game to preview.

Got another D&D book 🙈 Tales from the Yawning Portal to read on holiday and get inspired for my campaign! I'm not planning on running the stories straight out of the book but I may borrow some encounters or traps that I like and work them into my own dungeons instead. The maps are pretty impressive and some of these dungeons look like they would take months to complete! Oh and some new monsters is always fun 😉 (Dice shown are the Yasha and Caleb dice palettes from @mintandmustard)

These dice are a little kinder 😉 well at the very least you can change some of the rolls. Roll Player is probably my favourite dice game! 🎲 I think I might need to take a look at the expansion 🤔

These dice hate us 😔 I really enjoy One Deck Dungeon but boy if the dice are not in your side it can go wrong quick!

On the blog today is the start of a new series, D&D 101, aimed at those who want to start playing D&D. I want to help people feel less overwhelmed by it all cos I know I regret putting it off for years! The first post is a look behind the DM screen, link in my bio via linktree if you're interested in how I organise everything. Next post is on how to get started/find players! If you're new to D&D or interested in playing/DMing, let me know if there's anything you'd like me to cover in the series! (If you're one of my players, don't read, let's keeps some of the mystery alive 😉)

Meeples. I'm talking about meeples! Get your mind out of the gutter 😉 I'm such a child but this amuses me greatly 😂 New design for euro gamers in the shop available as a mug or t-shirt in men and women's styles! Link in bio via linktree

Daniel shouldn't be allowed to buy games without my approval... Mad Science Foundation arrived yesterday and I'd never even heard of it! We gave it a go but I wasn't a fan. It has a similar mechanic to Castle of Mad King Ludwig where you have to group resources but everyone else gets to pick first so you're supposed to make it a good deal for them so they don't take the group you want. But no matter what I do I always end up losing the thing I want! Just like I always lose the rooms in CoMKL! I'm just bad at that kind of thing apparently 😂 Daniel is determined it will be better with more than 2p as the minions didn't feel like they were being used to their full potential so I'll give it another go at some point. I will say I like the artwork. Anyone else tried this one? Is it just me that's bad at guessing what people want?!
