Re: Tokens and Cards I'm going to get or make to help ease play.

I also ordered everything but after trying to play solo, and then with two friends... I have put it away and haven't taken it out since. I'm down with using icons, but not as hieroglyphics. Such a cumbersome approach to game literacy presents a steep barrier to entry—especially when there are typos....

I am working on a version for the website but will be a few days away from completion. How quickly do you need it?
How is this coming? I have created a printer friendly version of the Quick Play (InDesign document)— with the caveat that I still need to add the icons to it.

Anyone in Seattle - Redmond - Woodinville

I have tried playing the Solo Adventures... but something just isn't clicking. Looking for other people to play with, learn from, etc.

Hieroglyphics! These posts make me wonder if the Egyptians weren't just gaming on the interior walls of the pyramids. :)

Re: Trained vs Expert

The inner stroke refers to the white/yellow line that is "inside" the solid black shape. White and Yellow are difficult to distinguish, especially when really small and involving a gradient from white to yellow, or white to light grey.
