" service between and is, like much of the US passenger rail system, underwhelming. [...] Soon, however, residents could see what’s really possible. Under the national rail carrier’s proposed 15-year, $75 billion expansion plan, Portland-to-Seattle service would be more than tripled to 13 trips a day." And this is even without any upgrades! https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-07-14/inside-amtrak-s-75-billion-plan-to-revive-us-train-travel

It's (asymptotically) done!

You can now play an early access version of our second earthquake game, Cascadia 9.1, free on the web:

https://peterdrake.itch.io/cascadia-91-internal-test

Please give it a try and tell us what's still confusing or broken.

(We're not looking for design ideas at this stage, but we might be when we start designing the third game in a matter of weeks.)

Stop what you are doing and behold! A ladybug in its larval state that I saw on a walk today!

The four PIs of our earthquake game project just spent two hours editing the dialogue for the second game.

... and by "editing" I mean "inserting fart jokes".

I just stumbled upon another local instance similar to our own, right "next door" in the called https://sanjuans.life. Hello over there @jeff, @LeeOnOrcas, et al.! I also appreciate this line in their description: "Local conversation, globally federated with the rest of the world." Nice concise explanation of the concept of a local server. I might steal that!

I don’t know about you folks, but when I see a baby duck hanging out with a turtle, I feel like the day has probably peaked.

Wesentlich weniger interaktiv als kommt das neue Spiel des Autors daher. Thematisch bleibt es aber auch bei bei Bäumen, die keine Punkte geben, wenn sie im Schatten anderer Bäume stehen. Gefällt mir wesentlich besser und hat mit den Drafting der Aktionskarten, die gleichzeitig die Endwertung beeinflussen, und dem Wandern der Sonne ein paar schöne Mechaniken, welche das Spiel zur anspruchsvollen Knobelaufgabe werden lassen. @Schmiddi @brettspiele

@JFG @Schmiddi @brettspiele eher Kennerspiel würde ich sagen, die Aktionen selbst sind überschaubar, aber für den Einstieg in das Hobby würde ich es definitiv nicht empfehlen. Zudem sollte man schon den Hang zu mehr oder weniger abstrakten Puzzlespielen haben. Also wer und bis zum Abwinken gespielt hat, könnte mit durchaus seinen Spaß haben.
