Joining in & bringing 🍩😉

Hi #PoCInPlay Raven here! I’m African American, a new #boardgame designer, and a recipient of the 2020 @IGDN_Official sponsorship. Food & food culture are big parts of my life & designs. This tag & community bring me so much joy♥️

@Boardgamefeast Glazed! Used to prefer cream cheese frosting, but confectioners sugar based is pretty good too

When you walk into the Student Union and discover your college not only has a board game club but it’s meeting now

@gamesformusic Making progress! Actually just met with my co-designer, @_RavenMckenzie, yesterday. We made some changes that hopefully carve away some of the tedious, uninteresting aspects of the game and help focus on the fun!

[Clarence Simpson ➡️ Bsky @StoicHamster]

So excited that the long wait to talk about this co-design with @BoardGameGhee is finally over! The Wolves is coming to your tables this October. And if you happen to be going to Essen, you can grab it early there at the show. Did I mention it looks gorgeous! 😍😍😍

I unfortunately won't be attending GenCon this year. I do, however, want to take this time to start talking about my next game coming to Kickstarter early next year: Let's Go to Japan! (1/3)

I have incredibly bad brain fog from COVID, BUT I did put together a guest post! This one features some amazing designers talking about how they start their game designs!

@BeardedRogue More than 2,500 miles! I get why some people stay close to where they grew up but it’s def. not for me

@GameMinimalist It’s such a classic! I’ve got two expansions and doubt I’ll ever acquire more. Still enjoy playing it every now and then

@GuenevereCW If Sam hadn’t split it with me I probably would have left it behind for the same reason 🤣 Not getting anything else until at least one is finished!

In Michigan this weekend w/ Sam visiting his family! Walked around downtown and couldn’t resist this craft project 💐☕️🐶
