El jueves pillé un par de ricas ofertas que llegaron ayer y anoche ya estrené una de ellas, Beacon Patrol, en solitario. Un puzle majete que creo que jugaré bastante y que probaré pronto con más gente. Además es muy vistoso y cuco.

Don't forget to check out the new digital version of the tile-placement boardgame Beacon Patrol!
Chart the coastline with friends in the new digital version of the puzzly boardgame Beacon Patrol · Thinky Games
Beacon Patrol is a charming and challenging tile-placement boardgame, one of my favorite co-operative games from the past few years. With its new Steam release you can work together digitally to maneuver your coast guard ships and map the islands of the North Sea.

Beacon Patrol – Review

Seagulls, turn-based tactics, and the open sea make for a compelling co-op digital board game adaptation.

In today's video I go over my approach in designing print and play games for Postmark games, the lessons we've learnt and what we aim to do for all our future releases. Also useful ideas if you want to design your own roll and write games!
