Oh I was in Prague a couple of days ago, would have been nice to meet for a coffee but hopefully catch you in Essen.

I don't think that it is possible to register in advance, I think you go there in the morning to the booth and they have a sign-up sheet. Hope you get to try the game there, and maybe I'll even get to demo to you.

Yes, of course. Really enjoyed talking to you about Sankoré. Just drop me an e-mail. I should be available after SPIEL.

Oooh, now I get what happened! xD I only heard a bang and then just saw him suddenly hanging from the side of the table!

It's indeed an unusual metric, but probably also a uniquely significative one? : D

It was great having you there! I hope it happens again sometime : )

Co-design with @thedarkimp.bsky.social tested above. The man in the blue shirt leapt over the table to where I'm standing to grab a die and win the game. I had to catch him to soften the landing.

Not a metric I'd usually rely on, but it feels like a good sign for the game. Was a highlight for me.

Yes, that is all my co-designer, Denholm, to credit for that. Was a brilliant idea to start from.

That bear is just not capable of attacking anyone. Look at its little face.
