Re: last boost, Neon Hope is a #cyberpunk meets #solarpunk narrative card game that's currently on Kickstarter. It can be played solo, and reminds me of #SleepingGods! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/hopefulgames/neon-hope-cyberpunk-meets-solarpunk

Playing through the introduction scenario of the #SleepingGods #boardgame

An image showing the layout of the various tokens, cards and characters and atlas of the boardgame Sleeping Gods.

In Teil 118 dieses Fadens berichtete ich von "Sleeping Gods" und wie begeistert ich von diesem #Brettspiel bin.

Nun kam "Sleeping Gods - Primeval Peril" auf den Tisch. Es eignet sich super für Einsteiger.innen in die Welt von #SleepingGods. Kleinere Karte, nur 5 Charaktere sowie eine kürzere Spieldauer.

Die Texte sind (wieder) gut geschrieben. Es ist schön, durch den Dschungel zu reisen und Aufgaben zu erfüllen. Außerdem: handlichere Größe.

Für 1-2 Spielende ab 13 Jahren.

Die Verpackungsvorderseite von "Primeval Peril". Zu sehen ist ein weißes Schiff auf eine Fluss, im Hintergrund Dschungel.

Drei Zombiesoldaten-Karten nebeneinander. Auf ihnen blaue Dreiecke. Hier findet gerade ein Kampf statt.

Auf dem Tisch liegen die Charakterkarten, das aufgeschlagene Buch mit einer Route durch den Dschungel, diverse Karten und Spielmaterialien. Alles sehr bunt.

Nearing the end of my Sleeping Gods: Distant Skies campaign. Going to miss it, but gosh am I also ready to move on after nearing 40 hours in this world.

Started playing Sleeping Gods with my wife and having a blast. We almost died twice. But we also have a dog now. So things are pretty good.

Shot of a table full with board game material. There's a map in the background and lots of tokens and character cards.

@nazebroque j'adore #SleepingGods hélas pas assez de temps ni de régularité pour suivre son déroulement... Narration impeccable

I still really liked the game. I even liked the idea of being able to fail forward - if you don't manage a challenge you still get to go on, you just get some sort of penalty or malus. But not the boss battle. There's already a mechanism in boardgames for getting past bosses who are too hard - it's called cheating. Has worked like a charm for decades... #boardgames #sleepinggods

#sleepinggods The story begins with you being thrown into a different world and hello, there's a lady sitting on a rock in the ocean who conveniently explains exactly what you need to do. Ahem, okay. Then you wander around + collect totems until the lady shows up again and essentially says: time up, boss fight! You lost? Try again! Lost again? Try one more time. You still lost? Ah whatever, just continue on with the story anyway. How much more meaningless can a boss battle feel? #boardgames

Acht Stunden später haben wir die zweite Kampagne von #SleepingGods beendet. Mit dem (für uns) bestmöglichen Ergebnis: Wir sind zurück in NYC 😊
Ich liebe dieses #Spiel so sehr!

Eight hours later, we have finished the second campaign of Sleeping Gods. With the best possible outcome (for us): we're back in NYC 😊
I love this #game so much!
#Boardgames

Ein Tisch voll Spielmaterial. Es ist sehr, sehr viel 😁 ~~~ A table filled with Stuff that's needed for the game. It is A LOT 😁

Wenn der Rest des Jahres so weiter geht wie der Januar, wird das ein richtig schön verspieltes Jahr. 😄 Ein zweiter Anlauf bei #EarthborneRangers gestartet (schon sehr in Vorfreude auf die kommende Erweiterung) , #Scythe Fenris-Kampagne gespielt (leider enttäuschend) und nun mittendrin bei #SleepingGods den Weg nach Hause suchen (gefällt sehr soweit). Zwischendurch noch Seichtes und Komplexeres für Groß und Klein. Läuft. 😎 #brettspiele #boardgames #bgstats

Played the first session of "Sleeping Gods" tonight, and it's great. Very well written, beautifully illustrated, and the game mechanics are solid and fun. Plus wonderful world-building. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐/5 #boardGames #sleepingGods

I just finished my first playthrough of #SleepingGods: Distant Skies! I've been playing it for about a month now, in one or two-hour chunks, and I was both ready to be done and sad that I didn't visit all the locations I unlocked or finish all the quests in my hand (although I did manage to finish about half of the more than 200 available). If you like CRPGs but don't want to stare at a screen (and have the space to leave this table hog set up), then I recommend seeking it out!

Re: last boost, I'm interested in playing War Story: Occupied France (https://www.ospreypublishing.com/uk/osprey-blog/2024/announcing-war-story-occupied-france), a "choose-your-own-adventure board game" with tactical combat, as that sounds not totally unlike #SleepingGods: Distant Skies, which I've been enjoying these past few weeks.

Und Kampagne 2 beginnt 😀
And campaign no. 2 kicks off 😀
#Brettspiele #Boardgames #SleepingGods 😍

Karten und tokens und eine Landkarte und ein Buch. Alles herrlich bunt. ~~~ Cards, tokens, a map and a book. All wonderfully colourful.

And then the Collector's Edition of #SleepingGods found its way to us. What a game!

We are the international crew of the Manticore, crossing the oceans in order to awake the aforementioned Gods. Or do we?

We have to take care of the ship, fight creatures, explore islands, trade, solve quests etc. Comes with app, but its use is not mandatory.

So much to do, so many components, so much fun! The 1st campagne took us ~16 hrs. Replayable! 👍

1+ player(s), ages 14+.

The boxes for Sleeping Gods, Sleeping Gods Distant Skies and Sleeping Gods Primeval Peril.

The Ship Action tableau. One can see the Manticore, tokens for food and money plus several cards. Everything is very colourful and bright. One of the reasons why I like this game so much.

Character tableau of Gregory Little, the crew's doctor.

The combat system is also really interesting. Each enemy has a card with a grid of locations with icons (health, damage, end-of-turn effects, etc.) Deal damage to all health locations to kill it, but hit a damage location to make it do less damage, etc.
You can assign your hits across the grid (adjacent, but not diagonally), you can even go across to the next enemy (splash damage).
Looking forward to exploring how this develops over a campaign! #boardgames #sleepinggods

Image from the Rules booklet, showing 2 enemy cards with their grids of locations/icons

But what I really do like is the idea of getting keywords through quests. When you explore a location you look up its number in the story book and depending on what keywords you have you get to take different decisions/paths.

After hearing so many good things about Sleeping Gods, we played our first little bit today. Very promising! Although I have to say I was not blown away by the intro bit. For a game that's lauded for it's storytelling the first contact was pretty shallow. There's a storm and you end up in a different world where the first thing you see is a woman sitting on a rock, conveniently explaining exactly what you need to do? Oh come on, put in some effort! 😆 #boardgames #sleepinggods
