GOOD NEWS FROM THE CITY

GOOD NEWS FROM THE CITY

Ice Manta Ray

Life in the City is back on track! Artifacts from the explorers have come to fill the various needs identified through the council’s requests. The Nourishers’ Guild is taking advantage of the end of the warm season to replenish their stocks of food. ( ⇞ ).


August 4th

⇞ The return of the great expedition also marked the end of the summer season and the first big storms were just around the corner. So the four of us left to finish the work of stockpiling resources. In short, it was a matter of taking advantage of this period of calm to break the ice and fish the last large specimens. We would then have to organize the manufacture of new material to be able to manage, cut and accommodate all these resources dedicated to the entire population. Not an easy task if we wanted to respect the deadlines.


Summer came and we plunged ourselves… not into vacation, as some might think, but into work!

  • Hugo and Samson in the deepening and the improvement of certain points of Game Design: system of points scoring and use of the cards requests, capacities of the last two guilds and balancing of the others, and finally finalization of the whole of the 12 edifices with their system of variation of gameplay.
  • Leonard in the final touches to the last ice sheet illustrations, in the creation of the various artifact variants and also in the creation of the first Edifices.
  • Alexis in the finalization of the iconography and graphic design of the Guilds and cards boards, as well as in the realization of the rules and Edifices booklet.
