Welp, I moved to Las Vegas earlier this year and hadn't heard any of the news about The Gaming Goat until reading this new OP. Ooooooof glad I haven't actually bought anything there yet.

Tragedy Looper may be my favorite game so Zendo sounds up my alley. Any other similar games that scratch that same sort of itch?

dishwasherlove posted:This sounds neat. Is it kinda like Captain Sonar? What's the overlap like with that? I haven't played Captain Sonar, but I am familiar with the rules. Hopefully someone who's played both can speak better about comparing them? Dice Duels, at least when I've played, almost always devolves into lots of screaming and panicking, in the best way possible. Each person is more or less doing their own thing, but have demands of one or two of the other players on their team, so there's lots of WHAT ARE YOU DOING, I NEED A FOUR only to replied with gently caress I JUST GAVE ALL THE DICE AWAY TO THE OTHER GUY and then the other team yells FIRE and everything grinds to a climactic halt as you somehow panicand hold your breath at the same time cus gently caress gently caress gently caress your shields are on the complete wrong side of the ship and one more hit is all it'll take to-oh, they fired their missiles in the opposite direction of your ship, lmao, then everyone starts screaming again

Any recommendations for games that, in rough order of importance: - Plays well at 2 players - Is decent for players inexperienced with board / card / tabletop games - Is mech themed I've got a buddy that's interested in getting into the hobby, but I don't currently have a local group for larger games so it'd be just the two of us. He's super into mech video games / anime so I figure that'd be a good theme to start with to get him excited, though I also recognize a lot of mech games tend to be super mechanically heavy and probably not a great thing to toss someone new into.

Hempuli posted:I didn't see either a thread for abstracts nor a thread for homebrew boardgames on the first two pages of this subforum, so I thought it'd be safe to post here: We actually do have a board game design thread! It doesn't see a wild amount of traffic, but it's active from time to time and always welcoming of new games.

Thanks for all the robo-recommendations! I've done a bit of googling and some of them definitely look appropriate, but happy to take more recommendations.El Fideo posted:Nobody's recommended AEGIS: Super Combining Robot Tactics yet? For Shame! This actually seems like it might be the best bet, though I haven't played it - so I'm happy to hear other opinions on it. The theme and combining mechanics are rad and seem like a lot of fun, but the combat itself seems like it might be a bit shallow?
