@ithayla.bsky.social Today's #SlayTheSpire2 daily run enabled this fun set up. (after I picked up the Mindblasts I took damage just once the rest of the run... basically every other level including Act 3 boss = one turn wins.)
today's Defect daily run in Slay the Spire 2... shows a hand with 3 Mindblasts - cards that do damage equal to the number of cards in the deck. My deck has 123 cards. It's a run that has relics that give you 3 copies of every card you add to the deck, and you start with a deck of 30 random cards... so when I picked up Mindblast on level 22 it meant I got 3 copies of it giving me 3 110+power attacks in hand at the beginning of every combat.

Excited The Loopler from @mheepdev.bsky.social dropped today. This weird little racing game is all about powering up your single car race... manage fuel, collect boost charms, pick bonus gates, then hit "go" and watch your wee car zoom zoom and get that arcade "ding ding" as points rack up. 🤗
video game screenshot with a figure 8 racetrack in the center with a teeny little racecar on it with 6 "gates" of various colors (benefits) staggered around it. There  is a fuel gauge in the lower right and a speedometer in the lower left. There are 3 power "cards" in the bottom center and along the left various "charms" that provide race benefits, a coin count, and round indicator. The top has the race goal progress bar.

An intrusive thought I had to try to get it out of my brain. #BoardGames #Carcassonne
Star Wars Carcassonne box next to Carcassonne Labyrinth box.
The Carcassonne Labyrinth board is in the center showing the board spaces full of Star Wars tiles. The black/nebula/neon yellow paths and various Star Wars icons contrast a lot against the traditional pastoral Carcassonne art of the board and permanent spaces.

It's the Reese's Cup of games. Two great things together! #CarcassonneLabyrinth is one of my favorites of the year. Quick and satisfying, the way you claim tiles, the importance of moving your meeple, the choice between pathing and the tile you take, closing off roads/cities, the treasures... YES.
The main Labyrinth board in the center of the table in which tiles can slide along rows and columns. The tiles look like Carcassonne tiles with various roads and cities on them. A meeple for each player is on a space on that board. In the foreground is my personal tableau made up of tiles. There are small tokens on a few of the tiles and the tiles are connected so that you can see roads joining and city edges joining. A personal stack of tiles is to the right with one of those tiles upright in a wood meeple designed to hold it.
