TableTapas Games @tabletapasgames.bsky.social · 19hCan't describe the excitement of seeing photos of Stellar Ventures being played in the wild(posted with permission)!

TableTapas Games @tabletapasgames.bsky.social · 30/07/2026Playtesting Rocky Ventures! Feeling really good about the state of things, officially in fine dev mode. Card market, tableau and engine building, monster fights, on an economic backbone 041
TableTapas Games @tabletapasgames.bsky.social · 13/04/2026Moytura is a phenomenal 2p area control game from @trevormbenjamin.bsky.social and @djackthompson.bsky.social. It's not surprise the shared incentives were a selling point for us here at TableTapas 7286
TableTapas Games @tabletapasgames.bsky.social · 06/04/2026Had a wonderful day of gaming on Saturday. I love exploring these oldies Die Osteringel was amazing. What did you play? 020
TableTapas Games @tabletapasgames.bsky.social · 23/02/2026Battlefields of the Napoleonic Wars tonight with my friend from Chicago. Feels fitting the Knicks are playing Bulls ... 120
TableTapas Games @tabletapasgames.bsky.social · 19/02/2026Revisited Battlelore for the first time in a long time tonight. This game is good! I love when setup provides really interesting decisions that are fully a part of the game experience. 071

TableTapas Games @tabletapasgames.bsky.social · 27/01/2026Wow. Incredible day so far. We funded in 14 minutes! I wish we could be celebrating with Pontus in Sweden at his Stellar Ventures launch party! Next up: Live playthrough with @heavycardboard.bsky.social tonight at 7pm EST! www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Esv... 070
TableTapas Games @tabletapasgames.bsky.social · 27/01/20261 day! Less than 24 hours! Tomorrow at 10 AM EST, Kickstarter is live! www.kickstarter.com/projects/tab... Naturally, the final game in our countdown is Stellar Ventures. We were once told if you don't love your game enough to play it 100x, don't expect anyone to play it once. We love this game. 040
TableTapas Games @tabletapasgames.bsky.social · 25/01/20262 days until Stellar Ventures is live! Follow the project here: www.kickstarter.com/projects/tab... We love Arcs from @colewehrle.bsky.social and @buriedgiantstudios.bsky.social. Constant interaction, shifting incentives/alliances, big moments, room for clever play, and beautiful components. 191
TableTapas Games @tabletapasgames.bsky.social · 24/01/2026The countdown is at 3 days! Follow the campaign here www.kickstarter.com/projects/tab... Barrage was one game that Justin and I played a ton of together when we first started gaming. Shared infrastructure combined with all the tools players are given are two big reasons why we love it 010
TableTapas Games @tabletapasgames.bsky.social · 24/01/20264 days and officially into the last weekend before launch www.kickstarter.com/projects/tab... Of course we have a space themed game in the top 4! We love the shared infrastructure and variable end game in this one by @prismofeverything.bsky.social. Check out upcoming Organism by the same team! 020
TableTapas Games @tabletapasgames.bsky.social · 23/01/20265...more...days! Stellar Ventures on Kickstarter so soon. Follow here: www.kickstarter.com/projects/tab...

TableTapas Games @tabletapasgames.bsky.social · 22/01/2026Less than a week? 6 days til launch! www.kickstarter.com/projects/tab.. Lords of Vegas has been a top game for so long. I introduced it to Justin when he visited shortly after we started TableTapas Games, so it holds a special place in our hearts. Glad @lonesharkgames.bsky.social reprinted it! 030
TableTapas Games @tabletapasgames.bsky.social · 21/01/20267 days left. Officially within 1 week of launch! www.kickstarter.com/projects/tab... Today we celebrate 18xx. Stellar Ventures was surely inspired by this classic game series, particularly RUSTING. What a cool mechanism that provides layers of tension and opportunities for creative play. 140
TableTapas Games @tabletapasgames.bsky.social · 20/01/2026I forgot how much I love Indonesia. At least the first 2/3 of the game. The last 1/3 has so much admin, but the ideas in the game are just so cool and unique 030
TableTapas Games @tabletapasgames.bsky.social · 20/01/20268 days until we take off. Get notified when we go live next week: www.kickstarter.com/projects/tab... Can't get enough of Age of Steam. The symbiotic/parasitic relationship it creates among players and the re-playability across multiple maps. 130
TableTapas Games @tabletapasgames.bsky.social · 19/01/20269 days until launch! So let's celebrate some cube rails www.kickstarter.com/projects/tab...

TableTapas Games @tabletapasgames.bsky.social · 18/01/202610 days until launch! www.kickstarter.com/projects/tab... We love Root from @leder.games. So much interaction in such a short and sweet play time. 040

TableTapas Games @tabletapasgames.bsky.social · 30/11/2025Toy Battle is also 2p gaming perfection. Love the tension of this map too. Pulled off a comeback! 250
TableTapas Games @tabletapasgames.bsky.social · 29/11/2025With Stellar Ventures, we really wanted to evoke a pulp sci-fi feel, dig into the satire of the game with The Agreement, and pop on the shelf. It was also important for us to showcase the designer for his excellent work. And of course, shelf ergonomics! 020
TableTapas Games @tabletapasgames.bsky.social · 24/11/2025My haul? All Old German Games of course! Thanks to Battleground Games 010

TableTapas Games @tabletapasgames.bsky.social · 30/10/2025Playtesting the Borders & Taxes map for Stellar Ventures! We love this map - once players have a grasp of the core system, this map allows for even more levers and interesting play 141
TableTapas Games @tabletapasgames.bsky.social · 20/10/2025The last of my recent OG game acquisitions. Very excited to try this one. It was also in shrink! Blind bidding, speculation, and a player driven market manipulation. Keep the hidden gems coming! 010
TableTapas Games @tabletapasgames.bsky.social · 19/10/2025Played two very different games tonight: Das letzte paradies and Wiz-War. Both were wonderful times. Really need to explore DLP more, such a unique auction game 051
TableTapas Games @tabletapasgames.bsky.social · 16/10/2025A different kind of mail day this week compared to the latest hotness of last week (Old King's Crown). These were from two different purchases, and I am very excited to give these oldies a spin! 010
