Lots of new games have been announced this week, Z-Man Games has announced a preview of what they have at this year’s Gen Con, and check out a list of good two player games.
This month brings some really interesting Kickstarters, with deduction games and asymmetrical card games, and lots of great artwork, from lovely dog miniatures to Jane Austen characters.
From audience building and marketing skills, to game quality and accessibility, new project creators can learn a lot from giants like Exploding Kittens and Kingdom Death.
