February 14, 2019 by cassn
Cass gets tortured by Ryan who, after a week off, is super excited to talk about the coolest new Indie game offerings around!
This week, Cass takes a look at TACTIKI, a two-player strategy game about elemental gods battling for dominance. Then, she gets excited about Trinity, a two-player travel game, suitable for any brave adventurer with an on-the-go gamer's itch.
Finally, she discusses a new documentary focusing on the people behind the products. The Game Designers follows some of the biggest names in the industry, alongside new blood, to explore the passion and the pitfalls in the design journey.
All this, and more, on this week's Indie Thursday!

I love Ryan’s obsession with historical games. It’s fun seeing him go off on an abstract tangent…
Prepare for an ancient board game essay into your inbox…
I’d love to see more travel sized games, I’ve got some pretty hefty boxes at home and it’s annoying to think I can’t play away from home.
That tactiki transition was LIT AF!!
I know it’s wargaming instead of boardgames, but ‘miniature wargaming : the movie’ is also worth mentioning

(disclaimer : I backed it on kickstarter)
the game designers may be worth a look.
Will Ryan appear on a flying carpet?
The indie Thursday budget will only cover magical linear transportation. So get ready for the necromantic choo choo train next time!
I believe that travel gaming right now in demand. At least, I can see it beyond my friends. They and I travel a lot. Our next trip to Telluride https://worldcams.tv/united-states/telluride/main-street will be in a fortnight and we are searching for decent travel table games.
Hello guys! Did you know that TacTiki is going to be relaunched on Kickstarter by Drawlab entertainment ?? (in October 2020).
