Game Thoughts: Legacy of Yu (2023)

Legacy campaign games are hard. They are SUCH a commitment and most of these games require a lot of set up time, tracking end-game states and a dedicated friends groups to get through. So what I am saying is, there was no way I thought I would ever play all the way through a campaign game. BUT all of those barriers fell away with Legacy of Yu. Designed by Shem Phillips and published by Garphill…

I am new to the Circadians universe and First Light is the first game I have played from it. Circadians First Light is worker placement game where players will be trading, farming, building, and researching to game points throughout the game. The game itself is set in the Circadians universe and in this game you play as the Circadians researchers. Who are light years from their home planet and have discovered an ancient celestial body with multiple different humanoid lifeforms on it. Each of these races have made use of different parts on the planet and have access to different resources. Your goal is to negotiate and trade with these different races and also collect organic samples. The person who does this best will win the game. The game plays over eight rounds and the player who has scored the most points at the end from negotiating with the locals, harvesting resources for the depository, upgrading their research base, exploring the planet, and collecting gems. Game Info Circadians First Light 1-4 Players 60-90 Min Playtime Designer: S J Macdonald Artist: Sam Phillips Publisher: Garphill Games Thoughts: Overall a really well designed engaging worker placement game with great components. I really enjoyed my plays of the game and thought that the game played fluidly. It was also relatively easy to teach. I also felt that there were many valid paths to victory which I feel is very important for worker placement games. The discussions also felt interesting and I was somewhat interested in the opponents turns. Mainly if they may take a space or bonus I wanted or a negative effect I was trying to avoid. I think this is a solid worker placement game and worth trying out. #tabletopgamingguild #boardgames #tabletopgames #bgg #boardgame #tabletopgame #modernboardgames #epicboardgames #boardgamepodcast #podcast #tabletopgamespodcast #epicgamenight #boardgamenight #boardgamesarefun #boardgamegeek #boardgameaddict #boardgamer #boardgamesofinstagram #boardgamephotos #boardgameswithfamily #boardgamesarefun #boardgamephotography #iloveboardgames #boardgameaddicts #boardgamesrock #playmoregames https://www.instagram.com/p/Cl9NzIhSIDY/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

We were a band of feared Viking warriors of Borg on the Lofoten islands. Our chieftain had tasked us with assembling a cunning and mighty crew, collecting provisions and journeying north to plunder gold, iron and livestock from foreign lands. We would find glory in battle and the Valkyrie would lead the fallen to Odin's Valhalla. We were the ⁠Raiders of the North Sea⁠ by Shem Phillips from ⁠Renegade Games Studios⁠.

Not disappointed at all! After #raidersofthenorthsea, I had high expectations. Worker placement game at it's best. Beautiful art and thematic game play. Loved it! - - - - - - - - - - - - #game #games #gaming #tabletop #tabletopgames #tabletopgaming #boardgame #boardgaming #boardgamesofinstagram #boardganegeek #boardgameaddict #bgg #architectsofthewestkingdom #architectsofthewestkingdomboardgame #architectsboardgame #garphill #garphillgames https://www.instagram.com/p/B2xn4iYBamV/?igshid=1t6fa4ena7s7k

First proper post in a while, mainly because I’ve been so flat out busy working on a lot of illustration work for a new board game coming out this year by @garphillgames. Here’s a sneak peak. It’s been so fun to work on and I’m excited for you all to see it. #samphillipsillustration #garphill #garphillgames #boardgames #boardgame #samphillips #warriors #illustration #characterdesign https://www.instagram.com/p/B7aO4nzlYy3/?igshid=1brcae65vx3sn

Reading the description of Ezra & Nehemiah when it first hit Kickstarter, I was intrigued. If you read this blog for more than just one or two posts, you know I’m a huge fan of Garphill Games and the games designed by Shem Phillips and SJ MacDonald. While I have enjoyed pretty much every “trilogy” game, I haven’t played many of their other games, including any of the “Ancients” line of games…
