Play nicely with others here.
Discussion should be at least somewhat related to board games and all that entails.
Self-promotion is allowed within reason. Don't go overboard!

Oh shit. Spirit island being one of the huge famous games, didn't expect them to go down like this.

Really sad to see them disappear like this, they were a great bunch of people. When the nonprofit I help with reached out to them, they gifted us an almost complete set of spirit island with expansions.

Damn. They've put out some real bangers and still had to close? Didn't wanna know what things are gonna be like for smaller publishers soon :<

Wow. They have two very popular game series: Sentinels of the Multiverse and Spirit Island. Hopefully everyone who was at the company lands on their feet and the amazing games they put out can live on at another publisher.

I was trying to recall what I had from that company. Spirit island is a delightful game.
