THANK YOU.

Pretty much it. In addition to wars and revolts, there are “peasant revolts”, which enable you to remove a tile from the board if you discard two blue tiles from your hand. Pagodas can be immediately replaced by discarding two green tiles likewise.

It’s been years since I played Tigris, but from what I recall of it this game has a lot more strategic options.

Also, Yellow & Yangtze has hexes rather than square spaces, which, as Civilization V has amply demonstrated, makes the game exactly 150% better than its predecessor.

I jest please don’t kill me.

I hadn’t noticed it at all!

From Hato Moa, who brought us Hatoful Boyfriend, and featuring the music of Masakazu Sugimori (Ace Attorney, Ghost Trick, Viewtiful Joe) comes picross investigation game Murder by Numbers:

Was Hatoful Boyfriend the pigeon dating sim?

Despite @Chappers support, I couldn’t even watch the promotion video to the end. Too much noise, both visual and aural.

Just saw this on my mac activity thread:

Anybody heard of it?

FWIW, there’s a report on the Steam forum that the screen shaking can be disabled.

Make Screen Shake Optional posts info regarding screen shake options, which will show up on the relevant Steam store pages if you follow the curator (the community group is here). I really hate screen shaking and contribute frequently.

2745

Ah, in truth I didn’t think screen shakes bothered me much (I thought there was lot of… pixely junk flying everywhere, making me confused), but the screen shakes probably didn’t help and I may claim I have issue with it because that’s one hell of cool sounding club to be part of!

Edit: I tried to find it in the Steam client using the curators search… and Valve won’t return it. Search engines are so rigged, everywhere…

I don’t want to rip the Galaxy a new wormhole.

Pilgrims – a little adventure game. I like the art style.
