Boring card games got you down? Sick of the same old “pick a card, play a card” with nothing else going on? Then maybe it’s time to change things up with Change Up! In this preview I’ll introduce you to this memory-driven card game and take you through a few first impressions.
Let’s check it out!

First-look takes at games going to Kickstarter/Gamefound or general prototypes before the game’s final production.
Although I am considering getting a sweet dice tattoo … but I digress.
Hey Gamers! So, if you know one thing about me, it’s that I love roll and write games – remember? So I was pretty excited to check out the 10-game roll and write anthology from Inkwell Games called Dice & Ink Volume 1.
In this preview, I’ll give you just a few first impressions on the four games I looked at. Please keep in mind that I have print-and-play/prototype versions, so not everything is final from the pictures to possibly even some of the rules. But without further ado, let’s check them out!
And … ACTION! Oh, come on! You’ve got to be ready to make a movie at a moment’s notice. That is, unless you don’t want to keep your new director job … is that the case? I thought not.
In this preview of That’s a Wrap, I take a look at a prototype of the Hollywood bidding game and give you the details along with some of my initial thoughts. Ready to check it out? Then it’s like I said – ACTION!
If you didn’t know anything about farming rice paddies before … well, you probably still won’t after this game. I mean, it’s not a teaching tool. BUT it sure is fun! With only 18 double-sided cards, players take on the role of Cambodian farmers expanding their rice paddies to produce bountiful harvests. While light, quick, and simple, this wallet-sized game packs a punch with variety and strategy. Let’s take a look!

As in, babies punching each other (because they’re small boxers) … not the act of punching babies. Please DO NOT punch babies, kthanks!
Now that that’s out of the way – let’s talk about this one! If you’re into wacky themes and quick card games, then you might want to settle in for a bit and take a look at Punching Babies. All in good fun, this 2-player, turn-based card game simulates 2 heavyweight babies fighting for the gold! Or … the belt? Or … whatever heavyweight fighters might fight for!
In this preview I take a look at a prototype of the card game, and highlight its beginnings. Please keep in mind that some things you see/read may change from my copy to the final version (in fact, I know a few things have already been worked on!) Without further ado, let’s take a look!
