with Google's assault on Invidious leaving it inoperable, consider watching this video with FreeTube, a nifty open source program that lets you watch youtube videos privately!

Combined with Libredirect, which automatically opens youtube links in Freetube, it becomes really slick and effortless to use.

For Mobile, consider giving FluxTube a try.

Rather relevant. I had no idea 'Monopoly' had an anti-capitalist predecessor.

I wanted to come in and ask everyone about what their favorite ecological themed games were. I'm also looking to know what Solarpunk games are around, any good ones?

My favorite ecological game is Wingspan. Which is just this great chill engine builder game that manages to feel different for me each time I play. Like a new puzzle to solve. You play it in competition with others but it often feels more like you're playing together rather in direct interference, though there are ways to interact because of the shared resources, most of the interactions are positive because of cards you play benefiting other players too. I've actually still had fun playing alone because of their automa rules.

The aesthetics and theme involves you being the conservator of land trying to attract birds to nest there.

Anyways I just wanted to gush more about Wingspan because I feel more people should try it out. Most other games in the same mechanics category are much more complicated and strategies are harder to see, once you understand the turn order and resources in Wingspan it's a pretty smooth experience.

Hello /c/[email protected],

It looks like this community is needing a little bit of love and I thought I might be able to help as a moderator.

I'm Lariedos, and though I'm a professional video game designer by trade, I've also got a background in tabletop game design. I Kickstarted and published a tabletop roleplaying game a few years back and I've got a bunch of prototypes waiting in the wings. I am passionate for finding that sweet spot where mechanics and narrative support each other to one cohesive experience.

I'm hoping to leverage some of my skills to help folks with their projects and build a supportive community of tabletop development as well. Engaging here might encourage me to develop my prototypes more. Maybe we'll also come up with some neat solarpunk or ecological themed projects out it.

My favorite boardgames are: Splendor, Wingspan, Mysterium, Bang!, and the classic card game President

My favorite classic table games are (I'm bad at them, but enjoy them and their mechanics): Go, Poker, and Riichi Mahjong

Hello, I am looking for any games that would last a long time (collapse perhaps- so not have pieces made of cardboard etc), not rely on technology/electricity, and not be too heavy or difficult to carry. Any and all suggestions welcome! TIA!

Build the Future

Solarpunk Futures is a storytelling game where players imagine the pathways to a desirable world from the perspective of a utopian future. Players use a deck of cards to remember Ancestors and work together using Tools and Values to overcome a set of real-world Challenges. Through dialogue and collaborative worldbuilding, collective and visionary narratives emerge of a new society, along with plausible scenarios for how to get there.
