Tabletop Network/BGG.CON 2022 – 5
Day 5 of our TTN/BGG adventure is day 2 of the actual BGG convention.

Drayer, Ink-troduction
This blog will take you through the process we went through to get the Valley from its inception to however we decide to publish, as well as the ever-increasing number of other games that keep insisting on being extruded from my brain, and it will also give you glimpses into the life of a game-designer couple.
