    TOKENCON – DAY 2

    Day 1 of TokenCon was MUCh busier than we expected – we demoed Bubble Net all day, then we did a Game Jam and played some games!

  • TOKENCON 2023 – getting there

    TOKENCON 2023 – getting there

    We had a tough choice – there were several other conventions on at the same time as TokenCon 2023, but the idea of a small convention where we could practice our setup and have a quiet first booth won out in the end – and we were glad that it did, even if it wasn’t…

    Tabletop Network/BGG.CON 2022 – 4

    Day 4 of our TTN/BGG adventure is day 1 of the actual BGG convention. I had no idea what to expect, so I was very glad to already have a posse of friends and connections from TTN to keep me from wandering the corridors, aimless and alone, haha.
