Can you believe its that time of year again? the festive season is upon us and the Meeple Minded boys are set to spend the season with their families.
2024 has been a very testing year in Meeple Minded HQ and i feel the back of 2024 will be a welcome sight for some, but as we go out of the year trying to smile we talk about the games we hope to get to the table this festive season.

    Hello Meeple Minded. Thanks for the review. You explained it very well. I would have loved to make the acrylic pieces but that would have skyrocketed the initial production price (making the molds) and with what I got in the kickstarter campaign it was unfeasible. The production cost of 1500 units, as I did, is not the same as making 10,000 (within the reach of the big publishers) AlienS games is a very small publisher, it's just me trying to get my own games out there. ;-) Best regards

      That's awful :/ hate it when it becomes available to the public before the loyal backers receive there copies. Jason has a copy of theme park mania that hasn't been fulfilled, yet it's also for sale at essen spiel.

    • @jenniferEdwards-cox

      Yeah. Same with Rebirth and Hamlet by the Lake! It does put you off backing games. Enjoy Day2!

    • @Simon_BoardStupid
      @Simon_BoardStupid 2 місяці тому

      If it helps, it's only retail editions of Rebirth available at Essen (& pickup of KS edition as advertised). I understand the frustration but publishers would be mad to not sell at the biggest game show in the world

    • @jenniferEdwards-cox
      @jenniferEdwards-cox 2 місяці тому

      Ah for the cost of a plane ticket to Germany, I could have saved myself the wait and postage costs! Joking aside I understand that publishers want to sell their new games at Essen and other conventions. Hamlet by the Lake is running 3 months late, so that doesn’t help. Seeing the game you backed (and paid for) for sale years/months before you have the same game delivered to your door leaves a bad taste; Spirit Island’s latest expansion was in store 9 months before backers in the UK had their copies due to VAT and shipping issues. It does all feed into whether it is worth backing some kickstarter projects or whether it is better to just skip the shiny bits and buy the retail version.

    • @Simon_BoardStupid
      @Simon_BoardStupid 2 місяці тому

      @@jenniferEdwards-cox I can't argue with that, the crowdfunding timelines can get really bad (particularly for us in the UK). Some publishers go out of their way to ensure backers always get theirs first, others aren't so careful. I mostly go retail for that reason, though it is nice to help get a smaller game created

    I agree that there are no real negatives in this game. I love all modules so I wouldn't have left them out from the base game (to lower the price) as suggested.

    • @meepleminded9508
      @meepleminded9508 Рік тому

      Hey Max, thanks for your comments. I mean the fact the modules are included is pretty cool. The only reason I (Jason) mentioned I'd maybe of not included them is purely and simply on a finance front. With people wanting to spend less on their games it just provides that option, conversely I never really mentioned on recording but the business side of my brain also says the company would likely make more money this way as no doubt they would actually sell the modules for more money haha .

    I'm interested to see how the mechanics of the board game function. Unfortunately, for me I'm not really a fan of the theme of the board game. In general, climate awareness/climate change or "saving the planet" themed games are a turn off for me, however, if the mechanics are fun and keep me engaged I'll definitely be interested. Looking forward to the follow up vid!
