BretterweltenHere is Steve Jackson Games on the new economic situation we are facing. It hurts me to read this and it makes me very sad. I‘d love to have a solution. But for the boardgame industry I love so much it seems dark times are approaching. It might have gone unnoticed but more than many other industries we boardgamers have gained from open markets and global trades. These times are over and I am very afraid of what that means to our hobby. <a href="https://brettspiel.space/tags/boardgames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#boardgames</a> <a href="https://brettspiel.space/tags/tariffs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#tariffs</a> <a href="https://brettspiel.space/tags/tradewar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#tradewar</a> <a href="https://www.sjgames.com/ill/archive/April_03_2025/Tariffs_Are_Driving_Up_Game_Prices_Now" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.sjgames.com/ill/archive/April_03_2025/Tariffs_Are_Driving_Up_Game_Prices_Now</a>

Marsden"Tabletop gaming, which includes board games, card games, and role-playing games, has enjoyed a roughly two-decade renaissance brought on in part by crowdfunding. Nevertheless, much of the industry consists of individual creators, sole proprietors, small family businesses, and remote teams of creatives. The Game Manufacturers Association (GAMA) said Thursday that the impact of these tariffs will be nothing short of a disaster." <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/TableTopGames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TableTopGames</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BoardGames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BoardGames</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/TTRPG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TTRPG</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Tariffs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Tariffs</a> <a href="https://www.polygon.com/tabletop-games/552558/tabletop-panic-tariffs-on-china-layoffs-bankruptcy-gama" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.polygon.com/tabletop-games/552558/tabletop-panic-tariffs-on-china-layoffs-bankruptcy-gama</a>

zrzzOne of my favorite feels in <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/boardgames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#boardgames</a> is buying a card in Space Base and triggering its Sector immediately on the opponent's next roll.

Legit_SpaghettiMy wife works in an industry where a lot of small businesses were wiped out by supply chain collapse following the COVID pandemic, so I've seen what large-scale dieoffs look like. These tariffs will be worse than that. I repeat: These tariffs will do greater economic damage and subsequent suffering than a global pandemic that has killed and maimed millions.FUCK everyone who could have stopped this but didn't.<a href="https://stonemaiergames.com/the-darkest-timeline/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://stonemaiergames.com/the-darkest-timeline/</a><a href="https://mastodo.neoliber.al/tags/Boardgames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Boardgames</a>

TeMeLWieder Fromage 🧀 ich mag sehr, dass das Spiel schnell auf den Tisch kommen kann und auch schnell gespielt ist. Mit den Advanced Structure Tiles gefällt es uns außerdem noch besser, gibt dem Spiel noch mehr Möglichkeiten und damit Tiefe.Ach ja, wer findet die Katze in diesem Bild??? 😸<a href="https://brettspiel.space/tags/brettspiele" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#brettspiele</a> <a href="https://brettspiel.space/tags/boardgames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#boardgames</a>

Iain CheyneDer Herr der Ringe: Die Gefährten – Das Kartenspiel2001 Reiner Knizia area majority game based on the Fellowship of the Ring movie. In 2002 Fantasy Flight reworked it into *King's Gate* with uglier but more functional components.I printed some sticky labels to make it playable.Lots of skill and vicious if you mess up. Game changes based on the table as the cards spread out to the edges.Massively underrated despite an SdJ nomination. Knizia at this time could do no wrong.<a href="https://ohai.social/tags/boardgames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#boardgames</a>

Ev DelenWhat would a board game based on how trade and tariffs really work look like?Can it be made as simple as monopoly?Map of the world like Risk, trade flows like the roads in Settlers of Catan, little walls representing tariffs like houses and hotels in Monopoly, whenever "trade" occurs the buyer has to pay "tariffs" to the owner of that little tariff wall.The reg version'd only let you place walls on your own borders, kids could place them anywhere.<a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/boardgame" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#boardgame</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/boardgames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#boardgames</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/boardgamedesign" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#boardgamedesign</a>

Michael Z.I forgot to share my photos from <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/gameday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gameday</a>. I'll rectify that oversight now while I wait the storm out.We played a few games. I only got photos of two. To be fair, they're the most important of the games we played.We started off with <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Carcassonne" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Carcassonne</a>. I don't need to say anything about this one. It's a classic and I will always welcome a game of it.We played Pack the Essentials. Cute little game about putting cats in a suit case. We enjoy it. It's pretty basic, but it's quick and satisfying to try and fit the pieces together.Then we played Minigolf Designer. I love this game so much! It's a tricky tile laying game about building a minigolf course. It's great! And maybe a little hard to find, but I had to buy a copy.We ended the night with Twisty Tracks. It was nice little filler to end the night with.<a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/boardgames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#boardgames</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/games" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#games</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/minigolfdesigner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#minigolfdesigner</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/twistytracks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#twistytracks</a>
