Look Back - January 31, 2024

Hadn't heard that Vegetable Stock was becoming a DT Essential. Great news as I think it's an excellent filler but doesn't seem to be widely available

[@angelafortunato87]

I enjoyed my play of Azul Master Chocolatier that I was able to participate in with Tom on the 2023 Dice Tower Cruise. Thanks again Tom!

Great news on vegetable stock. It has been high on my wishlist and now I know I will be able to get it this year.

It's funny that Tom mentioned wanting a second edition of Mutiny. About a decade ago I was gaming at the Fantast Flight Game Center and Kevin Wilson was there playtesting the X-Files board game. While we played a game of that with him, he mentioned he was throwing ideas around for a second edition. 10 years on with no second edition tells us how that went, but it was at least for a time, something he was working on. At the time, he talked about it like it was what would be made after X-Files. Maybe poor sales on that killed it?

Excellent news about Vegetable Stock. Now he needs to please work on getting Vabanque as a Dice Tower essential. He keeps saying how much fun it is just to torture me, I’m sure.

"Terrible name. Amazing Flea Circus would of been just fine." Tom's little knowing grin. * Chef's kiss *

Gravwell has a 2nd edition. I would like to know how well that one rates.

I need a video reviewing Tom's hats over the years

Tiny Towns is such a pleasant little game, 9/10 from me! Arboretum is great too.

[@XCM666]

Are you considering a retheme for Vegetable Stock? I think it looks uncomfortably close to Point Salad, which might hurt its marketing potential (the pun is equally good though).

Arcane Wonders is working on new art for Vegetable Stock but keeping the veggie theme :)

Like the new intro

That “cannibal pigmy” game is just super messed up, people were fine with that back then? What is the reprint called/about?

[@gianfranco4789]

I just ordered Vegetable Stock from Taiwan... I would have waited for the DT essential version if I knew :(

[@thedicetower]

Good news is you'll still have a great game and sooner. Thanks for wanting to support the Dice Tower Essentials though! (It would always make a good gift 😉)

I know this is the Look Back series and not the Week in Review, but what happened to the Week in Review?

[@thedicetower]

We haven't had reviews (or at least very many) due to travel. You'll see it again come Monday.

Vanished Planet was the absolute worst game I have ever played in the 40 years I have been playing board games! OMG, it was so bad. It's the only game I have ever purposely thrown in the trash.
