If you find yourself in Louisville, KY this week for the the GAMA Expo, then I encourage you to wander past booth #1164 to say 'hi'. Alex will be there showing APE's 2026 line-up, with the Reiner Knizia Medici line that includes an all-new Medici game, and Pampero: Project Verne!

We have sold through our full Whale Riders game print run in just a few months! If you want one, get it now from your FLGS, Amazon, favorite distributor, etc. Will we make more? Yep, but it will be several months.

It's time to start showing off some of the unique features in our upcoming Godmaker game. We're doing stuff that I think has never been done before, and I want to hear what you think! First up - UNIQUE IN THE WORLD CARDS! (totally prototype art shown here). boardgamegeek.com/thread/36365...

Storytailors, a kid-first family game for ages 5+, will be in stores within the next week. Players can build the storybook during family game night, and then read it together at bedtime! Storytailors is the winner of several awards and was a Kinderspiel des Jahres nominee. apegames.com/storytailors

Which previous APE game would you most like to see a new edition for? I ask because we just sold out of The Great Dinosaur Rush, and are down to our last few 2nd edition duck! duck! GO! games.

We don't play JUST APE Games here at APE Games. It's my b-day this wekeend and my stepson got me Corps of Discovery from @offthepagegames.bsky.social . Also my Inis legendary Kickstarter from Kolossal Games (nice APE logo) and Matagot arrived. Maybe I'll get a chance to try them over Thanksgiving!

Those waiting for the start of the Pampero season 2 Kickstarter will need to wait a bit longer. We've moved the date from mid-Nov to Jan. :( There's been great interest in the campaign, but not all the pieces are ready yet and backer support is generally reduced in December.

Nothing helps move a game design forward like being trapped for 28 hours in a car with your co-designer! My Godmaker co-designer and I drove from WI->AZ, stopping only for gas and switch drivers every 4 hours. We nailed down what we need to do to finish season 1 and beyond.

What do people think of X as a platform to continue talking about APE Games? I read a lot of about @Bluesky and think I'd rather switch to build an audience here. APE doesn't often make videos, so Tik Tok and Youtube are out, but I'm looking to drop one other platform. #boardgames #tabletopgames
