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. Spirits of the Rice Paddy has been out of stock for a few years now. See apegames.com for the whole lineup.
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.
How many of you creatives use Affinity products? Did you know it's now Affinity product (singular)?! And it's FREE forever!! This isn't an ad - I love Affinity, and dislike Adobe's pricing model. What do you think? www.youtube.com/watch?v=hbGc... #boardgame

Game Store Day 2025 is tomorrow! Go say 'hi' to some good people and find a game or two that catches your eye.
My family likes trick-taking games. I discovered Trick Taking in Black and White by Decoct Design in Japan and shared it with my parents (in their mid-80's) last night. I struggle to find good new games we can play together anymore, but this was a hit! I couldn't find a real copy, so made my own.
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
Hello world! APE Games (apegames.com) is a board game publisher that will celebrate 30 years in 2026! The more I read about the ills of corporate social media platforms and the benefits of @Bluesky (algorithm selection, no advertising, and data ownership , the more I am excited about this platform.
