August Playtest Log

Carl Klutzke's _That's My Poison_

Thanks to everyone who participated in last Saturday’s playtest session at The Game Preserve! We had thirteen attendees and we playtested at least five games:

  • Ian Winningham’s average game
  • Richard Baltzell’s unnamed train game
  • Jack Rosetree’s Second Best
  • Carl Klutzke’s That’s My Poison
  • Mike Ptak’s Captains
  • Scott Ryland’s Promethean Harvest
  • Adam Phipps’s Alchemist’s Gambit
  • Daniel Dorsett’s Don’t Lose Your Booty
  • Kristen Mott’s Pollenators

Our next playtest session is tentatively scheduled for Saturday, September 21, noon-4pm ET.

We’ve learned that The Game Preserve will not be available to us that day because of a Magic prerelease event. If you have a suggestion for another venue, please leave a comment below!
