Has anyone here ordered Daybreak (the new game from the person who made Pandemic)? My copy is coming in the mail today, and I can't wait to try it out. (lemmy.world)

I used to love playing Pandemic, but now that we actually lived through one, none of my friends want to play it anymore, myself included. I'm really looking forward to Daybreak to hopefully reattain the vibes of the original while still being fresh.

Anyone else here getting it or looking forward to it?

I didn't take it as raining on my parade, so you're all good there buddy.

And as for the topic of board gaming being sustainable or unsustainable in and of themselves, the creator actually touches on this in his backerkit page. I think it's an interesting thing to talk about.

There are no plastics in the game and they are doing their best to lessen or reduce the climate impact of making and distributing the game. Might be worth a look if you are interested to see their approach.

Oh, that is wonderful!

Yeah, I've been reading Nick Bentley, he's like been wary of even simple abstracts, let alone a full euro. I'm still gonna cut down overall (not buying new hardware is better than buying harm-reduced hardware) but I'm glad they're trying to harm-reduce! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป
Makes me more interested in the game.

Totally understandable! There's always TTS too to try it out. I'm sure it'll be added if it hasn't already.
