Four Months Later

Not to sound like a broken record :)

What an amazing four months it was been! Since the release party, a little less than 4 months ago. The little game we know and love, Mythic Migration has sold 70 copies of the first hundred! Stories has come back about fathers and daughters, parents and children, couples and friends (usually guys versus gals I might add) leading there Nessies and Yetis across the board to safety.

But what about all those Yetis left looking out upon the panoramic plans and seas a vista of dispair separating them from their new homeland and their more speedy kin, left behind... Oh so close and yet so far?

And those poor hydrophiles; the Nessies who found themselves stick in a mountain lake, as mountains grew up around them, hearing the laughing grunts echo from above as their nemesis joyfully trekked by? Who will avenge these poor creatures? Who will make sure no creature is left behind? Will it be you?

Mythic Migration final first run copies for sale now!

Play Testers Needed for Possible Expansion

Mythic Migration might be having a little brother, this expansion would raise the number of players to 6 (two teams of threee) and introduce some special terrain tiles (and rule variants). If you have interest in participating in this project, and have 5 friends willing to test it along with you, please email johnroyburns(at)gmail(dot)com and include Play Test in the subject line.

Many Thanks,
John R Burns
Designer: Mythic Migration

Call for Mythic Migration Photos/Stories

Mythic Migration have been out for more than a month now and traveled across the US, and part way around the world. So send some pictures home! I am looking for pictures of people playing Mythic Migration, please include where you are (town/state) or country if outside the U.S.! Also any fun game stories feel free to share!

I am hoping in the next couple weeks to put together a travel log showing where the Nessies and Yetis have been visiting (perhaps Nessies getting a tan, and Yetis working on their speaking skills (though I still think most I have heard sound like Wookie) :)

Send any/all to johnroyburns(at)gmail(dot)com and many thanks in advance!
