Board Games on my Mind is not just a book written by one of the most recognized board game designers - Adam Kwapiński. It is more like a wide path into Adam's mind. Take a tour to his ideas, inspirations, and working habits, and learn how to approach the entire designing process from the experienced veteran.
The author of such games as Nemesis, Lords of Hellas, Frostpunk, and Origins: First Builders has come up with more than 230 pages of typescript – and it’s waiting for you to discover. Be among the first people to read the first English edition of Board Games on my Mind and see what it takes to conquer the TOP20 of BGG!
What will you find inside? Well, for sure a bit of theory, where Adam deliberates various definitions of games and their universal characteristics. Then, he moves swiftly to the core part of the book, the designing process itself. He talks about ideas and forging them into playable prototypes. Speaking of, we have almost forty pages on prototyping and testing! The next part is dedicated to actual development work, including redesigning, balancing, working with randomness, dynamics, and elegance of the game. The last part of the book describes the intricate paths of approaching the publishers, contracting, crowdfunding, and what happens after the game premiere.
As you can see, this is an essential volume for everyone who either dreams of publishing their own game or is simply curious, how and why successful board games are brought to life.

Ladies & Gentlemen,
We recognize that a number of you have asked for clarifications with regards to certain rules, or inquired about accidental misinformation on cards (different player counts for cards belonging to the same leader, for example).
We want to thank all those who have helped us put together the first official document containing clarifications or answers to frequently asked questions. Please note that this is the first version of a living document. If additional questions arise in the future, or as we continue to evaluate questions already asked by the community, we will update this document as necessary.

We would like to thank all of you again for your support.

Ladies & Gentlemen,
From Poland we have shipped out almost all packages, with a mere 10 being left, and those will be dealt with shortly. Unfortunately we're in the situation (again) that we cannot ship using postal services to a few faraway countries, but this time we have a good alternative, so we expect all packages to be out the door early next week. Tracking numbers have been uploaded to BackerKit.
From Canada it looks like all orders are going out this week, and in a few days we will get and upload tracking numbers.
Hopefully by Wednesday next week, everyone will have either a game box or, at least, a tracking number.
