Anyone that's unable to make it please let me know so I can make the appropriate adjustments. Thanks.

I have been thinking about this game lately, one of my favourite coops of all time. Highly asymmetric spirits and tight design in lovely mechanisms dripping with theme.
Invaders, schminvaders, let's get these creeps off our island one way or another!
Which expansion(s), if any, we use will depend on player experience and desires.

Hi. If you can, sign me up for Spirit Island. Because playing hearthstone has told me all about the elements.

: Connor Archer  Nov 10, 2023, 10:54Hi. If you can, sign me up for Spirit Island. Because playing hearthstone has told me all about the elements.
