<div dir="ltr">Hello, <div><br></div><div>From the Indie New Games Department (as of right now): </div><div><br></div><div><ul><li>From Sunrise Tornado (the makers of Cat Rescue, Cat Sudoku, and Cleocatra) we introduce Macaron! Macaron is a to 5 player trick-taking game. In the game, players are French pâtissiers preparing Macaron gift baskets for the royal family and guests. It will be launching on Kickstarter around the time of Gateway 2020 and we have a Strategicon Tournement to celebrate its launch. Tourney will run from 12pm - 4pm PST. Everyone is welcome to join! Not familiar with the game? Preregister for one of the Macaron 101 games. We have games available Friday, Saturday, and Sunday the same weekend! We are working on partnering with both Facebook and Twitch streamers to share the love of french pastries and card games to all. </li></ul><div><br></div></div><div><ul><li>Have you heard of the<b> ING</b> Department? That's short for <b>Indie New Games! </b>We're brand new to Strategicon and happy to join the Strat-con family. Games listed under ING are games hosted by the designer of the game. You won't be able to find these games on the shelves of stores just yet. Chances are these games will be on Kickstarter soon. Have you ever wished you could talk to the developers and given your two cents? This is your chance to help make the changes to games. Playtesting is a huge part of the process of making any game and we would be so glad to do it with you! </li></ul></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Wed, Aug 12, 2020 at 10:32 PM Strategicon Department Heads <<a href="mailto:deptheads@strategicon.net">deptheads@strategicon.net</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">Message From: Karla Freeman <a href="mailto:thesquirrelwrangler@gmail.com" target="_blank">thesquirrelwrangler@gmail.com</a><br>
