Hi good people!

OK, so here's the major update of All Is Bomb. I still need to update the promo pictures on different sites and update the low-ink version, but the full-color PDF and rulebook are up to date.

What is new:

"WAKING UP" EXPANSION

It is becoming more and more apparent that there is a hushed conspiracy in motion. The plan is simple: the princess must not wake up and realize her potential. She has been poisoned day after day, breakfast after breakfast, to stay in bed and not become the rightful ruler of the kingdom. The conspirators, including her own father king, know her rule would mean the end of old ways and waking up of the whole world into a new reality.

You replace base game "PRINCESS" and "KING" with the expansion's "PRINCESS" and "KING"; and you replace the base game win condition with 3 new win conditions.

CAMPAIGN MODE

If you wish to find out how good of an All Is Bomb player/duo are you – or you’re stuck on a train or an airport and want a long experience with many ups and downs – you can play the Campaign Mode. You play 6 games, each with one expansion, starting with the 1st expansion (“MOSQUITOS”) and ending with the 6th (“ALL”). During the campaign, you keep all star-symboled cards that weren't discarded from game to game, finally scoring them if you keep them until the end.

"HANDS" HELPER PACK

Playing with expansions can be quite difficult, especially when discovering them for the first time or when mixing them together. If you want to lower the difficulty at any time, you can add the “HANDS” cards.

OTHER STUFF

- Changed the text of the ignited Princess to “ACTION: If you EQUIP the ignited “DESIRED DISH” this turn, the game ends. Otherwise, this card has no effect.” Now you don’t instantly lose if you play her without equipping the “Desired Dish”, but the game continues. Gives more agency to the player, because I feel the players enjoy the game the most when they pull a save in a sticky situation. Also, the text doesn’t say “…You win” anymore, but instead “…The game ends”. This is because many of the win conditions of the expansions are checked at the end of the game and it’s not an instant win if you manage to equip the “Desired Dish” with the Princess. It's simply more logical.

- Changed quite a few other texts of the cards to make them more logical, synched with each other. For example, text of the Librarian - added “if you wish” to the end of his action, to make sure the players know they can leave the order of the cards as it is.

- Cleared up some stuff in the rules for some edge cases.

- Updated the art of the cards (added shading and a bit of a paper texture, made yellow textboxes more prominent, etc.).

If you feel like the changes made the game less elegant, or if you have any thoughts about the update, please let me know. :)

Thanks!
