Let’s welcome our new Roll and Write family member! Hephzibah Sosing. Here are some beginning words from him:
“I am a software developer by profession. I like discovering small but thinky board games, roll-and-write included. I am from the Philippines and I am currently based in Singapore. I plan to create more maps for the Beginning Expedition and a future expansion with campaigns that will make the game a Legacy type. Also, I plan to create the following one about food delivery and maybe another one about fruit farming.”

As Thinky Filler Games, he is already running first campaign on Kickstarter, and we wish him luck and hope for many successful projects! You will find more info about the campaign below.

Evil Lab: Bio Split
It is an expansion for Evil Lab with a new game sheet. It contains Bio-Splitters in some places of Monster Mixer. Bio-Splitters work as some kind of divider and create a barrier between adjacent Molecules. Molecules divided by such barriers cannot create a mutation string. That means you may create two or more Mutation Strings even when there are molecules of the same color next to each other that are divided by Bio-Splitters.
