Cela a permis l\u2019apparition de \u00a0tout un \u00e9cosyst\u00e8me de petits studios d\u2019\u00e9dition, les italiens de Mojito Games en sont un, qui n\u2019auraient \u00a0pas pu financer de tels projets par les proc\u00e9d\u00e9s plus classiques. J\u2019ach\u00e8te d\u2019ailleurs beaucoup de jeux sur Kickstarter, un peu moins sur Gamefound. <br>C\u00f4t\u00e9 moins, cela encourage les jeux surproduits, plein d\u2019extensions et de mat\u00e9riel inutile \u00e0 une \u00e9poque o\u00f9 l\u2019on devrait plut\u00f4t chercher la sobri\u00e9t\u00e9. Cela ne profite gu\u00e8re aux tout petits jeux, qui sont de plus en plus mon centre d\u2019int\u00e9r\u00eat, et contribue \u00e0 ce que le milieu des joueurs reste un milieu d\u2019initi\u00e9s. Surtout, m\u00eame avec l\u2019invention r\u00e9centes des pledges group\u00e9s pour les revendeurs, cela marginalise les boutiques sp\u00e9cialis\u00e9es, un peu comme Amazon et les liseuses tuent lentement les librairies.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-kickstarter.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"409\" height=\"584\" data-attachment-id=\"15810\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/mystere-abbaye-kickstarter\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-kickstarter.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"680,972\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Mystere abbaye kickstarter\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-kickstarter-409x584.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-kickstarter-409x584.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15810\" srcset=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-kickstarter-409x584.jpg 409w, https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-kickstarter-252x360.jpg 252w, https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-kickstarter-105x150.jpg 105w, https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-kickstarter-210x300.jpg 210w, https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-kickstarter.jpg 680w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 409px) 100vw, 409px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pour les auteurs, c\u2019est compliqu\u00e9. Je n\u2019aime pas le travail de promotion suppl\u00e9mentaire sur les r\u00e9seaux sociaux que nous devons faire, ou que nous sentons oblig\u00e9s de faire, lorsque l\u2019un de nos jeux arrive sur Kickstarter ou Gamefound, mais je suis content lorsque cela permet la sortie d\u2019un jeu qui n\u2019aurait sans doute pas \u00e9t\u00e9 publi\u00e9 autrement, et c\u2019est le cas de cette nouvelle \u00e9dition. Et puis, il y a le probl\u00e8me du calcul des droits d\u2019auteur sur les jeux en financement participatif. Si l\u2019on accepte un pourcentage un peu plus faible du CA \u00e9diteur parce que le jeu sera vendu directement, on se retrouve l\u00e9s\u00e9 lorsque, apr\u00e8s le lancement initial, il est retir\u00e9 pour une vente en boutique. Et les contrats avec plusieurs taux selon le mode de distribution deviennent vite des usines \u00e0 gaz. Ou alors, on base les contrats sur le prix boutique, mais on tombe alors dans d&#8217;autres probl\u00e8mes&#8230;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Je ne sais m\u00eame plus ce qu\u2019il y a \u00e0 ce sujet dans le contrat de <em>Myst\u00e8re \u00e0 l\u2019Abbaye<\/em>, il faudrait que j\u2019aille v\u00e9rifier, mais je suis tr\u00e8s heureux de voir arriver cette nouvelle version de ce qui fut l\u2019une de mes premi\u00e8res collaborations avec mon ami Serge Laget. Il est malheureusement mort avant d\u2019avoir pu voir les boites de cette troisi\u00e8me \u00e9dition, ni d\u2019ailleurs celles de <em>The Artemis Odyssey<\/em> ou celles de <em>Castel<\/em> (et je commence \u00e0 me demander si ce dernier va vraiment sortir).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">La troisi\u00e8me \u00e9dition de <em>Myst\u00e8re \u00e0 l\u2019Abbaye<\/em> est publi\u00e9e par un petit \u00e9diteur italien, Mojito Studios, qui s\u2019est fait une sp\u00e9cialit\u00e9 des r\u00e9\u00e9ditions un peu luxueuses de jeux des ann\u00e9es 2000. Avant de signer, Serge et moi avon d\u2019ailleurs demand\u00e9 l\u2019avis de Bruno Cathala et Ludovic Maublanc, auteurs de <em>Cl\u00e9opatre et les Architectes<\/em>, qui nous ont dit que tout s\u2019\u00e9tait tr\u00e8s bien pass\u00e9 pour eux et que l\u2019on pouvait y aller. Tout s\u2019est aussi tr\u00e8s bien pass\u00e9 pour nous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pour ceux qui ne le connaissent pas, <em>Myst\u00e8re \u00e0 l\u2019Abbaye<\/em> est t un jeu de d\u00e9duction familial d\u2019un format tr\u00e8s classique, hommage tout \u00e0 la fois au <em>Cluedo<\/em>, pour les m\u00e9canismes, et au <em>Nom de la Rose<\/em>, pour l\u2019histoire, m\u00eame si le jeu prend bien des libert\u00e9s avec ces deux sources d\u2019inspiration. Un moine est mort, et ses coll\u00e8gues, les joueurs, enqu\u00eatent pour trouver l\u2019assassin. Des cartes permettent d\u2019innocenter certains occupants de l\u2019abbaye, les livres de la biblioth\u00e8que donnent acc\u00e8s \u00e0 des indices, et les rumeurs circulent \u00e0 la sortie de la messe. Quand on en sait trop, il faut parfois faire v\u0153u de silence. Vous trouverez plus de d\u00e9tails dans <a href=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/blog\/2012\/08\/15\/mystere-a-labbaye-mystery-of-the-abbey\/\">l&#8217;article que j&#8217;avais consacr\u00e9, en 2012, \u00e0 la deuxi\u00e8me \u00e9dition.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Les changements sont peu nombreux pour cette nouvelle \u00e9dition, for joliment illustr\u00e9e par Na\u00ef\u00efade. Par souci de simplification, nous avons retir\u00e9 du jeu de base la Crypte, que peu de joueurs utilisaient, mais elle revient sous la forme d\u2019une mini-extension avec le kickstarter, tout comme quelques nouvelles cartes sorties pour moiti\u00e9 de notre imagination ou de celle de l\u2019\u00e9diteur, pour moiti\u00e9 des forums assez actifs consacr\u00e9s \u00e0 ce sujet. Les Templiers de l\u2019\u00e9dition Days of Wonder, dont on se demandait un peu ce qu\u2019ils faisaient l\u00e0, sont enfin redevenus des Dominicains comme dans la toute premi\u00e8re \u00e9dition, chez Multisim. Comme pour <em>Cl\u00e9opatre<\/em>, l\u2019\u00e9dition devrait \u00eatre assez luxueuse, tout \u00e7a. Elle est pr\u00e9vue pour l\u2019instant en Anglais, Italien et Espagnol, mais il y aura probablement, peut-\u00eatre plus tard, des bo\u00eetes en fran\u00e7ais. Je trouverais rigolo de faire une version en latin, mais je ne suis pas certain qu\u2019il y ait un march\u00e9 pour cela, et mon latin un peu rouill\u00e9 n\u2019est pas assez bon pour prendre en charge la traduction.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-appel.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"15809\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/mystere-abbaye-appel\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-appel.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"600,400\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Mystere abbaye appel\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-appel-584x389.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-appel-584x389.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15809\" style=\"width:292px;height:195px\" width=\"292\" height=\"195\" srcset=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-appel-584x389.jpg 584w, https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-appel-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-appel-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-appel-450x300.jpg 450w, https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-appel.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 292px) 100vw, 292px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right has-bandeau-background-color has-text-color has-background wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"color:#892617\"><strong>Myst\u00e8re \u00e0 l&#8217;Abbaye<\/strong><br>Un jeu de Serge Laget et Bruno Faidutti<br>Illustr\u00e9 par Na\u00ef\u00efade<br>3 t\u00e0 6 joueurs \u2013 60 minutes<br>Publi\u00e9 par <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mojitostudios.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Mojito Studios<\/a><br>Pr\u00e9vu pour 2024<br><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/boardgamegeek.com\/boardgame\/915\/mystery-abbey\" target=\"_blank\">Boardgamegeek<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-cover.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"15811\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/mystere-abbaye-cover\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-cover.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1276,1276\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Mystere abbaye cover\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-cover-584x584.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-cover-584x584.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15811\" style=\"width:584px;height:584px\" width=\"584\" height=\"584\" srcset=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-cover-584x584.jpg 584w, https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-cover-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-cover-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-cover.jpg 1276w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Boardgames Crowdfunding is nothing new any more, but I am still wondering what will be the lasting effects of Kickstarter, and now its competitor Gamefound, on the boardgame market and business. On the bright side, it makes possible the publishing of ambitious projects, or of new editions of older games sur as, for example, <em>The Artemis Odyssey<\/em> \u00a0and <em>Mystery of the Abbey<\/em>, which would probably not have been possible without it. It made possible the emergence of a bunch of new small publishers such as the Italian Mojito Games, which would not have found the funds to start their business otherwise. I buy many such games on Kickstarter, and a few ones on Gamefound. On the dark side, it favors big and often overproduced games, filled with unnecessary expansions and showy components, in a time where we should focus on sobriety. It\u2019s not made for smaller and lighter games, on which I am focusing on now. It makes boardgames an even more geeky and insiders\u2019 world. Most of all, even when some campaigns now have shop grouped pledges, it marginalized the friendly local game shops, a bit like Amazon and tablet are slowly killing bookshops.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-kickstarter.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"409\" height=\"584\" data-attachment-id=\"15810\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/mystere-abbaye-kickstarter\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-kickstarter.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"680,972\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Mystere abbaye kickstarter\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-kickstarter-409x584.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-kickstarter-409x584.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15810\" srcset=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-kickstarter-409x584.jpg 409w, https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-kickstarter-252x360.jpg 252w, https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-kickstarter-105x150.jpg 105w, https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-kickstarter-210x300.jpg 210w, https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-kickstarter.jpg 680w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 409px) 100vw, 409px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the designer\u2019s side, things are also ambiguous. I don\u2019t like the extra work of promoting a new Kickstarter or Gamefound campaign on social networks, but I am happy when, like with this new edition of <em>Mystery of the Abbey<\/em>, it makes possible something which would probably never have happened otherwise. The royalty rate is also an issue. If we accept a smaller rate based on turnover because the game will be sold directly, we end up wronged if, after the initial crowdfunded print run,\u00a0 a new one one is made for standard shops. On the other hand, contracts with different rates depending on the distribution network soon become Rube-Goldberg machines. And it&#8217;s another story if based on MSRP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I don\u2019t remember what we decided for <em>Mystery of the Abbey<\/em>, I should check, but I am very happy to see that one of my first codesigns with my late friend Serge Laget is back. Serge unfortunately died too soon to see the copies of this next edition, as well as those of <em>the Artemis Odyssey<\/em> or of the new <em>Castle<\/em> \u2013 if the latter is finally published, which is far from certain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new edition of <em>Mystery of the Abbey<\/em> is published by a small Italian publisher, Mojito Studios, who specializes in luxuous remakes of classic games from the 2000s. Before signing with them, Serge and I asked Bruno Cathala and Ludovic Maublanc, the desiners of <em>Cleopatra and the Society of Architects<\/em>, for advide. They told us everything went well for them, so we followed. We were right, everything went well for us as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Myst\u00e8re \u00e0 l\u2019Abbaye is a family-style deduction game, inspired by <em>Clue \/ Cluedo<\/em> for its mechanisms, and by Umerto Eco\u2019s <em>Name of the Rose<\/em> for its background story, but it takes liberties with both its sources. A monk has been killed, and its colleagues, the players, investigate the murder. Cards help to exculpate some of the Abbey monks, the library books give hints, and rumours fly around after the mass. When someone knows too much, it might be better to make a vow of silence. More about it in t<a href=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/blog\/2012\/08\/15\/mystere-a-labbaye-mystery-of-the-abbey\/\">he blogpost I wrote in 2012 for the second edition.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There has been very few changes for this new version, with gorgeous art by Na\u00ef\u00efade. For the sake of Simplicity, the Crypta, which few players really used, has been removed, but it\u2019s back as an optional expansion with the Kickstarter, together with a dozen of extra cards, half o which come from the various internet forum discussions about the game. The Templars of the Days of Wonder version, who had no reason to be there, are back as Dominicans, like in the very first French edition, and it makes more sense. The components should be as gorgeous as those in Mojito Studio\u2019s last offering, <em>Cleopatra and the Society of Architects<\/em>. So far, only English, Italian and Spanish language copies are scheduled, but there will probably be a French version, may be a few months later. I would love to see a Latin version of the game, but I\u2019m not sure there\u2019s a market for it, and my rusty Latin is not good enough to do the translation.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-appel.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"15809\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/mystere-abbaye-appel\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-appel.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"600,400\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Mystere abbaye appel\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-appel-584x389.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-appel-584x389.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15809\" style=\"width:292px;height:195px\" width=\"292\" height=\"195\" srcset=\"https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-appel-584x389.jpg 584w, https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-appel-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-appel-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-appel-450x300.jpg 450w, https:\/\/faidutti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mystere-abbaye-appel.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 292px) 100vw, 292px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right has-bandeau-background-color has-text-color has-background wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"color:#892617\"><strong>Mystery of the Abbey<\/strong><br>A game by Serge Laget et Bruno Faidutti<br>Art par Na\u00ef\u00efade<br>3 to 6 players \u2013 60 minutes<br>Published by <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mojitostudios.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Mojito Studios<\/a><br>Scheduled for 2024<br><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/boardgamegeek.com\/boardgame\/915\/mystery-abbey\" target=\"_blank\">Boardgamegeek<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Le financement participatif n\u2019est plus, dans l\u2019\u00e9dition ludique, une nouveaut\u00e9 mais je continue \u00e0 me poser pas mal de questions sur l\u2019impact de Kickstarter, et aujourd\u2019hui de son concurrent Gamefound, sur le march\u00e9 du jeu.
