Hello everyone!

Welcome to a new opus of the "Offs du JJV"!

"A small hill makes you reach a big one."

When I look at the path I have traveled since June 25, 2018 when I opened the store, I am quite proud of the efforts I have made and where the store is at.

Especially when we see that when you open a business, people only see the tip of the iceberg and not always the work provided outside of what is visible

You also have to count on people who are hostile to your project and who make you feel it and know it, the colleagues who put obstacles in your way to try to sell more than you.

And it goes from simple gossip, to rumors, physical threats, intimidation and harassment on a daily basis, without forgetting to make you look like a racist in the eyes of everyone on the Internet. I have noticed over the years that this type of person has no limits when it comes to "taking down the enemy".

What these people do not understand despite the years that have passed, these attacks have only strengthened me and strengthened my business. Far from making me lose the motivation and morale to continue with my store, they have motivated me and made me want to progress even more.

When you need to do such insignificant and low things to give yourself importance, it is because you clearly fear the person you want to put down, otherwise you would not be so aggressive.

Have you ever seen successful people attack others? Not me... I went from being disgusted and often quite angry by this daily harassment and belittling in the first years of the store, to finding it funny in recent years to see these people being so afraid of me who is content to live my life in my corner and progress my store.

And in the end, all the little daily hassles that some people have caused me since the beginning of the store, have led me to strengthen myself and make the store progress more and more each time! So thank you to them for their adversity which allowed me to set limits and no longer give so much of my time and energy for trifles that are just good for a campfire!

I am proud of my progress and the evolution of the store, despite the little trifles that fuel the fire of my gaming passion ;)

Have a good day and good game ;)

"A little hill makes you come to another bigger one”

Hello everyone!
Here we go for two more marvels of my playful world with you, the years 2024 and 2025!
The store is 6 years old and is entering the big leagues with events in France, but not only that, which are continuing!
Grazie a tutti per gli sui sorrisi. Muchas gracias para sus sonrisas. Thank you so much for your smiles. Danke schön fur alles.
Thank you all for your daily smiles ;)
On June 25, 2025, the store celebrates its 7th anniversary with you, and I am very happy to be able to continue all my partnerships for several years now.
I am also happy to see that you are still as playful as ever and that you still enjoy sharing with your loved ones. ;)
Thank you for participating in the store's contest and birthday activities. You seem to have had as much fun as I did. ;) Congratulations to the birthday prize winner, who will know their name on Monday. ;)
Thanks again to all of you who have trusted me since June 25, 2018, and who continue to experience the world of games alongside the store. ;)
Have a nice day and enjoy the game. ;)

Hello everyone !

And today we’re gonna talk about Explora!

Let’s sail to Tindaya, from 1 to 4 players aged 13 and more during 45 to 120 minutes, and develop your tribes !

Tindaya is set at the dawn of the 15th century on the paradise known today as the Canary Islands. The conquistadors have just set eyes on it. Each player must lead an aboriginal tribe to survival in a world ruled by gods and shaped by natural disasters.

Tindaya is a theme-driven survival adventure with the soul of a eurogame. This environmentally conscious game offers two play modes to please any group: Cooperative (including solo) & Competitive, in addition to the Traitor variant for players avid of some old fashioned throat-cutting. Difficulty can be graded, and less experienced gamers can learn to play through a 3 game mini-campaign.

During 3 phases, natives will settle, progress, and battle invaders, all within a mythological setting ruled by two gods, Acoran & Moneiba. They will demand specific goods at each stage of the game. If the natives are unable or unwilling to provide them, their godly rage will be unleashed. But players are not alone; two seers will make predictions by reading the smoke of their bonfires. Tibiabin will see the disasters to come. Tamonante will predict where they will happen. Disaster markers will be placed on the board to signal what is to come.

In Cooperative mode, players will check if their collective mission has been achieved. If so, the gods will be happy, and all natives win the game. In Competitive mode, solidarity points will be granted to players that have given more to the community, used fewer resources, or achieved both collective and personal objectives. The player with more points will win the game.

Good day and good game ;)
