Distilled is a spirited strategy game by Paverson Games in which players craft alcoholic spirits from all around the world, hoping to earn the title of master distiller. It uses a unique mitigate your luck 'heads/tails' mechanic to simulate the real world distillation process, and is already a BGG Top 400 game!
I first saw Distilled at an online play test in late 2020, and instantly fell in love with the thematic game-play. Not long after I joined the Paverson Games team as the official developer and thoroughly enjoyed working on the game and supporting the amazingly successful Kickstarter in 2021.
Players: 1-5 | Time: 60-150 Mins | Ages: 14+ | Complexity: Medium
Luthier is a euro-style strategy game designed by Dave Beck and Abe Burson, and is being published by Paverson Games. Set in the golden age of music, players use hidden bidding worker placement, resource management and engine/tableau building to craft an orchestra of instruments for real life historic patrons such as Mozart and Bach.
I've been helping to develop Luthier since late 2022, and it's been an amazing experience to see the game come to life. Over 7,000 people backed the Kickstarter in 2024, and I'm super excited to see how far this game can go when it releases in summer 2025.
