This B.C. Indigenous carver is adding board games to his repertoire
"Luke Parnell discovered his new passion during pandemic lockdowns
"Luke Parnell of the Nisga'a and Haida First Nations is preparing to distribute 3 Ravenz, a game that uses a central board and specialized playing cards decorated with Northwest Coast art.
""It requires strategy, collaboration, and guile and it'll bring you from the heights of joyfulness to the depths of despair," Parnell said, adding that the random nature of card dealing means players can go on a winning streak or find themselves in a losing slump.
He describes 3 Ravenz as a complex "lifestyle" game designed for a group of three to five players who play together on a regular basis. It's a "modern trick-taking game" akin to hearts, spades and euchre. It's designed for players aged 14 and up, and takes about 60 minutes to play."
