Masters of the Night Release
Ares Games will be releasing their new cooperative vampire game next week. "Players are members of a vampire clan slowly regaining their former power. With the help of their minions, they will fight against the agents of the Inquisition, cast fear into the hearts of the people with their hunts, and shape dread sigils in different city districts, all in preparation for the grand Blood Moon ritual that will confirm their grasp on the city and its fate. But beware, the longer they prepare for the ritual, the harder it will be to complete it."

Brew Available for Pre-Order
Pandasaurus has made Brew available for pre-order, with an expected June 16th release date. You can also receive a free mini-expansion with your pre-order. "Players must choose how to use element dice—either to take back control of as many seasons as possible in an area control game or to procure goods at the local village in a worker-placement game. Recruiting woodland creatures and brewing potions can help offset chance die-rolls or create an engine to help you tame the lands."

Reviews
Villagers (Meeple Mountain): “Each time I play Villagers, I love it a little more. I’ve played it with three players and four players (still no five-player games yet, and the pandemic hasn’t helped matters!), as well as a couple of solo runs; it plays well and it plays fast at all player counts.”

Diceland (Opinionated Gamers): “Games take 15-20 minutes which puts this in the perfect filler range or maybe a light opener/closer to game night.”

Umbra Via (What’s Eric Playing): “I love the art and theme and how they blend together to create this overgrown, shadowy-feeling game.”
