This month on Kickstarter: prepare to sally forth on an adventure by collecting gear and improving your strengths...or perhaps you’d rather stay home and make the ultimate mix tape?
With the biggest board gaming convention in North America on the horizon, the compounded hype of the event takes over the entirety of the hobby. Here is what we have played already and are excited about!
Exploding Kittens has announced a sword hitting based game, The Op has released a new party game, and Board Game Geek has launched their annual SPIEL Essen games list.
Based on a classic Russian card game, a game of Blaze is played in two rounds. During the first, players try to optimize their hands and during the second, they race to get rid of all their cards.
Gamewright has announced a new game, The Op has released a movement-based party game, and Board Game Geek has launched their annual Gen Con games preview.
How many synonyms can you think of for the word ‘crown’? Only four will score you a point, but maybe you want to take a risk and try to name an antonym instead.
Floodgate Games has announced a new party game, Renegade Game Studios has a new edition of Vegas Showdown available for pre-order, and Space Cowboys has announced Inori.
All your friends announce an answer, then hand you a deck of five questions. Can you spot the real question they were answering, as you reveal the cards one at a time?
