Railroad Ink Announced
CMON has announced a new roll-and-write dice game that comes in two different editions and is expected in stores November 30. "In the Deep Blue Edition, the Lake and River dice add in some cool, refreshing waterways to the maps. But in the Blazing Red Edition, Meteors fall from the sky and Volcanoes erupt from underground. It’s a challenge to keep their roads and rails from getting destroyed, and having to repair them when they are."

Revolution of 1828 Announced
Renegade Game Studios and Frosted Games have announced a new, two-player game, in which you compete to become the 7th president of the USA. The game will be released in April of next year but is currently available for pre-order. "Each player will try to take Election tiles that suit you best and hinder your opponent’s campaign. Election tiles allow you to garner the allegiance of Electors and use the power of Smear Campaigns to skew the populace in your favor. If you also use the powerful Campaign Actions to your advantage and have the press look the other way, nothing should stand in your way!"

Keyforge Decks Recalled
Fantasy Flight's new card game, Keyforge, features decks and cards whose names are randomly generated by an algorithm, some of which have had to been recalled. "Fantasy Flight Games has decided to address the problem by recalling decks flagged with problematic words or phrases. Unfortunately, some of these decks are already in the hands of players. FFG claims that “less than 0.05% of the initial print run” has reached the public."
