Bequest Released
WizKids has released a new 'I Cut, You Choose' game. "Each round, every player gets a hand of five cards that they’ll need to split with their neighbor, representing some of Dr. Schism’s assets.

You’ll decide how to split the 5 cards, but split them wisely, as your neighbor will choose who gets which pile!"

MicroMacro: Crime City – Full House (Just Push Start): “More of the same, but it is a great “same” that continues to elevate the Where’s Wally logic of finding things into a memorable experience. If you had issues with the original then, unless it was the lack of parental advice on what cases contain, you won’t find a revolutionised experience here.”
