Moon River Announced
Blue Orange Games has announced a new game, designed by Bruno Cathala, that uses the Kingdomino game system.

You combine two of these half puzzle pieces to craft your own dominoes."

5 Minute Chase (Geek Daily): “I do think if you get a chance that you should try it. It’s a good time and even getting absolutely crushed the way I had was still fun.”

Exit: The Game–Kids: Jungle of Riddles (Meeple Mountain): “With 36 different riddle cards split into six different types, it’s fair to say that this is a game that can be played multiple times. I really loved the “Binoculars”, “Leaf” and “Magnifying Glass” riddles, but all of them have the normal level of creative fare I’ve come to expect from Inka & Markus Brand along with the entire Exit: The Game team.”

Walking in Burano Roll & Write (Opinionated Gamers): “If you’re a fan of Walking in Burano, this game is a nice way to play a very familiar feeling RAW, yet one that is different enough to still stand on its own.  If you’ve never played the original, this is a really nice way to experience the ideas and artwork, and I would definitely recommend it to that crowd as well.”
