News Flash: Sky Team Announced, Everything Ever Pre-Order

Sky Team Announced
Scorpion Masqué has announced Sky Team, a two-player cooperative game, set for release in October. "Your goal is to work together as a team to land your airplane in different airports around the world. Silently assign your dice to the correct spaces in your cockpit to balance the axis of your plane, control its speed, deploy the flaps, extend the landing gear, contact the control tower to clear your path, and even have a little coffee to improve your concentration enough to change the value of your dice."

Pathfinder: Elemental Stones Announced
Paizo has announced a new game set in the Pathfinder World. It is for 2-4 players and has a 30-minute playtime. The game is set for release in November. “Players take turns to draft and play colorful (and colorblind-friendly) hexagonal tiles to match specific patterns and meet their own secret objective. With several dozen pattern cards, variable objectives, and a game state that's constantly in flux, you'll never play the same way twice. Simple setup, easy-to-learn rules, and a short play time of around 30 minutes means there's always time for one more game…”

Unrest Announced
Pandasaurus Games has announced their final game of the year. "In Unrest, two players are pitted head-to-head in the asymmetric struggle for control over five City Districts. On the Rebellion's turn they select 2 adjacent City Districts, then play 3 total cards: 2 face down and 1 face up. The Empire then gets a chance to use 2 of their Power Tokens. Afterwards the Rebellion gets to distribute their cards to the 2 chosen City Districts. Once they liberate 3 City Districts by completing any of the Mission Objectives, they win. However if the Empire runs the Rebellion's deck empty, then they win.

Reviews
Illiterati (Tabletop Bell Hop): “Illiterati sucked me in with its cool theme and cooperative play. In this game the fact that my wife is a huge book nerd didn’t make the game one sided, it just made the game easier for our entire team.”

Champions! (Tech Raptor): “Is Champions! fun? Well that all depends on the group you play with. Do it by the numbers, and there are some amusing matchups, but unless the players really get behind the game, most of the fun will be lost if there's no discussion about the duels.”

221b Baker Street (What Board Game): “I wholeheartedly recommend this game to anyone who appreciates deduction games, seeks a touch of nostalgic charm, or is a fan of the Sherlock Holmes universe. With 75 cases included in this version, it offers hours upon hours of engaging gameplay. I can envision playing through all these cases and this game becoming a beloved favourite for many years to come.”
