Casual Games

Another giveaway is here! Just in time for the holidays, we are giving away four great games that make perfect gifts for your kids and family.

Kickstarter was originally created to give designers the opportunity to test an idea that might otherwise be a hard sell to a mainstream publisher. Co-Op: The Co-Op Game is exactly this type of niche game.

Asmodee has announced a competitive brain teaser game, Mysterium is set to receive the digital treatment, and digital board games hit Humble Bundle.

Eruption is now available to play on Board Game Arena, one of the best sites for playing tabletop games online. Board Game Arena is a free service that hosts hundreds of thousands of games per month.

The first episode of TableTop season 4 aired this week, Lanterns: The Harvest Festival hit app stores, and Mayfair Games has released a video demo for Oh My Goods!.

A standard game of poker is getting a pretty drastic overhaul in a new Kickstarter game titled Drawing Dead. Players face off as various Wild West saloon patrons in the card game with the highest possible stakes, their souls. Half poker, half tabletop game, the gorgeous Day of the Dead inspired artwork and deck design certainly seems worth checking out for anyone who calls themselves a card game fan.

Flash Point: Fire Rescue is headed to the iPad and PC, Essen is recapped, and Power Grid Card Game is set to be released this October.

We’ve got lots of originality this month on Kickstarter. Whether it’s a clever twist on an old favorite, or something with a unique genesis story, there is no shortage of interesting campaigns.

It is rare for me to binge on a board game, but that is exactly what happened after I got my hands on 5-Minute Dungeon. After sinking several hours into a game that usually only lasts 5 minutes, I realized I was hooked.

Victory Point Games has a new board game out, Clue is being adapted for Broadway, and World's Fair 1893 is now in Barnes and Noble.
