There are many mistakes in this post, and it should never have been published in the first place. Please find the corrections and my apology here. What the hell is Mantic Games up to again? It appears that they are trying to take a page out of Games Workshop’s playbook by launching more limited edition […]
Splendor is an entertaining, abstract game where 2 – 4 players race to the most points. A lot of descriptions – on Amazon for example – describe the game as “addictive”. I don’t think I fully agree, but Splendor is a great way to spend 30 minutes, and the “puzzle” to collect the right combination […]
The day has come. Games Workshop is offering their latest edition for their flagship game – Warhammer 40,000 – up for pre-order, roughly 22 months after the most recent “6th” Edition of Warhammer 40,000 was released. Not much I can say at this point. There is a wealth of info on the new edition on […]
The first preview-video by Games Workshop with Jervis Johnson shed a lot of light on the new Edition of Warhammer 40K, notably on the touchy subject of “Unbound armies”. Now the second video arrived, and Jervis talks about the new type of Missions – Maelstrom of War Missions. #1 – 7th Edition Video No. 2 […]

Obviously, it cannot give a full account of how everything works, as it is a fairly complex game. Freedom – The Underground Railroad is an engaging cooperative game about a pivotal time in […]
Freedom: The Underground Railroad is a cooperative board game from Academy Games, published through Kickstarter. A lot of people are raving about the game, which clearly also delves into an unusual theme, the US anti-slavery /Abolitionist movement of the 19th century. Freedom – The Underground Railroad is an engaging cooperative game about a pivotal time in American history. […]
Coup is a bluffing card-game for 2 to 6 players. The game itself exists in several versions, including one themed around Renaissance Italy, though my version from Indie Boards and Cards is designed to match the dystopian setting of their The Resistance game. I’ve owned Coup for a while, and it’s a great little 5 to 10 minute […]
A short while ago, a mysterious video appeared on the internet, promising a bold mix of miniature gaming, video gaming and roleplaying in a game called Prodigy. Since then, things moved forward at a rapid pace. Previews are everywhere, and the Prodigy Kickstarter-campaign is set to launch next Wednesday, April 2nd. Have a look at […]
