Pegasus Spiele Declares Showtime For Talisman + Win The Game!
We got to stop off with the folks from Pegasus Spiele and talk about what they have planned. As well as a great game called Showtime we also have a new version of Talisman called Legendary Tales to look out for which looks like it is going to be great for younger gamers, and the young at heart.
Win A Copy Of Talisman Legendary Tales
As a big lover of Talisman it’s great to see this game getting some more love and expanding to include different mechanics whilst still feeling true to the original spirit of the game.
Rudy Games Talk About What's New With App Assisted Scubi & Lost Galaxy
We were able to talk to the guys from Rudy Games about what they have been working on and with both Scubi & Lost Galaxy popping up on our radar.
The awesome thing about these games is that they are combined with a digital app, making the most out of modern technology AND what regular board games have to offer.
The apps that run with these games help teach you how to play them AND they offer interesting and unique options for hidden knowledge and such, especially with Lost Galaxy.
They also look very nice too!
Talking Game Design & 7 Wonders Armada With Antoine Bauza
Ryan got to have a great chat with designer Antoine Bauza about the way that development unfolded concerning 7 Wonders Armada, the newest expansion for 7 Wonders.
We get into a good conversation about game design, the reason why it has been a while since the last big expansion and what you need to know about how it has developed on the tabletop.
This is a great chat and well worth tuning in for!
Guys any chance of checking out the new Off World Kickstarter whilst you are there and letting us know what you think. Cheers
A lot of these ‘euro style’ games look so boring on the table. Area control and meeples are just not my thing.
Hope we see some Nakamura Tower tomorrow
Hmm no “Battletech” here yet?
BSG was the winner of day 3 for me!
