Sure, they say it’s good to be the king. But you know what’s better? Being the god. What’s so fun about being a god? Well, how about when you literally hurl monsters down from the heavens to punish those puny mortals who didn’t quite burn your favorite incense during worship yesterday, or who aren’t genuflecting …
Card Games
For those that have played it, Dixit is quite a bit different than your average card game. Each card has a strange and whimsical scene on it that the Storyteller player must describe using just a word, phrase, or sentence. Other players then look at their own hand of cards and choose their own card …
Super hero comics are filled with all sorts of mystical and magical heroes and items. Sure, guys like Iron Man, Captain America, and even the Incredible Hulk were all created via science, but you’ve got the Scarlet Witch and Dr. Strange whose powers all come from the ethereal. The Munchkin Marvel 2: Mystic Mayhem (Mmmmm!) …
The final game we took a look at was also a cool bluffing/blind bidding game. It’s by some of the same designers that made Sheriff of Nottingham. So if you liked how those mechanics worked, you’ll probably like how this one works, too. It’s called Kronia and it’s all about getting the right gifts to …

I don’t particularly have anything against DC Comics, but I’ve always just enjoyed Marvel more. That’s extended from the comics I read in the 90s through the products I see coming out that have the Marvel license. And with the recent upswing in Marvel movies (well, comic book movies in general, to be fair), there’s …

Well, when you have a game that’s historically-themed, but uses Anime artwork, there’s a chance you could lose out on some customers. So during their Kickstarter for Barbarossa and El Alamein, Kamikaze Games had a photographic version of the two …
Andy Chambers and Mark Gibbons.Those are two names that really don’t need an introduction for the people that tend to frequent this page. But just in case you didn’t know, Andy has been writing game rules for… oh… forever. And Mark has been doing artwork for those games just about as long. They worked together …
Raise your hand if you’re a fan of Firefly. *watches pretty much everyone’s hand go up* Yeah, me, too. I actually have been meaning to get those DVDs back out and re-watch the series. It’s a sci-fi western done right. Well, now the crazy antics of the Serenity and her crew meet up with the …
