This Week

An early arrival this week. Well, two actually:

We Didn't Playtest This at All is a very silly, very fun, and ridiculously quick card game, ideal for filling in those two-minute breaks between other games! Start with a hand of two cards, draw a card, play a card, and try not to lose. Or better still, try and win. This is great for fans of Fluxx who only wish it could be shorter. This really is that quick. And we're selling it with a free copy  of the We Didn't Playtest This at All Chaos Pack.

And then We Didn't Playtest This Either is the sequel. More of the same silliness, playable as a stand-alone game or just make one big deck from both sets. But be warned: It's going to get very silly. Remember I told you, as they used to say on Big Brother. 

 

 

Last Week

Here's some interesting news:

Dominion: Intrigue is now in stock!  This is the follow-up to last year's immensely popular card game, and can be played as a stand-alone game (although it will be more complex than the original), or can be used as an expansion to the original, giving you 50 different Kingdom cards to choose from.

Sherwood Forest is a new game from Eggertspiele, all about planning raids and negotiating with your rival bands of merry men. Find out where certain bands will be travelling and get your men there to rob them. You can team up with other gangs, or try and mislead them with false information.

And we have the Cuba - El Presidente Expansion in stock. This is the 100% English-language version that Eggertspiele produce, so we don't have to pay the ridiculous price of the American one! Completely compatible with any English-language version of the game. 

Also in this week are the Wings of War Miniatures - Game Mats. Two rubber-backed mats, East and West sections, that you can use as a board-stroke-tablecloth for all your Wings of War miniatures games.

And Gloom - Unfortunate Expeditions is the third expansion for the rather depressing card game with the clear plastic cards! this one has all the usual extras, as well as an "expedition" deck which come into effect one at a time, changing the game for everyone until a different expedition comes along. 

 

And this week's restocks:

Cuba, The Reef, Gloria Mundi, Archaeology - The Card Game, Battlestar Galactica, Silent War, Memoir '44 Tigers in the Snow, Napoleon's Triumph, and Werewolves of Miller's Hollow are all back in stock.
