I grew up in the Golden Age of arcade beat-em-ups. The likes of Street Fighter 2 consumed me and my spare change for years. For a long time, there was no way to get that same feeling at home, and the rip-off games that appeared didn’t really scratch that itch (we won’t talk about how much I spent on a Japanese import copy Street Fighter 2 SNES cartridge)
Achroma – the evolving card game in the style of a collectible card game. Beautiful artwork, and maybe more?
Four undead lords seeking to avenge their betrayal by the hand of their own king. Raise an army of once-dead fighters, rebuild your strongholds, and usurp the king, claiming his citadel

On the surface, it’s easy to say Scout is a set collection game. The truth is that it’s more of a ‘carefully craft a set and then get rid of it’ game.
Atiwa hit shelves after a successful launch at Essen Spiel ’22. It’s a game about bats, and you know what? I think it might be my favourite Uwe Rosenberg game.
Flatout Games has built a good name for itself with its previous games, Calico and Cascadia. Verdant picks up the baton and keeps running, delivering another solid, clever game
