If you're looking for the short version of "Is it any good?", then I can confirm that yes, it is. Stick around and let me explain why.

Midhalla Preview

Ever wanted to eliminate randomness in the combat in a crawler? How about adding tower defence elements? Ahh, got your attention now haven't I? Buckle-up, Midhalla is a ride.

Rogue Angels Preview

I've played through several hours of the included campaign now, and I've got to tell you, it actually lives up to the claim. Rogue Angels is Mass Effect: The Board Game in all but name.

Death At The Dive Bar Review

If this is your first game of this sort, there's a good chance that's the first thing you said. There's a ton of stuff in the box. Physical props, flyers, a beer mat, police reports, CCTV stills, and a bag with a code on it.

Oooooooh, mysterious!

Bag Of Dungeon Review

Lots of good things come in bags. I'm a big fan of crisps, for example. But now, now dear reader, you can get a whole freaking dungeon in a bag! Bag of Dungeon is a dungeon-crawler game from Gunpowder Studios, which, unsurprisingly, comes in a bag.

Scooby-Doo: Escape from the Haunted Mansion Review

Roiks Raggy! People fall into one of two categories: those who can do a passable Scooby-Doo impression, and those who think they can. Whichever group you fall into, you'll want to call upon your inner Scoob' to get stuck into Scooby-Doo: Escape from the Haunted Mansion.

Horrified Review

The brain you stole, Fritz. Think of it. The brain of a dead man waiting to live again in a body I made with my own hands! Dr Frankenstein gave life to one of the all-time classic movie monsters in the 1931 version of Frankenstein. In Horrified, by Ravensburger, players have to work together to bring down the monster, along with his bride!
