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

Wreckland Run Review

A fully-resettable campaign game for one player which is quick to play, fun, and doesn't take up an acre of table space? Yes indeed, what a great game.

Scout Review

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 Review

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.

Verdant Review

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

Micro Bots: Duel Preview

The thrill of a re-purposed bread bin knocking seven bells out of a Tupperware box with a knife, is hard to beat. While Prometheus Game Labs' Micro Bots: Duel might not be quite as violent on your table, it's a cheaper and easier option for 1v1 robot carnage

The Shores Of Tripoli Review

The Shores of Tripoli is a two-player, event-driven wargame from Fort Circle Games. It's set on the Barbary coast of North Africa at the turn of the 19th Century, and it's great.

Eleven Review

Eleven surprised me. Eleven has shown me that it is possible to make a good game based around a sport, as long as it doesn't try to directly mimic the sport itself.
