Basilica is another new game which puts you in the role of cathedral builder extraordinaire. It's a game where two of you battle to be the best builder, and let me tell you, when I say battle, I mean battle. Things are going to get feisty

As Eddie Izzard once said, over here in Europe we've got tons of castles. So many, that we've all got one each.

With a name like Unlucky Adventurers, you might be wondering if it's a game of complete luck. The answer is a bit of yes, and a bit of no.

Cubitos is a racing game from John D. Clair (Dead Reckoning, Mystic Vale, Space Base) and Alderac, which mixes frenetic jockeying for position with bag-building.

It makes me enormously happy - smug, almost - to say that Klask isn't just good in the context of "for a poor man's crokinole". It's just brilliant.

Designer extraordinaire - Reiner Knizia - created this deck-building game of exploration and adventure. Does it scratch that mosquito bite yearning for jungle escapades?

Guns or Treasure is a quick card game which pitches rival players as pirates, aiming to take the most treasure, and with it, infamy!
