Lanzerath Ridge Review
David Thompson has created an exciting, evocative game full of dice rolling, pushing your luck, and making do with insufficient actions.
Game Complexity Medium
Medium-weight games
Ynaros Fallin’ Preview
Rival Shamans face off across a magical land, a magical land which is conveniently made of hexagons. Your aim: to become the most powerful Shaman the land has ever seen.
Star Wars Villainous Review
If you're going to make a game called Villainous, you need charismatic Villains, and the Star Wars universe is full of them. Star Wars + Villainous mechanisms + a few new tweaks = Villainous 1.5, and I really like it.
Votes For Women Review
In previous reviews, I've talked about how theme is woven into games, like threads in a tapestry. In Votes for Women it's less 'weaving threads' and more like 'pick up that tapestry and dunk it in a tank of permanent dye'.
Crown Of Ash Preview
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
Heat: Pedal To The Metal Review
It all goes towards giving a wonderful push-and-pull feeling to the game, which once again, just slathers on more theme like dirty, greasy frosting.
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.
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.
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
Cartolan – Trade Winds Preview
Cartolan puts you in the role of adventurers, seeking to explore the unknown world and open lucrative trade routes with the various ports and cities obscured by the fog of ignorance.
