Fun:
- Early holiday greetings from your favorite meeples
- Can you count the number of gaming bits in the jar?
New Games:
- Race for the Galaxy: Alien Artifacts: Next expansion for the RftG universe, this presents a whole new way of playing the game. It is completely incompatible with earlier expansions and gives you a new exploration mechanic where you visit the Alien Orb and search for powers and victory points. Release likely next year
- Briefcase: Newest in the deck building crase, this one has a financial industry focus. Build a business by acquisition and then have the abilities of that new division to help you with the rest of your game. Release sometime in 2012
iOS:
- Ascension: Return of the Fallen has been released (and if you ask me is an awesome expansion to the original)
- Starving Gator – the iPad version of Hungry Hungry Hippos, for those with small children – available now
News:
- Apparently board gaming made NPR’s Morning Edition. They interviewed the designer of Risk: Legacy who talked about his game and how it’s different by permanently changing the board game based on previous plays
- According to retailers, classic simple board games like Monopoly, Stratego and Sorry are all coming back. Parcheesi is making a comeback too according to a store in Mamaroneck.
Happy gaming!
