The demo table for BIGFOOT: Roll and Smash, from XYZ Game Labs, looked minuscule next to the looming monster-truck directly adjacent. The tires alone stood as tall as me! To our surprise, this monster-truck was the first monster-truck ever, Bigfoot, the very same truck featured on BIGFOOT’s box! I

Septima Gen Con preview — Bewitched by an enthralling theme

One of my favorite new themes at this year’s Gen Con belonged to Septima from Mindclash Games. In Septima, players lead their coven to prove their witchcrafting worth and succeed the high witch Septima. Crony shenanigans include harvesting herbs, brewing potions, healing townsfolk with said potions which may or

Omicron Protocol Gen Con preview— when Theta Protocol doesn’t cut it

When Bernie of Dead Alive first pitched Omicron Protocol to me, it was as an entry point for the minis hobby, complete with design choices and innovations to make it more welcoming. Hex maps simplify movement, range, and line of sight, saving newcomers from having to buy tape measures or

War of the Ring Card Game Gen Con 2022 preview — The bar was set high, yet this might clear it

War of the Ring has achieved quite the legendary status since its debut. It’s without a doubt an epic 1v1 experience, but not entirely epic in good ways. The setup is epic, the teach is epic-er, and the playtime is epic-er-er. With a total playtime of four to five

Hoplomachus: Victorum Gen Con 2022 preview — The biggest solo board game yet

Chip Theory Games is cooking up a massive project and we got to take a peek. Much like the ancient poem Odyssey, and heavily inspired by, Hoplomachus: Victorum is a giant single-player epic. Described to us as “a love letter to solo games,” Victorum is certainly a very long and
