Alex and friends embark on a chaotic quest for vengeance in the city of Dunwall while reviewing the Dishonored Roleplaying Game. A non-zero number of people get defenestrated in the process.
Machi Koro is a very light and cute tableau building game that was released in 2012. Riding on the wave of other legacy games, Machi Koro Legacy was released in 2019. Is this more fun than the original, or is it just too machi? (Warning – this review contains some spoilers for the Legacy version of the game)
Fantasy Flight has another Living Card Game releasing soon, this one in the Marvel universe. Full cooperative game play, monthly expansions, and a huge license – is this a game worth assembling, or should it just be turned to dust?
