A Dungeon So Nice... A Single-Take Review of Dungeon Raiders 2nd Edition

A Dungeon So Nice... A Single-Take Review of Dungeon Raiders 2nd Edition

They raided it twice! A couple years ago I happened upon a little booth at Origins: Devir Games. As an international company, Devir is still (in my opinion) a little under-recognized here in the states. I was demoing one of their new 2-player releases, Holmes: Sherlock and Mycroft, and while I was doing that AJ (co-host of Boardgames Daily) and our friend Sepos demoed another title they had at the show: Dungeon Raiders. Matt, who was working the booth and is a super-nice dude, handed me a copy of Holmes for review, and I mentioned that my friends were raving about Dungeon Raiders and I'd be more than happy to check it out too. He was hesitant, because it was an older title and not even really a Devir game but something they were distributing. But they had plenty of copies so he said: "Sure, why not?!" The rest is history. I reviewed the original here on the site, and you can check it out here. 

I really, REALLY like Dungeon Raiders, but there were certainly some things about the game that weren't very...shall we say...elegant. So, is Dungeon Raiders worth another outing? Or should your adventurer just stay back at the tavern? Best press on to find out.

Archmage Gets a Street Date! -Update!

Archmage Gets a Street Date! -Update!

Today we got word that Starling Games' much anticipated Archmage finally has a street date. The game will be available at retailers on Sept. 28, 2018. This is of course post Gen Con, which is a bit of a disappointment (I'm sure Starling is not excited about it either!), but we at least have a date to look forward to, and from what we've seen of Archmage it should be worth the wait!

Are you a backer? Are you a curious bystander? Want to see a little more about Archmage? We interviewed the designer Tim Heerema at Origins and he showed off the game on Facebook live. Read on to see that video and more!!

The Great Muppet...A Single-Take Review of Caper

The Great Muppet...A Single-Take Review of Caper

Okay...no, this game has nothing to do with the Muppets. (Please don't sue us for saying Muppets, Disney. Okay?) Caper is the latest game from Keymaster Games--about cat burglary, crazy contraptions, and criminal masterminds. Caper is a 2-player, card-drafting game of criminal intent, as players attempt to deploy the best crew of Thieves across three Locations in order to steal the most loot and score points! So does Caper crack the safe? Or should you call the police on it? Let's find out!
