Tristan has also been Kickstarting again. This time funding Shadows of Kilfort, the eagerly anticipated follow-up to Gloom of Kilforth. You can learn more about Tristan's latest game here:

This week Tristan and Leki found themselves all alone presumably after the others got fed up with all the betrayal!

We made the best of it by taking control of Waterdeep's nefarious factions in a race to uncover the secrets of the Vault of Dragons; a Dungeons and Dragons themed adventure card game by Gale Force Nine.

We also played Spirit Island by R Eric Rauss; a co-operative hand management/area control game where players control the guardian spirits of an island against the colonial powers of Europe.

We play Middle Earth: The Wizards and The Game of Thrones Board Game

This week we grabbed our archeology tools and dusted of ICE's 90's CCG Middle-earth: The Wizards. We were playing a variant of the rules known as 'The Ardour'.

We also cover the friendship smashing experience we had last week playing The Game of Thrones: the Board game form Fantasy Flight. The Game of Thrones is an area control game that sees each player controlling one of the houses of the seven kingdoms in a struggle for the Iron Throne.
