Hey PI-Fans,
While it’s worth mentioning that some of us are prone to making ‘Information is Ammunition’ jokes, the Games @ PI crew is looking for to have capable, responsible and self-motivated individuals to join our team.
We’re looking for retail staffers interested in joining us in both part-time and full-time capacity.
Interested? Check out our staff roles and responsibilities and contact info@pi.com.sg with your resume.

Hey PI-Fans,
The Stockvalanche just hit and a wave of new titles has just swept away the staff in a deluge of cardboard and plastic.
Did you just assume the Holiday was over?
A long long time ago in a galaxy far far away… a new wave of ships for the Star Wars X-Wing Miniatures game roar into battle. Swarm of nimble TIE/fo Fighters flit around in duels with Resistance T-70 X-Wing and RZ-2 A-Wing space superiority fighters, while the forces of Scum & Villainy bolster their ranks with Mining Guild TIE-Fighters. Canny commanders looking to bolster their ranks can also look forward to X-Wing Resistance and First Order Conversion Kits, now available.
Closer to home, on the battlefields of the 31st Century, giant humanoid mechanical war machines known as BattleMechs dominate the field of war. Two BattleTech boxes: the BattleTech – Beginner Box and BattleTech – A Game of Armored Combat arrive with all new miniatures and maps (including new sculpts of designs never seen in ages). BattleMaster, anyone? We’ve also got Shattered Fortress as the BattleTech timeline grinds inexorably forward past the Dark Age into uncharted territory.
Now the board games, and this one’s huge.
Incur the wrath of Vul-kar in Fireball Island – The Wrath of Vul-Kar as your adventurers traverse the island, trying to stay ahead of the fireball spewing spirit. And don’t forget The Last Adventurer expansion, which ups the number of adventurers on the island to five.
Then, all good things must come to an end. With the Oblivaeon expansion closing out the series, the Sentinels of the Multiverse playset is finally complete as well. Don’t forget to pick up the Benchmark, Stuntman and Void Guard packs as well.
Then there’s GEN7, the latest game in the Crossroads series. An international colony ship has left an exhausted Earth, headed for a distant planet in the Epsilon Eridani system. Now, just as a new command team takes control of the ship, a terrible mystery emerges that will threaten the entire mission. The commanders of Gen7 are about to discover that everything is not as it seems, and the fate of the human species will hang on the choices they make.
Then there’s Scythe Encounters, a mini expansion and the Burning Wheel RPG.
Then. Restocks. Colt Express. Catan. Eldritch Horror. Magic Maze. Spyfall. Unlock. Heroes of Terrinoth. Puerto Rico. Resistance Avalon. Power Grid. Kingdomino. Deception – Murder in Hong Kong. Bang!.
More.

Hey PI-Fans,
You asked for it. Well… it’s back.
Hey PI-Fans,
In support of the Make-A-Wish Foundation Singapore, Games @ PI is teaming up with the Dungeons & Dragons Adventurer’s League Singapore community to go delving for a good cause.
Deep in the Greypeak Mountains the fire giant warlord Baron Ugarak has enslaved hundreds of small folk to toil in his iron mines furiously extracting elementally infused ore for an as yet unknown purpose. Surrounded by a monstrous army and decidedly shady allies, the Baron poses a dire threat to the goodly folk of the north.
Each ticket is $20, and includes a reroll, a drink, a catered meal (Halal) and a trinket to commemorate the occasion, and profits from this charity game will be donated to benefit Make-A-Wish Foundation Singapore.
Places are limited, so do register early to avoid disappointment.
Hey PI-Fans,
There’s really not much time left to Christmas, but we’re keeping the lights on and the stock flowing. After all, people need games for the holidays, and we’re going to try and put as many smiles on the faces of people as possible.
After all, it’s what we’re here for.
Worn out your character sliders? Want to add a new level of swank to your copy of Betrayal at House on the Hill? The Betrayal at House on the Hill Upgrade Kit includes six pre-assembled and double-sided character cards with dials sandwiched between the two sides to accurately track your character’s Speed, Might, Sanity, and Knowledge with ease! Accompanying these beautiful character cards are eight premium dice featuring custom pips in the eerie, pearlescent green and piercing, bright yellow color scheme of the well-known Betrayal at House on the Hill Base Game box!
In Magic: The Gathering – Heroes of Dominaria Board Game, players take on the role of a powerful hero as they travel to the lands of Dominaria. As the player explores the ancient lands they create leylines to more mana. Using the mana, they power abilities and recruit heroes to aid in quests. They rediscover lost artifacts, and confront the sinister Cabal in order to gain the resources needed to save the multiverse before rival heroes do.
In the grim darkness of the far future, there is only war. Warhammer 40,000 Dice Masters gives you another means to wage war in the Dark Millenium as players assemble teams of iconic characters and warriors to battle it out for supremacy. Warhammer 40,000 Dice Masters uses the game system designed by Mike Elliott and Eric M. Lang for Dice Masters and is completely compatible with other games in the line. The Battle for Ultramar box pitches the inexhorable forces of the Death Guard against the stalwart Ultramarines, while the Ork WAAAGH! and Sons of Russ expansions add all new factions to the game.
Hey PI-Fans,
With Christmas just around the corner, you’ll have to pardon us if we seem a bit more busy than usual.
Of course, we’re going to keep doing what we do.
So have at it.
In Tiny Epic Zombies, survivors are always on the run, collecting weapons, killing Zombies and working toward completing objectives. Completing 3 objectives can win you the game but if you’re too focused on the objectives, the Zombies will overrun the mall and that will be the end of you. Killing a Zombie is actually pretty easy… but they just keep coming. Keeping them from overrunning the entire mall, while trying to accomplish your objectives, that is hard!
Legend says if the Tower of London Ravens are lost or fly away, the Crown will fall and Britain with it. In Tower of London, players fight for control of the tower using their influence to occupy different buildings and gather ravens. Each turn players play two cards: the first card determines which building their Beefeater (guard) goes into, and the second card has a special power that triggers from the perspective of the Beefeater just placed. At the end of a round, certain areas of the tower are scored based on who controls the majority of buildings, by having the most Beefeaters in each.
Soar to dizzying heights in the electrifying cooperative adventure. Work as a team to explore a mysterious platform that floats at the center of a savage storm. Connect a circuit of cables to launch a secret rocket — all before you are struck by lightning or blown off to the depths below. It’s a high-wire act that will test your team’s capacity for courage and cooperation. One false step and you all could be grounded…permanently! Forbidden Sky, the latest installment in the Forbidden… game series takes you to new heights with several novel challenges, including collectively planning a terrain using only limited information and constructing a real working electrical circuit.
Dungeons & Dragons is a roleplaying game which needs little introduction. This special alternate art core gift set contains a special limited art version of the D&D Players Handbook, Monster Manual, Dungeon Masters Guide and DM Screen.
Hey PI-Fans,
2018 has seen the arrival of several new Games Workshop board games, the launch of the A Song of Ice & Fire Miniature Game, a new edition of Star Wars X-Wing and more. With another year drawing to a close, perhaps it’s time to look into storage solutions.
Games @ PI is taking pre-orders for Feldherr Cases at a Singapore dollar price of 1.7x the Euro listed price on the Feldherr Website (https://www.feldherr.net/). This price is inclusive of the shipping cost.
Please note that for tracking purposes, you will need to be a Games @ PI Member to place an order. Please make a full deposit upfront for orders. Final date for orders is 16/12/18.
With a range of Hard Cases, Backpacks and Sponge Trays, Feldherr provides miniature carry cases you can take your miniatures anywhere in safety. These cases were designed for use with war, sci-fi and fantasy game mini figures & miniatures, but can also be used for other types of hobbies.
Hey PI-Fans,
It’s us again, doing our usual thing – keeping a store full of cool stuff ready to go to good homes.
Also, in the interest of staff sanity, we’re going to try to keep the Christmas Carols to a minimum this year. Not that we’re against them or anything, but after the 73rd round of Jingle Bells, the staff begin to go a little stir crazy.
That becomes a problem.
In the meantime, the new stuff keeps flowing.
Once again, rival schools have come to Onitama to see who has the dominant Art — but something is different this time: Their activity has attracted the attention of a wind spirit! This indomitable force will interfere with the students, but it may on occasion grant an unforeseen benefit as well! The Onitama: Way of the Wind expansion includes a wind spirit, a neutral game piece that creates a new layer of interaction in the game. Two new move cards are included, as well as eight wind spirit cards.
As a Koi, you spend your days swimming to and fro with the goal of gobbling up as many dragonflies and frogs as you can every day. Your tranquil koi pond begins with some decorative stone and a few lily pads, but you will also receive natural beauty cards in your hand that allow a player to add more lily pads, cherry blossoms, ornamental stone and frogs — which both enhances the beauty of the pond and causes turmoil beneath the still waters for the other fish. At the end of seven days, the game comes to an end, with the best-fed fish being declared the winner. Be wise, be quick, or go hungry. Persevere and you shall succeed.
Kids on Bikes is a Collaborative World Building RPG set in small towns with big mysteries. In Kids on Bikes, you’ll take on the roles of everyday people grappling with strange, terrifying, and very, very powerful forces that they cannot defeat, control, or even fully understand. The only way to face them is to work together, use your strengths, and know when you just have to run as fast as you can.

Hey PI-Fans,
Night gathers, and now your watch begins.
Steadfast Lannister Halberdiers form unyielding hedges of polearms while nimble Stark Outriders nip at the flanks, yet all this pale in scope as a third faction storms onto the battlefields of the A Song of Ice & Fire Miniature Game.
The Night’s Watch has come.
– RECORD SCRATCH –
Or… you know… we could just talk about the Singaporean Dream, a card game about paying, stealing and saboing your way to becoming the ultimate Singaporean.
Why no?
We don’t judge.
Hey PI-Fans,
I might have personally taken a short a sabbatical last week, but the gears of industry keep turning, and in the short time I was away, a flood of stuff came in.
Here’s a catch-up list of what’s flooded in over the last week I was away.
Board game wise, if horror is your jam, step back into the House on the Hill with Betrayal Legacy, and shape the development of the ill-fated building with an all new a campaign themed mode. Or take to the streets of mist shrouded Arkham to face off against the servitors of the Elder Gods in an all new edition of Arkham Horror. Then there’s World War II like you’ve never seen it before with Axis & Allies & Zombies.
Feeling like stretching your legs? Consider Discover: Lands Unknown, a wilderness survival and exploration game with a unique game experience in each box, or go spelunking with Heroes of Terrinoth, FFG’s all new dungeon crawling card game. Alternatively, you can diver straight back into the wasteland with the New California expansion for the Fallout boardgame.
Looking for something a touch lighter? Try the all new edition of Condottiere or the D&D themed Dungeon Mayhem.
And that’s not even counting the restocks. Santorini, Dominion, Stone Age, Ticket to Ride, Munchkin, Scythe, Terraforming Mars,The Arkham Horror LCG and more…
