Hey PI-Fans,
It’s the PI Team again. We’re pretty predictable in this regard and those who know us should have noticed by now that every time we post, it’s typically because we’ve put up another spread of board and card games for your perusal.
Up on the shelf this week are a pair of Space Puppies games, with Space Puppies and Space Puppies Eclipse drifting their way onto the locally designed game shelf. Alongside them is the Century Big Box, a chunky compilation of all the releases in Emerson Matsuchi’s Century Trilogy of games. If you’re in a fidgety mood or gaming with young ones, consider Cubeez as well, a little speed based dexterity game where players race to assemble their Cubeez blocks into position to match the instruction cards. Rounding out the spread for the week is Toy Battle, a two-player lane battle board game which simulates the tense strategizing of a light area control challenge as players deploy toys to overcome their opponents.
All these titles and more can be found at our friendly local game store retail location – alternatively you can pop on over to our webstore to grab yourself a copy today!

TOY BATTLE
On land, on sea, in clouds, and even in space, battles are breaking out between toys. Your troops need your tactical talent to lead them to victory.
In Toy Battle, each player deploys toy troops on whimsical boards—from castles to jungles to space stations.
Your goal: capture the opponent’s HQ or collect the most medals. Carefully consider the special abilities of your toy collection and deploy them where they can successfully make the most impact to sweep your opponents toys from the region and capture their headquarters while defending your own.

Space Puppies is a fun and out of this world card game that combines two things. You guessed it, space and puppies, genius.
The planets have left their orbits and we need our Space Puppies to restore balance in the universe. Because loyal dogs are the only ones who can save humanity. (cos we all know cats only care about themselves).
This game is for anyone who is a puppy lover, astronomer, or anyone who enjoys relying on both luck at strategy to defeat their opponents. All other cards in the deck are used to steal, mitigate or avoid getting attacked! Collect 3 planets, or 40 points, to win.
