Everything Old Is New Again – Catan New Energies, 7 Wonders Duel for Middle Earth and Ticket to Ride Paris – 29/3/25

Hey PI-Fans, We keep piling boxes into place and they keep arriving. Arguably that's a good problem to have, even while we run ourselves ragged stacking things up. This week sees new renditions of three modern classic board games with 7 Wonders, Catan and Ticket to Ride all landing new spinoffs on the store shelves. Landing this week are the eco-disaster Catan: New Energies, a new Catan variant that places the game on a death-clock towards ecological disaster, changing up strategies and build orders as a hazard timer slowly ticks down, placing all players under pressure to make the switch to green technologies. If you want something faster and more bite sized, up next is Ticket to Ride: Paris, the newest addition to the Ticket to Ride city boxes, this time taking a detour to the streets of the storied French capital. Trundle through the city on a trolley bus [...]

Mass Effect, Finspan and Tiny Epic Dungeons: Stories – 21/03/25

Hey PI-Fans, It's been a crazy week as we run around making sure things happen. Between roadshows and pallets dropping from out of nowhere, chaotic doesn't begin to even cover it. On the other hand. Crazy busy means more games. Games are good. We'll begin this week with the big guns. In the case of Mass Effect: Priority Hagalaz, guns is a literal thing. Designed by Eric Lang and Wong Tze Loon, this Modiphius release features a branching cooperative campaign for four-players that will see teams shoot their way through a ruined Cerberus Cruiser alongside the legendary Commander Shepard and fan favorites Liara, Tali, Wrex and Garrus. Swimming in with the tide is Finspan, a brand new addition to the Wingspan family that takes the familiar mechanics of the original but rebuilds them for aquatic adventures. As a researcher tasked with exploring the ocean and studying aquatic life, players will [...]

Magic the Gathering: WPN “Mechanically Unique” Secret Lair

Hi PI-Fans, As a Wizards Play Network store, we've been given the slightly dubious honor of being able to order the upcoming Magic the Gathering Secret Lair Box. We say 'dubious', because the only information we've been provided regarding the set is that it is in their own words 'Mechanically Unique' and plausibly Marvel themed. The above image provided by them is likewise about all the information we have on the subject. What does this mean? We have no idea. What is the theme? We also have no idea. These are apparently the contents of the Secret Lair: Product content: - 5 cards (non-foil), 1 of which will have unique mechanics  This is all the information we have available at the time. Quantities will be subject to availability from distributors. The item is expected to release on the 25th of April. If you are interested in embarking on this blind [...]

Azul Duel, Mr Wolf, Ubongo,The Brain Game to Go – 04/03/25

Hey PI-Fans, We've unpacked another pile of board games this week, with a new kids title, a two player board game and a pocket puzzle making their way onto the shelves. The big ticket for this week is Azul Duel, a two player variant of the classic board game Azul. Featuring a variant scoring system rebalancing the tile drafting mechanic that defines Azul for a two-player showdown, Azul Duel deserves a spot in the collection for anyone looking for a neat two-player experience. Parents looking to getting the young 'uns started with gaming, can take a look at Mr Wolf, a kid friendly memory game themed around finding barnyard animals and hustling them back to the barn before night falls and Mr Wolf comes out. Rounding out this week is an amazing pocket-sized puzzle Ubongo - The Brain Game to Go, a tiny puzzle-based adaptation of the Ubongo speed game, [...]

Town 77, Superstore 3000, Horrible Therapist – 25/02/25

Hey PI-Fans, More boxes open, more games come out. This week sees a pair of strategy games coming off the pallet with the tile placement games Town 77 by Oink Games and Superstore 3000 by Space Cowboys. On the lighter party end of the food chain, anyone looking for a card game of questionable implications would be remiss to overlook Horrible Therapist by Exploding Kittens games. We'll keep the games flowing and the boxes moving on our end folks. Hope to see you in the store for some casual gaming or hobby sessions sometime. In the meantime, as always, Play Games, Have Fun!    Kenneth, PI Games Manager Horrible Therapist is a game by Exploding Kittens about making comics with unpleasant implications.

Magic the Gathering: Final Fantasy – Emergency Solicit

Good morning PI-Fans, We don't normally enjoy waking up to a live grenade dropped into our laps, but such is life.  Our distributor informs us that they are expecting market demand will exceed inventory by a large margin so we've just been requested to gauge our market demand for the upcoming Final Fantasy set with quantities due 23rd Feb. Due to this we actually have no real idea of the prices of the items in question but we expect prices to be tied to the Premium markup similar to what we were charged for Modern Horizons 3 previously. Don't quote us on that currently as this is pure guesstimation  You can use our previous Modern Horizons 3 preorders as guesstimate prices, but we cannot guarantee they are accurate as the distribution channels cannot guarantee us regular prices or margins at the moment. If you'd like to help us out in [...]

Survive the Island, Seti, Heat Heavy Rain – 19/02/25

Hey PI-Fans, As we continue working our way through the pallets, it's time for the hernia inducing big boxes. After much swearing, loading these down the stairs through the building's back entrance, we've hauled the cooperative crowd pleaser SETI: Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence up to the store. For those seeking a lighter title (both literally and figuratively), the HEAT expansion HEAT - Heavy Rain has also come in alongside the headliner, adding new wrinkles to the race. Survive the Island on the other hand is lighter still, being a reimplementation of the much sought after 1982 board game classic Survive: The Escape from Atlantis. There's an equal share of weird stuff along for the ride, including the official BattleTech cookbook, 'Chandrasekhar Kurita's The Art of Food - Recipes of the Inner Sphere' if you're looking for an absolute oddball in-universe product. Here's to a great week of gaming and we hope [...]
