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 [...]
