Game of Thrones: The Iron Throne Review

Hey PI-Fans, How's your week going so far? We've got a new game review for you folks written by our guest reviewer: Wesley Tay!  In a nutshell: Game of Thrones: Iron Throne is great for gamers who love politicking, backstabbing and scheming. You don't have to be a Thrones fan to enjoy the game, because it's really all about dishing on others and protecting your own interests and people. No hard feelings, just business! And you all can have a good laugh afterwards.    Pick up the game at our webstore!    Game of Thrones: The Iron Throne Review What it's About The only thing worse than people who share spoilers are pedantic people, who ask questions like “Why did Tyrion do this? It makes no sense!” Or “How did Baelish get away with the that?” Just wait for the reveals then complain about it! As a fan of role [...]

Restocks – Exploding Kittens & Throw Throw Burrito! – September 6, 2020

Hey PI-Fans,   Good Sunday morning to you! We received lots of Kittens and Burritos yesterday evening!   Exploding Kittens & Expansions     The Original Exploding Kittens is a hot potato, party game favorite! The basic premise is: don't get the exploding kitten! Play cards to defuse, distract the kitten, attack other players and basically stop yourself from being taken out of the game! It's a wacky, goofy, frantic game full of silly!   If you need the game for more people, there's the Exploding Party Pack which scales the game to 10 players!   If you're playing with grown ups who want to really hang lose and have fun, there's the NSFW (not safe for work) Exploding Kittens box.     There are 3 different expansions for classic Exploding Kittens:   1. Imploding Kittens - which scales the game to 6 players and even has a cardboard 'cone [...]

New Releases – September 4, 2020

Hey PI-Fans, Yes folks, it's already September and the start of the school holidays! We have not 1, but 3 New Releases today: CTRL, Unlock! Epic Adventures and Forgotten Waters.     CTRL Pronounced 'Control', this abstract 3D block game is all about covering a cube with your coloured blocks! In the box, there's a cube, many coloured bricks and coloured flags. To start, claim a corner of the cube and plant your flag. On your turn, you remove your coloured flag (which indicates your starting point) add 2 bricks in a straight line to 'grow' your territory. In later stages, you can take over your friend's turf by sticking your coloured bricks on top of theirs! Scoring gets interesting where as long as you can see your coloured brick from all sides of the cube, it counts! You get more points for stacking your block higher!  A quick, highly strategic [...]

New Releases – August 25, 2020

Hey PI-Fans! We just received 3 New Releases yesterday evening: 'Chope!', 'Mooncake Master' and 'Remember Our Trip'  All designed by local Singaporean, Daryl Chow! Support local! Chope!   In Singapore, everyone knows the 'Laws of Chope', basically 'hawker table reservation etiquette.' If you see a packet of tissue placed on a hawker table seat, it means its reserved. As every Singaporean knows, reserving hawker table seats is a game of 'faster choper first': you don't slap that tissue packet down, you don't get that hawker seat. In 'Chope!', players are hungry folks trying to get their favourite hawker delights and find a table. On your turn, flip open as many cards from the centre hawker deck to see how much food cards you can get. There's Chicken Rice, Nasi Briyani, Nasi Lemak, Laksa to name a few. If you encounter 2 of the same food cards, you bust! You'll be [...]
