Hey PI-Fans, The Betrayer's War expansion for the Descent: Legends of the Dark board game is an absolute doozy. Arriving in a massive box almost the same size as the original, the game of cooperative 3D dungeon crawling returns with a massive expansion to the main in a campaign that takes on the role of Act 2 of the journey of the heroes through Terrinoth. Building on the original, the game will continue to send heroes questing across a variety of different terrain and encounters as they seek to end the threat of the Waiqar the Undying, Dragonlord Levirax and the monstrous Uthuk Y’llan. Whether they succeed, on the other hand depends on the skill, luck and tenacity of the players in this App-Driven Game-Masterless dungeon romp.

Hey PI-Fans, Are you troubled by strange noises in the middle of the night? Do you experience feelings of dread in your basement or attic? Have you or your family ever seen a spook, spectre or ghost?

These ghastly supernatural interlopers serve as a 'death clock' of sorts for [...]

Hey PI-Fans, Are you a fan of Civ style games? Perhaps we have a game for you. Portal Game's Brazil Imperial presents an euro-style take on the traditional 4X game (eXpand, eXplore, eXploit, eXterminate). Brazil Imperial is played on a modular map board that recreate real regions in Brazil during the 16th century,, utilising a combination of worker placement mechanics, engine building and area control to dominate the differing eras.  Designed as a midweight empire-builder, players take control of a colonial power seeking to make your mark on the country by expanding their imperial control over the passage of three eras. Players are tasked with contructing cities, farms and mines to produce wood, sugar cane, coffee, raise armies and march out to explore (and occupy) the country.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SxYQAXW03xw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXcl9VyGcP4
