Card Games

Hey PI-Fans, Although the TCG releases seem unrelenting, over at PI Games, it's always useful for us to remember to recenter ourselves - after all we're a hobby game store. It's the manager again, with another heaping serving of board and card games making their way to our shelves, and this shipment is an eclectic one, bringing with it the classic adventuring board game in Talisman 5th Edition, a pocket-sized light strategy card game via Happy Mochi and the absolutely massive open-world exploration themed board game Vantage. We've also gotten a Dungeons & Dragons themed restock in our door with the D&D 5.5E core books and starter sets back on the shelves with a happy heaped serving of classics like Machi Koro 2, Ticket to Ride, Wingspan games and Catan! Our weekend crowds are still buzzing along with regular Age of Sigmar, Horus Heresy and Magic the Gathering games as [...]

Designed with a whole series of team-based Catan-themed minigames, Dobble Catan eschews the usual lighter mechanics for several unique area-control mechanics that see players sprawling off a set of [...]

It has been one of those periods recently where we've watched titles slowly pile up in port and then suddenly arrive together, causing headaches as we attempt to figure out how to fit all of it in our store. Despite this headache arriving alongside the MtG: Spider-Man prerelease, it's a good problem to have. If you've been watching Catan stocks every dwindle into unobtanium, you've probably been clued into the fact that something's been brewing. We're happy to announce that Catan Sixth Edition is back on the shelves bringing with it all the settling, resource hoarding and passive-aggressive robber placement you've come to expect of this classic game. It even came with an amazing trailer attached that has no right to be as epic as it went. [...]
