See Food (Eat Food) – I’m A Little Crabby, Fishy, Squishy, Crusty & Quirky and Evolution: New World – 17/09/24

Hey PI-Fans, Something running through this week's releases seems to be the theme of edibility. On the lighter side of things are the Exploding Kittens' card game  I'm a Little Crabby, and Unstable Games' Fishy, Squishy, Crusty & Quirky. Anyone wanting something slightly more serious can look into Evolution: New World by CrowD games.   I'm a Little Crabby is a rebranding of the somewhat more scandalously named You've Got Crabs, though it continues to maintain Exploding Kittens brand of quirkyness. In I'm a Little Crabby, teams of two players secretly agree on a hidden action to signal to the other player that that player has successfully drawn a hand of matching Crab cards. When their teammate notices, they will point at the player and shout "You're a little crabby!" If they’re right, that team gets a point. If they’re wrong, that team loses a point. However if a player [...]

Literally Turn Over A Dog – Dokojong, Command of Nature and Casting Shadows – 17/09/24

Hey PI-Fans, Have you ever felt like stealing someone else's pet? Legal requires us to say this is a joke. The Dokojong Box Is Also Inverted. Will Anyone Notice? This week's release spread is laden with cuddly animals, with two Unstable titles ambling onto the New Release shelf - both Casting Shadows and Command of Nature come of successful Kickstarters, with retail copies finding their way into stores. The littlest game of disorganized dognapping has come along with them in the form of Oink Games' Dokojong where players attempt to abscond with the King's pets while outing their competitors. In Dokojong, 5 cabinets members have become so infatuated with the King's dogs that they have hidden them away. The King, becoming suspicious, has launched a search of the cabinet for his pets and now the cabinet members must frame up their compatriots while keeping their purloined canine safe. Dokojong is a [...]

Store Restocks – 10/09

Hey PI-Fans, Apologies for the minimal updates so far this month. September has been crazy so far, and we figured it would probably work better for us to focus on keeping the store full of product. Sourcing has see a couple of classic titles run a touch low, so we figure you'll want to know what's back. On the party game front, Really Loud Librarians has popped back up on the shelf, ready to keep you all bellowing words at each other. Likewise Poetry for Neanderthals and it's expansions are back for all your word whacking needs. Keeping on the theme of indiscriminate violence, Let's Hit Each Other with Fake Swords presents an excellent means to resolve any disputed card draw by literally having players bludgeon each other into submission with fake swords. If you were after something a touch more serious, Wingspan and it's expansions have come home to [...]

MTG – DUSKMOURN PREORDERS

In this plane-enveloping House, evil manifests Nightmares and Glitch Ghosts, sends Razorkin into a frenzy, and turns toys and shadows lethal. Come play with us – if you dare. The upcoming Magic: The Gathering Set Duskmourn takes a running leap from Magic's traditional fantasy epic aesthetic and plunges headfirst into the transgressive, edgy stylings of 80's Horror Flicks. In Duskmourn: House of Horror, players will dare to enter a plane-enveloping House where their fears come to life. Aping the style of horror classics, Duskmourn's aesthetics is a heady mix of Saw meets the Ring, with a healthy splash of Nightmare on Elm Street, The Shining and just the faintest hint of Ghostbusters for flavor. We’re taking preorders for this set, so if you want some, let us know. The Preorders closes 25/8/24. No refunds for cancellation. All orders must be placed with full deposit (Deposit will be refunded in the event [...]

Animals at War and Charming Landscapes – Air, Land and Sea and Dorfromantik: 29/7

Hey PI-Fans, This week's releases really need no explanation. Air, Land and Sea: Critters at War and Critters at War: Flies, Lies and Supplies are thematic reskins of the excellent 2-player card game Air, Land and Sea and Spies, Lies and Supplies. Redrawn with cartoon animals, the game maintains the simple elegance of the area-majority hand management card game, with players trying to play card totals which outscore their opponent in two or more of the respective scoring zones. Except with fuzzy animals. Given the Bloomburrow Prerelease we held recently for Magic: The Gathering, I'm sensing a theme. The other big arrival of the week Dorfromantic: The Board Game took home to prestigious 2023 Spiel des Jahres. Itself a board game adaptation of the surprisingly chill videogame Dorfromantic, the titular game sees players collaboratively laying down tiles representing areas of the rural countryside. In Dorfromantik: The Board Game, up to [...]
