Scout Report by J.T. Wanner
Dungeon Twister, the Card Game: a two-player-only take on Dungeon Twister with the entire game converted into cards. As in the original game, players in Dungeon Twister: The Card Game build a team from the characters and objects available to them, then head into the maze to try to navigate the hazards by using their action points each turn to move, rotate rooms, collect items, and combat opponents, making their way to the opposite side of the maze while avoiding – or taking out – the opponent's characters along the way.
Spyrium: Based in an imaginary world where England has been transformed into a Steampunk atmosphere. Your goal? Build factories, using workers who produce a substance known as Spyrium. Producing Spyrium in one factory, then processing it in the next results in victory Points.
Deep Wars: Campaign based skirmish game. Mordheim style. Vertical and horizontal movement because its all underwater. Game designer is or had a marine biologist on staff when he wrote it so the environment has true aspects. Terrain is interactive in that some of it will attack you and grab you or hinder you. The models are fantastic. The best part? There is an easy way to create and build your own models or faction! Someone has apparently sat down and made a Merfolk army with all the reaper Merfolk!
Timeline - Historical Events: JFK’s assassination, the 1st step on the moon, the last crusade ... Can you put all these events correctly on the timeline? The first player to get rid of their cards wins.
