Posted on by Leave a comment

Five years after its initial release, the smash hit Fantasy Realms is getting a major upgrade that will be a must-have for any collector’s shelf and a great way to get new players excited about this classic combo-licious card game! The Deluxe Edition includes new sleek, intuitive graphic design. The base game cards have also been updated to feature new art from Anthony Cournoyer that matches his beloved work on The Cursed Hoard expansion, giving the entire game a fresh look!

Fantasy Realms Deluxe Edition includes:

  • The original base game with all new art and graphic design!
  • The Cursed Hoard, which includes two expansion modules, also with new graphic design!
  • The Jester and Phoenix cards, previously only available as promo cards!
  • 100+ art sleeves to protect all the included cards, plus some extras!

In Fantasy Realms, you build your Realm, one card at a time, as you collect Beasts, Armies, Wizards, and more! Each card is unique and scores points based on the other cards in your hand. You start with seven cards, and each turn you’ll draw a new card from the deck or discard, and discard one card from your hand, always trying to improve your Realm! Whoever’s realm scores the most points is the winner! This game is light and easy to teach, but the versatility and tough in-game choices hook players of all experience levels.

Free Radicals

WizKids has announced the upcoming release of Free Radicals, a futuristic game of knowledge and influence!

In Free Radicals, each player takes control of one of the ten fully asymmetrical factions that make up the interconnected community of Sphere City, a thriving community built underneath The Sphere. Each faction has its own mechanics, goals, themes, and challenges, but all make use of the same core data cards, favor system, and Sphere research tracks. Throughout the game, players will also be able to assist other factions in their research, earning them favor and additional rewards, while hopefully not helping too much! 

Each faction provides different themes and challenges. They include:

  • Farmers – Use domino-style tiles to plant crops in your vertical farm, and feed the city efficiently as possible!
  • Couriers – Use your drones to pick up and deliver goods to various locations around the city. Time your deliveries carefully, as values are always changing!
  • Artisans – Make technology beautiful! You’ll use the Data Cards that the Sphere provides as tools to create intricate Hardlight Constructs!

Over the course of 12 rounds, each player gathers Resources, Data, and Credits, advancing their Knowledge, gaining Favor, and Awakening the Free Radicals! Each player’s turn sequence will look different based on the selected faction, but each will be working towards the goal of leading humanity into its next stage.

By the end of the game, the player with the most victory points wins the game and will lead The Sphere into a bold new future! Pre-order Free Radicals from your Friendly Local Game Store today! 

Components

  • Over 300 faction-specific components for 10 different factions!

Race your Friends through the Dungeon Mazes of Undermountain in Dungeons & Dragons: Dungeon Scrawlers: Heroes of Undermountain

Dungeons & Dragons: Dungeon Scrawlers: Heroes of Undermountain

Wizkids has announced that Dungeons & Dragons: Dungeon Scrawlers: Heroes of Undermountain, a wildly entertaining scrawling adventure for the whole family, is now available in North American game stores!

In Dungeons & Dragons: Dungeon Scrawlers: Heroes of Undermountain, up to 4 adventurers are drawn together to delve into Undermountain, an immense underground of dungeons created by the Mad Mage, Halaster Blackcloak. Use your markers to trace your path, defeating Monsters, casting Spells, connecting Artifact Fragments, and collecting shiny Treasure on the way! The round ends when one player defeats that dungeon’s mighty Boss, so you only have a few minutes to collect as much loot as possible! The player with the most points after exploring three dungeons is the winner!

At the beginning of each game, players pick one of five Characters, each with a thematic ability that helps them collect one type of points more easily as they draw their line through the maze. Normally, Treasures need to be outlined and Monsters need to be entirely covered with marker to be collected. But Rogues only need to touch treasure, and Barbarians only need to fill in the monsters’ heads to defeat them!

While anyone can cast a spell by tracing an intricate pattern, a Wizard only needs to draw a small circle!

Dungeon Scrawlers contains 10 unique mazes of increasing complexity, introducing new challenges as you go. These include portals, locked doors, multiple bosses, time limits, and more! With multiple paths through each maze, and over 100 different 3-maze combinations, you’ll never have to stop scrawling! Dungeons & Dragons: Dungeon Scrawlers: Heroes of Undermountain is available now, so pick it up at your Friendly Local Game Store or online today!

Solve 7 All-New Cases in Detective Rummy

Detective Rummy

WizKids has announced the upcoming release of Detective Rummy, a rummy-style card game that breathes new life into Mike Fitzgerald’s classic Mystery Rummy series!

In this 2-4 player game, players take on the roles of Detectives vying to solve a series of 7 different cases and gain fame in an immersive noir setting! The story begins at the legendary Rummy Detective Agency, and each case takes you to various locations to solve a crime, including the diner with the best doughnuts in town, the cozy Quarter to 3 Bar, a ritzy fashion emporium, the circus, the most elite jazz nightclub in town, and more!

The cases in Detective Rummy can be played in two different ways: Campaign Mode and Case Mode. In Campaign Mode, you play all 7 cases in order. In Case Mode, you can play Cases 2 to 6 as standalone Detective Rummy games one at a time. The game also has a ton of replayability – the new Game Changer cards featured in each case are discovered in a different order (if at all) each time you play, so cases will never resolve the same way twice! You can play both the campaign mode or the individual cases as many times as you like!

Detective Rummy is for 2 to 4 players ages 14 and up. Games take 45 to 60 minutes.

Discover All the Potential the Galaxy Has to Offer in Star Trek Missions. Beaming Down in February 2022

Star Trek Missions

WizKids has announced Star Trek Missions, featuring the same combo-building gameplay as the Kennerspiel-nominated Fantasy Realms!

In this galactic take on the combolicious classic by Bruce Glassco, you’ll unite familiar characters, locations, and gear from the Star Trek universe in strange and thrilling new configurations! Assemble a crew with anyone from Commander William Riker to DaiMon Bok, grab a Bat’leth, and take on challenges like organizing a Diplomatic Conference or getting trapped in the Holodeck!

In Star Trek Missions, your goal is to assemble the highest-scoring combos possible by drawing cards from the Galaxy deck, the Mission deck, or the discard area. The cards are worth varying point values depending on the other cards in the player’s hand. As players want to have the highest-scoring hand at the end of the game, they’ll want to find the most valuable combinations of galaxy and mission cards during play.

Star Trek Missions is deceptively simple to learn, but its depth is as vast as the cosmos itself. Each turn, players will draw one card and discard one card. But even a single discard can be the difference between a prosperous victory and a failed mission.

Gather your crew and boldly go where no man has gone before in Star Trek Missions, hitting stores in February 2022!
