Who Dares News on February 10th
Well hello there. Its been a while but as there has been such an abundance of news nay an avalanche of the stuff, it’s all over the place clogging up my mailbox and spilling out all over the door mat making a terrible mess. I’ve been sweeping it into a corner but now I’ve lost […]

Luchador! Mexican Wrestling Dice 2nd Edition
WDR Silver
In the recent Christmas episode, one of our guests was the wonderfully cuddly Mark Rivera, designer of this very game, I was shocked nay embarrassed to spot that we hadn’t reviewed the second edition of Luchador!

Blood Rage
WDR Gold Essential
I’ve had a love-hate affair with Cool Mini or Not while it can’t be argued that their games offer an abundance of glorious trinkets I’ve found them often lacking in anything substantial. Zombicide for all of its multi-million dollar success is essentially a box jammed with great looking minitures in search of a set of […]

Side Quest
The dungeon crawling card game genre has proved popular of late the excellent Welcome to the Dungeon and riotous Cutthroat Caverns both spring to mind.
