WDR TV – Shadows of Kilforth Review
WDR Bronze
Loving myself some good old rollicking fantasy adventures the opportunity for a bit of wander in a new world beset with shadows and orrible beasties was just too much of a temptation to avoid. Shadows of Kilforth is the sequel and stand-alone expansion to Gloom of Kilforth: A Fantasy Quest Game. It is a game of high […]
Stak Bots Purple Expansion
WDR Silver
Stak Bots is something of a family affair, it’s a series that has grown up with my kids it was Ollie my now teenage son’s first board game crush. It’s hard to believe it’s been five years since I first encountered its malevolent little robotic gits at the now-defunct Chi-Con on a cold December morning. […]
Critters Below

Now you travel down the Anduin river, hoping to regroup while […]

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.
