Kickstart Monday: Build the Greatest Empire as the Heroes Rise

Welcome to Kickstart Monday. Your weekly spot where we feature two amazing crowdfunding projects that you will want to consider supporting. Let’s take a look at this Kickstart Monday projects!

After the Empire – Deluxe Version Reprint

Game Box

After the Empire from Grey Fox Games features a unique castle defense/worker placement set of mechanics allowing you to dive into a very thematic game experience. Our very own Justin just reviewed this game and is very excited about this game.

This is a great way for you to get a copy of the game or to order the deluxe version that won’t be available for retail. The deluxe version features a number of upgraded components. The biggest being the upgraded soldier tokens. These are just wooden blocks in the standard version, but actually are small figures for the deluxe. Other upgraded components include plastic wood and iron cubes, food token upgrades, component trays and more.

This game is certain to delight those of us who love castle sieges, worker placement, and good strategy games.

7 Moons: Heroes of Dragon Reach

7 Moons: Heroes of Dragon Reach from Gunpowder Studios advertises as a family board game set in a world of dragons and monsters for 1-4 players. You will take on the role of a royal emissary who is charged with the defense of the land. Gather resources, recruit allies, fill your war chest, and complete quests to stop the shadow army from ruling the day.

During the game you will move about the game board rolling dice to indicate your movement. You can move more quickly on horse or dragon back, should you be fortunate enough to gather the service of a noble steed. As you move about you will engage in encounters that will drive a narritive into the game of quests and other interactions.

In addition, you can play this game today on Tabletopia and give it a try before you back. If you want a lighter game you can play with your family and enjoy a fantasy adventure game then this is worth taking a look.

Top Online Gaming Platforms that You Should Check Out

It seems that more and more of us are looking to play our games using online options. Friends move away, COVID-19 happened, and just other reasons that drive us to online tools rather than our tabletops. In this article we’ll give you some of our top online gaming platforms that you should check out.

For each platform I will give it a quick review on the pluses and minuses of using it. I will also give you a rating on how much I liked it. I am using a 1-10 rating with 10 being as good if not better than in person gaming and a 1 being that this platform is like seeing a blue screen of death on your Windows computer.

Hyped Up to Unbox Viscounts of the West Kingdom

Viscounts of the West Kingdom

My wife recently placed an order online for a few games and Viscounts of the West Kingdom needed to be one of the games.

This game made it into our The Best New Board Game Releases for your 2020 Holiday Shopping list for many reasons. Since we love the other two “West Kingdom” games so much, this was a no brainer to add to our order.

We have been anxiously anticipating the third game in this series. Since it was ordered we watched the tracking impatiently, frothing at how excited we are to try this game. When it finally arrived we immediately pulled it out of the box and dashed to the game table.

  • Players: 1-4
  • Playtime (with Setup): We find it between 90 and 120 minutes
  • Publisher: Renegade Game Studios
  • Designer: Shem Phillips and S J Macdonald
