What we’ve been playing lately:

— Mare Nostrum Empires Review — [01:29:36]

A fascinating mash up of Euro style resource generation and management game and folk on a map wargame that we are loving.

— Star Tycoon Review — [01:52:31]

Build a galactic corporation in this tableau building economic game that has all of us hooked. A surprisingly good next step game for fans of Splendor and/or Catan.

So much more than just one new bot for your Robot Quest Arena Games. This bot also provides new defense cards and portal tiles.
