[COMING SOON] Darkest Dungeon Board Game Details at Gen-Con 2020
August 9th - via: gamerant.com
Mythic Games reveals brand new details for the Darkest Dungeon Board Game, including playable characters, skills, gameplay, and more. Fans of the difficult, Lovecraftian inspired Darkest Dungeon were delighted to hear the news last week of Red Hook Studios and Mythic Games partnership to deliver a board game adaptation. While the video game is primarily a single-player experience, this board game version is aimed at up to 4 players working cooperatively. To maintain that randomly generated feeling of the video game, the Darkest Dungeon Board Game will have players choose dungeon cards at random to determine the various dungeon designs. While players will surely be excited to back the board game when its Kickstarter goes live this fall, others are anticipating when the next batch of details will be delivered for Darkest Dungeon 2.

Kickstarter Game Developer Haiku Collection
September 2nd - via: cliqist.com
It’s a bit of a tradition that whenever I interview someone for Cliqist I ask them to put together a brief haiku to describe them, their company, or their game. Since we’re celebrating the one year anniversary of Cliqist this week I figure it would be as good a time as any to look back at some of them. All the haiku’s were written by the person being interviewed, and are listed in the order in which they appeared on the site. Some are great, some not so much, but each is interesting in its own right. (Read More)
