Art Friday!

Welcome to Art Friday!  Every Friday we will be posting development artwork for upcoming games.  Of course we don’t promise that any of this art is final, but when has that mattered when getting to see something awesome? This week we have a bust shot of “Vladimir” from our upcoming game World’s Greatest Magician.  We have worked with the artist Beth Trott before and are always pleased with the quality she puts in for us.  You can find her talent in both En Garde and our newest game High Noon Saloon game, as well as being responsible for the backgrounds

GAMA Digs SlugFest Games!

We have gotten such good feedback about Red Dragon Inn: 3 and High Noon Saloon that they are both now up for the Origins Awards!  For those who don’t know, hundreds of games are sent to GAMA to compete for this award in various categories such as Best Board Game or Best Traditional Card Game.  Of these hundreds of games only ten games from each category make it to the Shortlist.  That Shortlist is then offered up to brick and mortar retailers to vote on which five games make the cut to the Nominee List.  If you are good enough to

The New Eve

For this year’s print run of RDI1 and RDI2, we changed the wording on most of the cards.  In the vast majority of cases, the reason for this was simply to make all the cards have consistent wording and to more clearly express each card’s original intended function.  However, you diehard Slug Fans out there may have noticed that for the new printing of RDI2, we made functional changes to Eve.  It’s true; we decided that Eve was badly underpowered and needed some tweaking. First, the changes.  For those of you who have an original printing of RDI2, feel free
