Longish hidden movement game (think Fury of Dracula) with a very simple gameplay. Compared to the predecessor, Letters from Whitechapel, this title has been greatly streamlined. Mum and dad caught me a few steps away from my last kill :blobcat_sad: Right now I am waiting for Beast to be delivered, as I am trying to get more into the genre

Sunday arvo, I played some 2P back-to-back.
7 Wonders Duel - Prefer this to the full game, less chance of getting negatively affected by two neighbouring players.
Radlands - Multi-use cards, lane-battler, kind of like Netrunner-lite. Fun gameplay with plenty of permutations. I wish this game had realistic art rather than cutesy/cartoony, that way I could tell if the praise is mainly for the theming or the solid-gameplay.
District Noir - 2P only set-collection with 1930s gangster cards. You only get to collect 5 cards, once per round. Do you collect early or late? Timing makes all the difference. Still working out strategy to this, and whether there is enough substance and control in the gameplay. Fun to play and look at.
Did you get a chance to try out the Cult of Chrome expansion for radlands?
No, I don't have it.
Does it balance anything out?
It's pretty great! It revises one rule that caused some games to drag on for a long time especially with new players (cards can't restore themselves) and rebalances some existing camps that were a bit too effective.
This is in addition to all the really interesting new camps of course! Definitely worth it if you've played the game more than 100 times like me :>
Nice.
I'm now looking at getting it.
We already roll in the updated 1.2 rule, about 'no self restores allowed'.
