Brass: Pittsburgh…A place where you lay pipe and sip oil all in the name of scoring more points than your partner! In all seriousness, I really enjoyed this iteration of Brass ESPECIALLY as a 2-player biddy. It checks a lot of boxes for me. -Dani
The Queen’s Dilemma! Good friggin' grief, this game checks A LOT of boxes for me. A narrative experience that encourages politics at the table AND YOU ACTUALLY HAVE FUN engaging with it (it’s fantasy…of course). We’ve already created so many inside jokes that have bled into our day-to-day conversations and you can’t put a price tag on memories like that. End Scene. -Dani
Board Games Direct is BACK! This week we'll be showcasing a ton of new & upcoming games, bringing the excitement of a board game convention straight down a big pipe and into your home. Feast your eyes and/or brains on PART ONE: Thematic Games!
POND is a game about being a Frog who controls all the ponds! The art is so charming I had to sing about it. Short is sponsored by Brother Ming Games - https://www.brotherminggames.com/pond
Kicking off Board Games Direct 2026 we are DELIGHTED to reveal Mechs vs. Minions: Bandle City Edition, set in the League of Legends universe, originally published by Riot Games in 2016.
Incredible Dream Studios has brought the original game back in a slimmed down and more cost effective package. The Bandle City Edition contains the same missions from the original game, and replaces the plastic minis with acrylic standees and cardboard. Adding to the content in the original game, IDS have added solo challenge puzzle cards, card dividers, skin cards with alternate-art, and more. IDS is also bringing back the Classic Edition for people wanting the original experience and plastic miniatures.

"This is a solo adventure for the Call of Cthulhu game. It is a horror story set in the 1920s where you are the main character, and your choices determine the outcome. It is also designed to lead you through the basic rules of the game in a gradual and entertaining fashion. Although most such adventures are played with your friends, this one is just for you."
