D&D Encounters – Web of the Spider Queen

Dungeons & Dragons Encounter begins the new season on May 16th. Sign up now!

D&D Encounters is an in-store weekly mini-campaign played out one encounter per session, with sessions every Wednesday. This is a great introduction to Dungeons & Dragons.

Please see the Dungeons & Dragons Encounters Page for more details.

Although these sessions have five players, there will always be ONE open seat at every session for new players. First come, first served.

Players are asked to purchase a $5 Gift Token to participate.

We are looking for a Dungeon Master to run the 8pm table. If you have experience running a D&D campaign and you can handle the fame and glory of being a Dungeon Master, contact us in person at the shop.

New Additions to the Open Game Library

A whole bunch of new games to add to the Open Game Library.

mmmmm…new game smell!

Thanks to:

Abaddon

Designed by Richard Borg (he of Battlelore and Memoir ’44 fame), Abaddon promises to deliver cosmic conquest.

From the publisher:

It’s the distant future and mankind has taken a galactic leap forward through space, time, and technology. Life as we know it struggles to endure on the ABADDON. Once the home of a mysterious, non-human civilization, the planet is now a desolate wasteland bearing one immensely precious resource: Feronium power crystals. The unimaginable energy contained within the crystals is coveted by two groups of humans: the Satellite City-States and the Commonwealth Alliance. Using giant bio-mech suits called Links, made from modified military vehicles and alien technology; the warring factions fight a weary battle for territorial control of the ABADDON.

Available now in Fort Collins at The Haunted Game Cafe.

Catan Junior Now Available at The Haunted Game Cafe

From the Publisher:

Explore the Seas! Catan: Junior™ introduces a modified playing style of the classic game giving younger players the opportunity to experience the world of Catan! Designed for players as young as 5 and is a perfect introduction to the Catan series of games for kids and families.

Catan: Junior™ takes place on a ring of islands where 2 to 4 players build hideouts, and the mysterious Spooky Island, where the Ghost Captain lives. Each island generates a specific resource: wood, goats, molasses or swords and players can acquire gold.

Each player starts with two pirate hideouts, then builds ships in order to expand their network. The more hideouts y
ou build, the more resources you may receive. You use your resources to build ships, hideouts or get help from Coco the Parrot. Just watch out for the dreaded Ghost Captain!

Be the first player to control seven pirate hideouts and you win the game!
