There is a HUGE announcement from Out of the Box that I’ll post Sunday, when it’s announcd at the New York Toy and Game Faire.
I’m serious. In the hobby gaming world, this announcement will be very, very big.
I won’t be going to New York year – too much work to do, here. Especially on the British Apples to Apples edition. And anyway, it’d be too sad, now that the 2nd Avenue Deli is officially closed.
But anyhoo, here’s some of the cool new games that Out of the Box will be showing at New York this year.
I think this is our strongest lineup of new games ever, and I’m really excited about all of these…I can’t wait to own my own copy of each and every one. Especially Cineplexity, Pepper, Abridged and 10 Days in Asia…
APPLES TO APPLES PARTY EXPANSION TWO
The perfect companion to the Apples to Apples Party Box.
The fun continues! Mix the 576 new cards from a Party Box Expansion Set with the cards from the Apples to Apples Party Box for thousands of new and outrageous comparisons!
