has gone old school with the look of Steve Avery
's Ta-Da!
, which will debut at Gen Con 2016 ahead of the game's Q3 2016 release date. Here's an overview of gameplay:
This year's annual Wizard Talent Show promises to be an exciting event with skilled witches and wizards attending from far and wide. Players will attempt to prove they are the most talented and deserving spellcaster of the bunch.
Ta-Da! is played over a number of fast-paced, frantic rounds. Each player furiously rolls dice in an effort to collect the elements needed to cast their spell. With each roll, players can add one die to their spell, then must reroll the rest. As soon as they have completed their spell, they yell "Ta-da!" and they're one step closer to winning the Talent Show.
However, game-changing feats will be in play throughout the game, making players perform crazy acts as they play, such as making animal noises, keeping their heads on the table, and more!

— is Krosmaster Arena 2.0
, which adds eight new figures to the Krosmaster
universe in a standalone game that's compatible with all of the figures previously released.
has announced that it will release its own version of Seiji Kanai
's cooperative 1-8 player dice game Eight Epics
in October 2016.
• And here's a notice I should have seen earlier: AEG is closing out
game line with the release of the Blood Moon Rising
expansion pack in October 2016, after which it will return Doomtown
to owner Pinnacle Entertainment Group. AEG notes that "Pinnacle does not have any immediate plans to continue with the Doomtown
ECG product at this time, but may look to do so at some point in the future."
has announced two more Justice League Hero Dice
titles from Andreas Schmidt
for the line that it launched in late 2015 with Superman
and Batman
.
As with those two titles, Flash
and Green Lantern
— available in separate English and German versions, but only in Europe — are both solitaire dice games in which the player tries to take out villains that appear in random order. In addition, any of the titles can be combined with one or more other Hero Dice
sets to allow for multiplayer games.
Wonder Woman and Cyborg are depicted in the marketing images for these titles, so expect two more such games down the road.
