Two New Gameworks Essen Releases
Posted by James (admin) on 26th August 2011
I have been very impressed by GameWorks’ games as they’re always so beautifully produced with real attention to detail. The box inner for Tikal II not only had specially moulded sections for all game parts but each section was numbered and these matched the numbers in the rules. Last year they released: Tikal II, Water Lily and Sobek. This year GameWorks have two new games:

Tschak
Tshcak is a trick taking game where players go through 3 levels in each of 4 dungeons. The images of the cards released show various adventurers, monsters, spells and so on. One of the green adventurers looks to be inspired by a certain laser disc videogame adventurer which is cool. The info on the game revealed so far doesn’t give much away but the goal is to get all the treasures and no monsters. However, Tschak is designed by Dominique Ehrhard who designed the superb, and superbly simple, Water Lily and Lascaux, so I will definitely give this one a try. Plays 2-4 players in 30-40 minutes.

Bonbons
This is a memory game to get candy but with a twist because it seems you can also steal back some of the candies other players have won. I don’t know much more than that. Plays 2-6 players in 10-20 minutes.
