Your # 1 Boardgame destination has your game night covered! 

New Games! 

Bruxelles 1893













In Bruxelles constructing buildings allows you to create your most beautiful masterpiece, shown on your
 personal board. It is also possible to develop your reputation as an architect, increase your 
influence at the Royal Palace or City Hall, and even benefit from Public Figures that you meet during your theater outings. The architect who garners the most fame in the form of victory points wins the game! Cool!


Tash-Kalar: Arena of Legends 












Tash-Kalar: Arena of Legends is a game played by masters of magic. Two to four summoners encounter each other in the Tash-Kalar arena, either in teams or each on his own, and prove their skill and strategy in a short but intense battle. By clever deployment of their minions, they create magic patterns for summoning powerful beings, and then use those to destroy their opponent’s forces or to prepare patterns for the ultimate legendary beings.

Dead Panic







Zombies! Zombies! Zombies! In Dead Panic, each player takes on the role of one of eight unique characters, which have special abilities. Players work together to survive in a remote cabin, at the center of the board, against waves of the undead that close in from the edges of the board. If the players can hold out, survivors bring pieces of the radio needed to call for rescue. Once rescue arrives, it's up to each player to leave the safety of the cabin and make it out alive! 

River Dragons









In River Dragons, you want to move your pawn over a system of bridge-like planks to the other side of the board. An easy task! Or at least it would be if everyone were working together, but alas you're not. Instead you're all working on your own right next to one another, each convinced that your way is best.

New Stuff at L.A Mood!

New Game
Warhammer Disc Wars!













In a game like no other an age of warfare has dawned. Orcs, elves, and men muster in ever increasing numbers. The winds of magic are rising, and Daemons stalk the lands! That's not a typo! (Daemons are benevolent or benign nature spirits, being of the same nature of both Gods and Mortals, similar to ghosts-Now you know..or at least I know)
