Table Top Tuesdays - Quad City Killers & Master of Orion

As our collection is now over 1300 board games we felt the need to create another day during the week that we are able to teach games from our collection.

This allows us to learn more about what we have on our shelf as well as add another day for teaching.

Quad City Killers: 8.0

Quad City Killers: Murderous Fun for the Whole Family!

QCK is created in the style of an 80s board game but with a bit of a dark side.

Players compete as Serial Killers, traveling between the Quad Cities and dispatching Prey in an attempt to gain Notoriety!

Each Prey ID card has a Defense level and Notoriety score. Upon successful attacks, Players keep these cards as their Trophies.

You Attack with a combination of: - Your Serial Killer Dexterity and Victimology, found on your player board. Each gives you a particular set of advantages; - Resource cards (Weapons, Modifiers, & Scenarios), which can be used in various combinations to create an advantage over your potential victims; - and a Skill Roll using three (0,0,1,1,2,2) dice. - All this is done while trying to avoid Heat from Law Enforcement.

Each turn consists of 3 (out of 5 possible) Actions: 1. Hunting - revealing a new Prey card and placing it in its corresponding city. 2. Travel - moving from one city to another with a successful roll of the dice. 3. Attack - attempt to kill a Prey in the city you occupy using a combination of your Dexterity, Resource cards, and a Skill Roll. 4. Play a Scenario Card creating a situation where you can attempt multiple attacks. 5. Discard up to two cards from your hand and replace them from the deck.

As Players rack up kills, their Dexterity increases, but so does the heat in each city.

Master of Orion: 7.0

Master of Orion: The Board Game takes you to the world of the legendary strategy video game.

You will lead one of the races that will face each other in the outer space confrontation. Destinies of secretive Darloks, genius Psilons, universal humans, and many others will depend on your actions. Manage your resources skillfully and wisely and lead the development of a chosen race in the right direction. You can progress by either military means, training your spies and attacking alien planets, or choosing the path of creation, controlling the weather, and building space fleets.

Dynamic and well-balanced game mechanics will offer you plenty of paths to victory, and the leader of the most successful nation will be granted the Emperor's title from the Galactic Council.

Join us as we dive into the deep end of our Board Game Collection on Table Top Tuesdays this Tuesday at 6 pm.

See ya soon!
