Workshop Wednesday: Brew, Dinosaur Island & Star Wars Talisman

On Workshop Wednesday we have staffed Gamemasters ready to teach and play that week's games.

This Workshop Wednesday we are teaching and playing Brew, Dinosaur Island & Star Wars Talisman.

Brew:

Bring balance back to the forest!

Time is broken and shattered. The seasons all exist at once, and day and night have no real cycle — they rotate at the whim of the forest. This enchanted land has been driven into chaos and it's up to you, the cunning mystics of the forest, to tame extraordinary woodland creatures and use your magic to bring back balance.

In Brew, players must choose how to use element dice, either to take back control of as many seasons as possible in an area-control game or to procure goods at the local village in a worker-placement game. Recruiting woodland creatures and brewing potions can help offset chance die-rolls or create an engine to help you tame the lands.

Dinosaur Island:

In Dinosaur Island, players will have to collect DNA, research the DNA sequences of extinct dinosaur species, and then combine the ancient DNA in the correct sequence to bring these prehistoric creatures back to life. Dino cooking! All players will compete to build the most thrilling park each season, and then work to attract (and keep alive!) the most visitors each season that the park opens.

Do you go big and create a pack of Velociraptors? They'll definitely excite potential visitors, but you'd better make a large enough enclosure for them. And maybe hire some (read: a lot of) security. Or they WILL break out and start eating your visitors, and we all know how that ends. You could play it safe and grow a bunch of herbivores, but then you aren't going to have the most exciting park in the world (sad face). So maybe buy a roller coaster or two to attract visitors to your park the good old-fashioned way?

Talisman: Star Wars:

Explore the Star Wars galaxy through memorable characters, places, and events from every era within the setting of a critically-acclaimed tabletop game franchise.

Available in European, Middle Eastern, and African regions, Talisman: Star Wars allows players to compete in a circuitous race to reach Emperor Palpatine, collecting items of power along the way to confront the all-powerful Sith Lord or stand beside him as an evil apprentice!

Adventurers can choose from twelve playable characters to charge their way into the inner rings of the galactic game board. Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader, Rey, Kylo Ren, Count Dooku, and Obi-Wan Kenobi are among the custom-sculpted game pieces true to every beloved Talisman game.

Join us Wednesday, September 21st @ 6:00 pm to learn and play Brew, Dinosaur Island & Star Wars Talisman.
