Discover: Lands Unknown Review

One small step for man, one giant leap for cardboard. It turns out that identical components are so yesterday and 2018 is the dawning of unique games, lovingly handcrafted by the modern dominant sentient life force - the algorithm. Here at NPI we always welcome our new overlords so we were more than excited to dissect the very first unique board game (technically first, as KeyForge is a trading card game) only partially created by humans. Make room! Make room! For it is truly a sight to behold.

Treasure Island Review

A long time ago, in a year as far away as 2016 myself and Elaine got to play a prototype called Treasure Island. And ever since then we have been waiting to tell you about this cooky game we couldn’t quite believe we blindly stumbled onto. Now Treasure Island is a grown person with it’s quirks of personality. And most importantly, it is finally of a legal age to be reviewed. Expect rules, colouring pens and, of course, pirates. But most importantly, expect a very clever game under all that gloss.

Western Legends Review

Hello cow pokes! Welcome to the fastest review in the west. Well, maybe not fastest - it’s like 15 minutes long. But it’s a rootin’ tootin’ shootin’ goodun. Ok sorry, I’ll stop. Western Legends is a sandbox game that takes place in the saloons and spitoons of the wild west, where you’ll compete to be the most legendary cowperson there is. Or at least that there is, around your table. This game contains a plethora of different options - from playing poker all day to rolling two comically oversized dice to mine gold. In fact, it’s less of a game and more of a Wild West experience. Not sure whether this life of leather and dust is for you? Mosey on over to our review and find out.
