It as a new week and we have some great new new games and accessories for Fair-Gamers to discover. Here is a quick breakdown of what has hit our shelves this week:

Magic the Gathering: Commander 2019

Commander 2019 is here with four very exciting decks to up grade your gameplay

PRIMAL GENESIS: Overrun the table with an army of massive token creatures. You may remember the Selesnya Conclave’s populate mechanic — a form of token generation that lets you copy tokens you already have.

FACELESS MENACE: Nothing is as it seems for your opponents. Fill the board with face-down creatures using Kadena, Slinking Sorcerer and the morph mechanic.

MYSTIC INTELLECT: Team up with Sevinne to flashback spells for double the value, control the battlefield, and make sure you are the last player standing.

MERCILESS RAGE: Team up with Anje Falkenrath to churn ruthlessly through your deck, discarding madness cards for extra power as you burn down the competition.

Pinnacle

Pinnacle is a strategic dexterity with some fantastic twists. Start at the table level and collectively construct a tower by moving blocks higher and higher. Orange Pinnacle pieces must always be placed on top, adding to the challenge. Play it safe or mess with your opponents. Either way, you need strategy and planning to win.

Llama

The name of the game is the key here you don't want to L.L.A.M.A. (let llamas and markers accumulate.) Try to get rid of all your cards so you don’t take any markers, but if you can’t you have a real dillama—should I pick another card or quit? Maybe you can play that card later, but if not you’ve just hurt your score. The player with the fewest markers wins in this game.

Draftosaurus

Scientists have managed the unthinkable: cloning dinosaurs! Now you are in charge of a zoo full of them. Bringing the Jurassic era alive today, this family drafting game will force you to make difficult choices like "triceratops or diplodocus?" Pick a dinosaur meeple from your hand, place it strategically in a zone on your board so it brings you the most points at the end of the game, and pass the remaining dinosaurs in your hand to your neighbor!
