Uk Games Expo 2012 interview with Mayfair Games CEO
One of the biggest (if not the biggest) supporter of the UK Games Expo is Mayfair games. The publishers and brains behind Settlers of Catan pretty much anywhere in the world make the heck of an effort to support conventions and exhibitions such as this, and we were lucky enough to catch up with Larry Roznai, the biggest brain in Mayfair, and ask him a bunch of questions about a bunch of everything.

UK Games Expo 2012 interview with organisers
This an interview that took place at the UK Games Expo this past May with the two main organisers who, I bet you anything, are just as amazed at how this expo has taken off in such short time.
I think you’ll be interested in what they say. Because it is interesting.
No. Really. It is.
Unboxing ‘The Message: Emissary Crisis’
As you may know, I am a sucker for good artwork and strange games. This game sounded a bit of both.
The artwork in the cover was more than enough to awaken the Final Fantasy fan in me and the fact that it is based on a videogame that’s popular in the Far East was the icing on the cake.
Thanks to Swan Panasia for providing with a review copy of this game.
Ischadra, Grandmother of Assassins
“She wears the guise of a doll, a child-like construct of porcelain and wire, but cold sentience seemingly teems in her empty eye sockets. She stares with an eerie mute silence, giving you a moment for your brain to adjust to what it is seeing. A doll given life, bestowed with an ancient weapon of vengeance and purpose. With an inhuman leap her blade buries deep in your throat. As the last of your lifeblood spills her words take form in your mind, and you know why the Grandmother of Assassins has come.”
Star Trek: Expeditions
I don’t hate to be wrong, but I really hate to be wrong like this. I broke my own rules, which was stupid in and of itself, and I deserve the outrage that I will be receiving from people who I told were wrong. So, here goes: Reiner Knizia can make an Ameritrashy adventure game. There. I said it. I’m even prepared to say that as highly improbable as it is, the game he made is not only not atrophy your testicles from boredom, it in fact is brilliant fun. I still can’t believe it myself, but it’s true. Star Trek: Expeditions (ST:E) is a really, truly fun, thematic co-op adventure game that not only adheres to its theme, but does so well.
