Occasionally we feature a post from our friends at The Malted Meeple. This time around, we have their coverage of this year’s Gen Con.

We’re back from Gen Con and are excited to share all of the tales and treasures from the “Best Four Days of Gaming!” We were happy to see many of you this year in Indianapolis. And for those of you who weren’t able to go, don’t worry, we brought plenty of the fun back with us. After all, we braved the crowds and the lines to bring back a few armfuls of games just for you! 

The most exciting part of Gen Con for us is seeing the new games fresh off the line. It is always interesting to see the merging of innovative game mechanics, beautiful art work, and fun themes.

This year there were several new exciting titles including: Fantahzee, J’accuse, Mystic Vale, Oceanos, Brewin’ USA, Tides of Madness, Escape the Room, Treasure Hunter, Pandemic: Reign of Cthulhu, and Harry Potter: Hogwarts Battle. Many of these games will not be in stores until the fall, but we brought them back early for you to enjoy!
