KEY GAMES FOR BROTHER WISE

The one that started it all…

BOSS MONSTER (2013) £25

Boss Monster is a dungeon game with a twist, as instead of trying to escape the monsters that lurk beneath, you’re actually building the perfect side scrolling dungeon trap for the hapless heroes to fall victim to. With pixel art reminiscent of classic video games, this card game is full of nods to our favourite geeky pop culture references. Follow ups include Boss Monster 2, and a number of expansions, including a Vault of Villains, Implements of Destruction, and

Crash Landing.

The most recent release… OVERBOSS (2021) £45

What happens when you become such a boss, your only option is high level management? You become the Overboss! Set in the world of Boss Monster and so including video game references and nods, the game differs as a a tile drafting, map building, and set collection game.
