I love the board game Castle Panic! It’s a lot of fun with one friend, five friends, anywhere in between, or even by yourself. The mechanics are simple which make it a great game for people who are more casual in their tabletop gaming.
Well, this July, Fireside Games is looking to release Castle Panic Big Box which will include the base game and all three expansions! Also, seven promo cards and five promo towers will also be included. This is a big deal and, if the price is right, will be a big deal for fans of the game.
Unfortunately, we don’t have an exact date, nor a price, but I’m still really excited for this release. Here are the details on the expansions:
The Wizard’s Tower:
Your Castle has been rebuilt, and a friendly Wizard has joined your forces. As long as his Tower stands, you have access to powerful magic spells. And you’ll need them, because the Monsters have returned stronger, faster, smarter, and with new abilities to threaten the Castle. You’ll fight against magical Imps, evasive flying creatures, and more. Make your stand against six new, dangerous Mega Boss Monsters, including the Dragon and the Necromancer. Use fire to attack the Monsters, but beware, your Walls and Towers can be burned down as well!
The Dark Titan:
Players must stand together more than ever as The Dark Titan Agranok returns from banishment seeking vengeance. He will lay seige to your Castle with help from new Monsters, such as the Dark Sorceress, Elite Monsters, and a Boom Troll.
You get more reinforcements with the Cavalier, Boiling Oil, and Support Tokens, such as the Supply Wagon. Play them wisely and you could save the Castle. But Agranok and his team have many tricks and can overpower you if you don’t stay alert!
Engines of War:
The expansion introduces a light economic mechanic to the world of Castle Panic. The Engineer uses new Resource cards to build Catapults, Ballistas, Barricades, and more to better defend the Castle from the growing Monster threat.
They charge into battle with a Siege Tower, War Wagon, and a Battering Ram. And they’ve enlisted the help of a Shaman, Breathtaker, and Goblin Saboteurs. Prepare your forces! The fight just added Engines of War!
Gather your forces. The Dark Titan is here!
