12 Games of Christmas - Thematic Games

[@stefanbauer7875]

Omg Vasel, what a cool tie. 👍👍👍

Still waiting on my pre order copy of Santa’s workshop 😢

[@Ian-R-Wilz]

They have gone silent on the KS page for 2 months now. Nobody has it yet.

[@JorWat25]

Wasn't this posted yesterday?

[@Drumox]

They had to fix the LotR picture since it was using the 2002 LotR The Duel game

[@jasontaylor8192]

Yes, they had the wrong box cover for Lord of the Rings: Duel for Middle Earth. It’s too bad they didn’t update the old box covers for the new Heroscape and Nexus Ops but at least it’s the right game.

[@landscaperben]

I thought I was going crazy. So this is a repost!

[@dennischaves4887]

Good to know I was confused

[@MsGinahidesout]

Me too ​@@dennischaves4887

[@kimkim-234]

It’s bold to mention Santa’s Workshop Second Edition in this list, since the campaign and Elf Creek Games have gone silent for a couple of months now… Don’t expect my copy to arrive before Christmas, or ever at all…

[@Ian-R-Wilz]

That was my thought exactly.

[@ap83978]

Was thinking the same thing. Doesn't look too good to direct people to one of Elf Creek's games right now with how they've handled their last KS campaign and pre-orders that are all MIA with no communication from the company.

[@VaultBoy13]

Yeah, all signs point to that game ending up in the bankruptcy bin. Hopefully backers see their games, but the outlook doesn't look good.

[@CactusJackter]

Is it possible to actually get Video Game Champion anywhere? Not for sale in UK/Europe yet it seems.

[@Tymbaroth]

Some shops are seling it in Belgium and the Netherlands, there is a French/Dutch/German edition

[@darrenkisgen3148]

Christmas list of games that are out of stock.

[@randalladkins7452]

Or haven’t even released in North America yet, and may not because of shipping delays. (Some of these were supposed to be out in October)! 😊

[@darrenkisgen9506]

@@randalladkins7452Right, my “out of stock” was just short hand for out of stock, only available from one place with high shipping costs, impossible to buy, not released, only incredibly expensive to buy from ebay, etc.

[@VaultBoy13]

Primal was in stock from the publisher (they just did a big print run). It looks like their site is currently unavailable, so no idea if it's still available. 7th Citadel is in stock with the publisher. Tidal Blades 2 is available from AllPlay. The following were in stock at Game Nerdz: - Heroscape - Rock Hard 1977 - Video Game Champion - Nexus Ops - Lord of the Rings: Duel - Sleeping Gods: Distant Skies - The Search for UAPs And, when they weren't available there Miniature Market had: Fateforge Rumblings are that Elf Creek Games went out of business, so Santa's Workshop is likely OOP. It really only looks like 1 of the games is out of stock, and 1 of the games might be out of stock.

[@Ian-R-Wilz]

Too bad Santa’s Workshop KS has gone silent.

[@dilatedbeholder3865]

Kingdom Death Monster

[@BoardGameHype]

Quite a lot of just newer games on here. Would like a video of older games that still stand the test of time for Christmas lol

Must have killed camilla to only get one pick on the thematic list!

[@TerrickTerran]

the description calls this 12 family games.

[@haydar8364]

Duel for Middle Earth is amazing, but a thematic game it certainly is not

[@CactusJackter]

I thought this was going to be a list of thematic christmas games, not thematic games you can buy for christmas :(

[@Xaladen]

I don't normally disagree with OPINIONS but the fact Oathsworn isn't in this list is criminal. There's a reason it's considered the best game of all time by so many. Primal is great but Oathsworn is an all-timer.

[@curtisrobinson7962]

8.9 rating on BBG Cost $350.00 Never played, but at that price it should be good

[@VaultBoy13]

@@curtisrobinson7962 Oathsworn only costs $175 (after shipping) if you're fine with standees for the monsters. Still expensive, but it's half the price you indicated.
