Review | Summer Blockbusters
Great Games Based on Movies
In a world… Coming this summer…
From Jaws to Jurassic Park, summertime movies are a great way to beat the heat. So make some popcorn and check out some of our amazing movie-themed games!
Die Hard
Play through three thrilling acts of plane-jumping, motorcycle-racing, thug-punching madness and adventure! Up to three of you will play as thieves, hacking vaults and secretly signalling to each other in your efforts to stop John McClane. Only one of you plays as this hardened street cop - you’ll have to manage your cards and plot your path carefully if you want to get past the thugs and kill Gruber.
Yippie-ki-yay. Plot your path, watch your cards, it’s a good day… to Die Hard.
A fantastic cooperative game for those who like to play one versus many!
Ghostbusters
Now that you’re in the private sector, it’s time to become the best in your field - even if that field is ghost hunting. Compete against your friends to become the best Ghostbuster as you collect cards and capture ghosts. How you win is up to you; prioritize capturing high scoring ghosts, gathering gear, fighting off ghost slime, or gathering collections of like ghosts for extra points. With this simple card game you will bust the competition.
A simple card game with dynamic work, excellent for a casual game day.
Hellboy
Occult threats are moving in on our world… and who better to stop them than fellow monsters? Join the Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense and investigate these threats with your friends. Each of you play as a character from the Hellboy series, complete with detailed miniatures! Each game starts with a top secret file so you never know what you’re about to face off against, just that you’ll be working together!
Perfect for fans of Hellboy, investigative gaming, and cooperative play!
Munchkin Deluxe Harry Potter
Represent your Hogwarts house and stand against other witches and wizards! Every player starts off at level one with a hand of cards. These cards can be used to increase your stats, level up, and trip up your opponents. Join clubs, gain allies, and do well in your classes to get extra abilities to further vault you ahead. Face against familiar monsters like pixies and Grawp, collect treasure like Invisibility Cloaks and Remembralls - and become the first character to graduate to level ten.
If you like messing with your other players and love the world and art of Harry Potter, Accio this game immediately.
Thanos Rising
Thanos has arrived, and you have to work together if you want to stop him. Assemble a team of superheroes, collect cards and roll dice to prevent Thanos from collecting all six infinity stones. Take down seven villains to thwart Thanos or challenge yourself to go after even more. You may only need to defeat the villains to win, but if Thanos collects all of the Infinity Stones, defeats ten heroes, or eliminates a team, he wins! However, if you work together… victory is inevitable.
If you’re still crying over Endgame (pffft not us, no, never) work together with your friends to make even more memories.
Lord of the Rings: Journeys in Middle-Earth
Based on a movie, based on a book! You don’t need to visit New Zealand to live the whimsy and adventure of Middle-Earth. Journeys of Middle-Earth throws you into J.R.R. Tolkien's iconic world, guiding you through an adventure in a larger campaign. The companion app will guide you and up to four of your friends as you work together to fight foes, battle dark forces, and explore spectacular sights.
Fabulous for those who love games that tell fantastic stories affected by your choices!
