Chris from Deep Water Games talked to us at PAX Unplugged. Here’s what Chris could tell us about some of their new games:

Fantastic Factories – a dice placement game; the dice are your workers. “Train” to manipulate dice, “build” to add new factories, “manufacture” components to upgrade factories. Your goal is to have the most efficient factory in a limited number of turns. Plays up to 5 players or can be played as a series of solo puzzles. Suitable for gamer kids ages 10+. (Around $40)

Welcome To New Las Vegas – coming around April 2020. A sequel with new layers of strategy and new layers of scoring. Two sheets: one to build casinos and bonuses! Now score in columns as well as rows.

The original Welcome To… will also see two more expansions in 2020.

Trial of the Temples – a prequel to Mystery of the Temples (which we reviewed) and Realm of Sand. Build tier 1 sets to get rewards and climb to tier 2 then tier 3.

Claim 2 – a sequel to Claim with five new factions. It can be mixed with the original Claim, or played on its own.
