Designers and Publishers Speak at BGG.CON 2012 III – Nox, Noir, Master Plan, Pixel Tactics, Kill the Overlord & Legacy: Gears of Time
Board Game: Legacy: Gears of Time
Designer/publisher Ben Harkins from Floodgate Games talks about an expansion he has in the works for Legacy: Gears of Time that he hopes to debut at Gen Con 2013 in August.


Board Game: Nox
Steffen Brückner's Nox, published by HUCH! & friends, has been picked up by Passport Game Studios for distribution in the U.S. and Passport's Bobby Stickel both explains the game and talks about other titles coming from the company.


Board Game: Kill the Overlord
Kevin Brusky from APE Games gives an overview of D. Brad Talton's Kill the Overlord, which debuted at Gen Con 2012 in August and hit retail stores in November 2012.


Board Game: Pixel Tactics
In addition to licensing games to other publishers, Talton publishes his own material through Level 99 Games, with the Level 99 Games Minigame Library being a big release from him that's due out in mid-December 2012. The Minigame Library contains six games in seven small boxes, and in this video, we look at Pixel Tactics.


Board Game: NOIR: Deductive Mystery Game
Talton also gives a rundown of one of the four games included in NOIR: Killer vs. Inspector.


Video Game Publisher: Level 99 Games
To close out the trilogy of Brad Talton videos, he talks about Master Plan, a simultaneous race for a goal with players creating platforms for movement – as well as traps – from the cards they have in hand.


And to wrap up the video coverage of BGG.CON 2012, let's follow Beth Heile on a non-virtual reality tour of the exhibitor hall complete with pirouetting turns and smooth transitions from aisle to aisle.
