New Game Round-up: Martin Wallace and Osprey Head into the Wildlands, and Renegade Challenges You to Prowl Carefully

The great evil has fallen, taking the capital with it. Where once there was a kingdom, there is now only the Wildlands. In this lawless fantasy world, gangs must battle it out for survival, treasure, or maybe even glory. Players control rival factions, each with a unique deck of cards dictating their abilities across the battlefield. Some focus on ranged prowess, some on raw strength, and others on the tactical synergy between characters, offering a wide range of playing styles to explore.

Wildlands contains everything you need to dive straight into the frenetic fantasy world of Wildlands. Each skirmish sees players attempt to outwit, outmaneuver, and overpower their opponents as they fight for riches and glory, scoring points by defeating enemy characters and collecting treasure. Familiarity with your favored faction will help, but adaptability is the key to victory, as a semi-randomized set-up and double-sided board means that no two battles will tell the same tale.

This is one of our most exciting projects to date, and the release of Wildlands is only the beginning. Ongoing support will see the fantasy world expanded through additional factions, maps, and mechanics, offering players new challenges to face and environments to explore.

"I've been designing games for a few years now and sometimes you wonder if you are just revisiting old designs and themes", said award-winning designer Martin Wallace. "Wildlands was an opportunity for me to do something off the beaten track: a fast-moving, tactical combat game with asymmetric special powers. I was very pleased when the design found a home with Osprey Games, who have done an amazing job of developing and refining the system, as well as applying an engaging thematic background. They did fantastic work with London, so I'm expecting this to be simply awesome when it finally hits the shelves."

In the heart of the sleeping city lies incredible wealth. While the gates to the city are well guarded, no one is watching what's under their feet. The dead of night provides just enough cover for you to tunnel towards untold riches to plunder the city from within. Act quickly, as a rival thief has the same plan...

In Prowler's Passage, you and a competing thief burrow into the city through a network of underground passages to grab valuable items while attempting to gain control of key districts. Steal the best items, create the longest tunnels, and control districts to become the premier prowler!
