Game Pics from Spielwarenmesse 2016
From gallery of W Eric Martin
My cameraperson John and I have been at Spielwarenmesse 2016 — the annual toy fair in Nürnberg, Germany — only one full day (and two hours of a second day), and we've already recorded a few dozen game overview videos, including Cry Havoc, In the Name of Odin, Bunny Kingdom, Cacao: Chocolatl, and Oceanos (an Antoine Bauza designer from IELLO that I need to add to the database).

Our hotel's Internet connection is miserably slow, so I can't upload any videos from here, but I plan to start posting them the week of February 1, 2016 once I return to the U.S. For now, I've been posting pics of new games (and new editions of old games) via BGG's Twitter account because each photo upload also takes longer than I'd expect it to. Should you care to look at the feed, here's a sample of what I've been posting there:
