Game Previews from Nürnberg 2013: HUCH! & friends – Im großen Zauberwald, Voodoo Mania, Feuer & Flamme, and Nada!

Game Previews from Nürnberg 2013: HUCH! & friends – Im großen Zauberwald, Voodoo Mania, Feuer & Flamme, and Nada!
Board Game: Im großen Zauberwald
• At the HUCH! & friends stand during Spielwarenmesse 2013 – the annual toy and game fair in Nürnberg, Germany – HUCH! PR and marketing rep Katrin Reil, modestly pretending that her knowledge of English is far less than it is (something that Germans pretend a lot at Spielwarenmesse), gave me a rundown of Carlo A. Rossi's Im großen Zauberwald, which will be released sometime later in 2013.


Board Game: Voodoo Mania
• Other games that Reil demoed for me during Spielwarenmesse 2013 were Martin Nedergaard Andersen's Voodoo Mania, for which holding a microphone is a huge handicap during gameplay:


Board Game: Feuer & Flamme
• Feuer & Flamme, from designers Stefan Dorra and Manfred Reindl, was another title we looked at on the HUCH! stand, and I now regret not taking the game out of the display since we block the impressive display of food bits and spend a fair portion of the demo with our sides or backs to the camera, although this does give you a sweet look at my shirt. I also had the mic pointing away from Katrin's face when she explained that you lose one of your grill chips whenever you drop something on the ground, and you're out of the game should you lose all three chips. Amateur!


Board Game: Nada!
• Finally, we have Nada! from Escape designer Kristian Amundsen Østby. (Due to some confusion behind the scenes, Østby was credited in this video (and unfortunately on the box and in the rules) as the designer of Nada! when in fact the game design comes from someone on the Blue Orange Games staff.) Lots and lots of dice!
