![Origins Game Fair 2016 VII: Defenders of the Last Stand, Fate of the Elder Gods, Shark Island, Superhero Solitaire, and Gloomhaven](https://cf.geekdo-images.com/feFXXldBFj2pswryMb8AKQ__thumb/img/RTj3BGhPZdqIhx1VH1NFn8K2mrw=/fit-in/200x150/filters:strip_icc()/pic3075584.jpg)
• Fate of the Elder Gods — another Launius design, put together with Chris Kirkman and Darrell Louder of Greater Than Games — has you trying to bring about the end of the world by summoning your Elder God before anyone else can summon theirs.
• Our Launius trilogy ends with an overview of Shark Island, a co-design with Pete Shirey from Upper Deck that pits one shark player against everyone else in the water and on the shore. Can the shark create enough terror in time to win?
• Are you ready to fight crime and defend the forces of good while putting red cards on black cards? If so, then have a peek at Superhero Solitaire from Robert Kouba and 8th Summit's Jason Maxwell, which transforms the solitaire game Klondike into a special-powered bash-up.
• Isaac Childres' Gloomhaven from Cephalofair Games takes the prize for "longest demo video" at Origins 2016, but the game has a lot to show off and is hugely anticipated, so it was good to bank that time at the show. (Lesson learned for Gen Con since it's good not to feel too stressed to shove in every game possible when you want to highlight something people really want to see.)
