This summer two extremely popular European titles will be arriving from Passport Game Studios. Arriving on July 12th is is the two player “futbol” game, Soccero, which has been a hit with soccer fans around the world. Following on August 9th comes Castaways which is a semi co-op in which two to four players are stranded on a deserted island yet, no matter how well they work together, only one will be rescued.
From Passport:
The most realistic soccer experience!
Designed to serve the skilled and strategic mind – but just as in real life soccer, luck can always bring an unexpected challenge!
You and your opponent play as team managers. Move the players and the ball on the game board using specialized dice. The team that scores the most goals by the end of the game wins! The basic rules make it easy and fun to get into the game. Extended rules add even more to the realism of the game and make it more challenging. Experience goal kicks, corner kicks, throw-ins, free kicks and penalty kicks.
Shipwrecked!
Castaways is the adventure and negotiation game you’ve been thirsting for.
Do you have the wits to survive on a deserted isle? Build a camp, explore the interior, reach the summit…scan the horizon for a rescue ship. You’ll need the help of the other survivors, but in the end only one of you will be rescued. If there is no rescue everyone loses!
Known as Náufragos in other part of the world, Passport is the exclusive publisher of Castaways in North America. The game plays with plenty of storytelling: during the game you will collect story points. If you are rescued, your tale will be told around the world—but only if you have the best tale to tell! Of course, if you are not rescued, no one will hear your story…
