Took me some time to get this post together, but wanted to make sure I shared out on Distilled plus some other games we played this year while at Gen Con. There are new games coming to my collection from Kickstarter, namely Return to Dark Tower and Unmatched Tales to Amaze, those will be covered …
Friends, we had Gen Con. It was different than past Gen Cons, but it was Gen Con and after a crushing year off, it was back this year, baby! Those of us who attend are extremely lucky to get to experience such joy for 4-5 days every year, I hope each reader has found their …
Unmatched: Cobble & Fog is the latest to come from Restoration Games Unmatched series and if you are interested in this game, it’s a very exciting expansion.

For fans of, or those just curious about, Unmatched by Restoration games — the restoration of Epic Duels — we set up a page as a portal to all of our Unmatched content! We are also starting to break down the decks, to understand the structure of the special cards and basic cards that make …
Unmatched by Rob Daviau and Restoration Games was one of the most talked about games at Gen Con 2019, and you might say I have a special interest in the game. You know I’ll cover it here. I’ve already been asked, “Ok, so is it better than Epic Duels?” and more than once. Unmatched is …
