October 16, 2023 by brennon
PWork Wargames have announced a new game that they are working on! If you're looking to get your fix of something a little Lovecraftian and weird then keep an eye out for Altar Of The Dead Gods which is coming soon.
Altar Of The Dead Gods // PWork Wargames
Published by PWork Wargames, written by Paolo Boracchi and Michele Finelli, it is a dark and powerful skirmish game set in a dark Lovecraftian universe. The game will be for two players and feature different factions for you to take control of across the Hunters and Cultists. More news will be coming out about the release date, game mechanics and more starting in November 2023!

People are really liking the idea of their "Weird" games at the moment and this one sounds like it could be pretty fun! Grimdark Lovecraftian nonsense sounds like it could be intriguing and I am interested to see if PWork Wargames are going to produce just rules or perhaps some miniatures too.

Keep an eye out for more information as we move towards the start of November!

I guess that is one way to sell game mats and scenery. Let’s hope they do not forget to also make a game that is fun to play. Given all the skirmish games that already exist, they better bring something good to the game mechanics. At least for me, miniatures will not be good enough for me to get into.
The game is a lot of fun and fast! We have plans for expansions and additional materials, and there will certainly be a playmat, tokens, and scenic elements. We have many projects in the works for Altar and other Pwork games in the future… but for now, our focus is on the Ancient Gods and their followers! 🙂
Glad to see it’s out!
I’ve been following the development of the game in the last two years, and I think it’s important to mention the author (Paolo Boracchi), consiering that pwork is just the publisher and nothing more.
He was humble enough not to put his name on the game cover, and now there are TWO different references to pwork (logo and copyright) in every single image.
We’re sorry to read that you think that way. We are, of course, the game’s publisher, but we are contributing to the project and believe in the beauty of this game. It’s true that the authors are two Italian guys named Paolo and Michele, and it’s also true that, as per the contract, the copy is provided by Pwork. We believe in teamwork, in developing a fantastic project together (or at least we’re trying to). We are a team, we work as a team, and we are the first ones to believe in Altar of the Dead Gods.

Hello, everyone! We’re stepping in because the comments require a response from us. Altar of the Dead Gods is a fantastic skirmish game conceived by two Italian guys. We’ve been following the game’s development, and we’ve loved it very much, which is why we’ve formed a partnership with them. Just like with all contracts, they remain and will remain the authors, of course! We’re contributing to make Altar even better and more beautiful, taking on the roles of publishers and producers, giving it a fresh look, and, with the help of the Ancients, making it even more beautiful than before.… Read more »
