UK Games Expo 2021: Sunday Live Blog

One of the coolest games that we’ve seen this year is one that would probably appeal to more than just your average tabletop fan. The Detective Society is “an escape room in a box” which brings together puzzle-solving elements and ARG gameplay.

This seems like a fascinating way to get people sitting around a tabletop and venturing into something a bit different. Everyone wants to be the person who solves the mystery during the middle of that crime drama!

Sythopian Wars is a new miniatures wargame that is coming to Kickstarter towards the end of this year. The focus is on a reactive d6-based system which allows you to play out quick and deadly skirmishes or bigger battles.

The game also features very unique factions and miniatures from this team of brothers. Both of the starting factions look unique and different and decidedly not for the faint of heart!

Dan of Atlantis Miniatures has been creating stunning miniatures for many years now. His Dwarves are a favourite for Ben although there are also Wood Elves, Werewolves, Trolls, Giants, Centaurs and more.

Their miniatures are available in resin but you can also pick them up as STL Files. Try your hand at a bit of 3D printing and build these miniatures at home.

It is time to check out the big winners from UK Games Expo 2021. There were many awesome games and rules to choose from and many deserving winners.

Did some of the games that you voted for win big? Let us know in the comments below!

Ben talks with LD3D who have taken to Kickstarter this week to show off their new project, The Travellers Guide To Prymordia. This is an easier way for you to expand on your campaigns without diving into a huge setting book.

Instead, pick it up in chunks and have a pop at this system agnostic book. This book includes maps, lore details, encounter ideas, tables to roll on and more. It seems great for those looking to get some help with storytelling. Catch them on Twitch too!

Justin gets a chance to talk to the Vikings who have turned up once again for the UK Games Expo. This time around we learn a little bit about reenacting and living the life of a Viking but also the “realities of adventuring”

Do you think you’d like to dive in and try a bit of reenacting? These guys have a lot of fun and it’s a neat way to dive in and try your hand at something different.

Remember the team from Strata Miniatures that we showed off yesterday? Well, laughingboy from the community printed one off last night as he liked them so much AND has started painting it. It looks awesome.

You can see some of the work he has done on the miniatures down below. In addition to that, laughingboy is also going to be continuing to work on this miniature over on their Twitch Channel!
