Full disclosure: A preview copy of The Six of VIII was provided by New Mill Industries. Some art, gameplay, or other aspects of the game may change between this preview and the fulfillment of the Kickstarter, should it fund, as this is a preview of a currently unreleased game.
Back with more new games! Normally I'd be fresh to or from GAMA this year, but I'm not going! Who even knows what cons I'll have bandwidth for this year, so get excited for my reckless disregard for the convention circuit. Sad times, but also, IDK, I got really sick from cons last year so cooling my jets a bit isn't the worst thing. Plus, GAMA moved to the other side of the country and it's not exactly easy to get to Louisville from Seattle. Anyways, I can whine about that another time. In the meantime, let's check out The Six of VIII, from New Mill Industries!
In The Six of VIII, players play a team-based trick-taking game through the reigns of the various wives of Henry the VIII, described by Cunk on Britain as a man with a chronic wife addiction. Each queen's power is most prominent during her reign, of course, so cards of her suit are trump for as long as she's in charge. Just be careful! Henry is notoriously a bit ... fickle? So things can change faster than you can say the Anglican Church or whatever. Will you be able to score the most points with your team? Or will you end up divorced from victory?
