May’s Gambling Lambs got torpedoed by the General Election, and will now go ahead on Wednesday the 5th of May. Sign up to the event on Facebook here, the group here, and get regular updates or chat with us on Twitter.

New games this time include Through The Desert, which is a route building game without the rails of Ticket To Ride. The meaningless but flavourful bits of typographic garnish on the cover art are in fact Arabic letters that have been flipped, stretched and mashed up to make it prettier, and because of this nonsense we’ve decided it should be called “Unstoppable Camel Force” instead.

Board game box art is really awful, isn’t it?
