RESTOCKS.
We have finally restocked fan favourites Bomb Busters, Toy Battle and Splendor Duel. Toy Battle was one of my best games of last year. If you haven't played it - don't be fooled by the cute themeing. It's accessible but also CUT THROAT if you want to be.
All three of these titles are must plays (in my opinion) so go and wish list them - if you haven't already.
NEW RELEASES - CULT OF THE NEW!!
Is it just me or has 2026 been a slooow year for new games?! Is there a 2026 release you think we are missing from the library?
Light Speed Arena - is a mega quick, real time space battle! Scoring is completed by an app which takes out fiddliness so you can focus on the chaos. I know apps in board games aren't for everyone but I'm down if it's utilised well and I'm pretty into this. Fantastic as a wee little board game entree.
Quick play of Light Speed Arena Feya's Swamp - I'm counting this as a 2026 release (take that BGG!) as it wasn't available in Australia until this year. I haven't had a chance to jump into this one yet but the art style is so endearing. Feya's sits in our Mid/heavy weight category.
Look at that little Axolotl!!! Heart throb. Rail Road Tiles - A reiteration slash sequel to the classic roll and write Railroad Ink.
OTHER NEW GAMES
How to Save a World - Worker placement your way out of a planet killing asteroid!
Flamecraft Duals - 2 player, cute, cliky clacky token goodness.
Hitster the Music Card Game - I'm pretty hestitant to stock games in the Library that are available at Target... but Hitster looks really fun and I am a sucker for trivia.
Settlers of Catan Junior - This actually does such a good job of finding the core of Catan and making it a bit less nasty for families and kids.
Star Wars Battle of Hoth - A Star Wars reskin of Memoir 44.
Witchbound - It totally feels like a point and click video game.. on paper. Solo heaven 😍
SAYING GOODBYE
Saying hello to new games means we must also say goodbye.
