Asmodee has shared details on three game releases for spring: Splendor, World of Tanks: Rush, and Lewis & Clark.
Designed by Marc Andre, with art by Pascal Quidault, Splendor is a card game that casts players as wealthy Renaissance merchants, acquiring precious stones to trade for development cards (mines, ships, artisans). The development cards are used to acquire more gems, to create jeweled pieces that will lead to enough prestige from clients to become the best-known merchant in the realm.
The box contains 35 precious gem tokens, 5 gold tokens, 90 development cards, 10 noble cards, and rules. The game is for 2 – 4 players, ages 10 and up, and plays in 20 minutes. MSRP is $39.99, and the game releases in March.
World of Tanks: Rush, designed by Nikolay Pegasov, is a deck-building game based on the World of Tanks free online game. Players command a squadron of tanks, with the goal of destroying the enemy stronghold. The game relies heavily on interaction, as players start with only a simple set of barracks cards and must race to build the best deck of tanks and armored vehicles against their opponents.
The box contains 100 tank cards (25 each from Russia, Germany, France and US), 48 medal cards, 30 barracks cards, 12 achievement cards, 15 base cards, 5 reference cards, a first player card, a tank graveyard card and a free promo code for a tank for the online game. The game is for 2 – 5 players, ages 10 and up, and plays in 30 minutes. MSRP is $34.99, and the game will release in Q2.
Lewis & Clark is a historic board game, designed by Cedrick Chaboussit with art by Vincent Dutrait, where players take the role of explorers tasked by President Jefferson to chart the American West. Players must manage resources, recruit natives, and race to be the first to set up camp on the Pacific coast.
The box contains 100 resource hexagons, 8 resource multiplication markers, 5 expedition boards, 12 boat tiles, 18 Indian figures, 84 character cards, 10 route change tokens, 8 resource badge tokens, 5 scout figures, 5 camp tokens and a game board. The game is for 1 – 5 players, ages 14 and up, and plays in 30 minutes per player. MSRP is $$49.99, and the game releases in March.
