At ACD Games Day, Alderac Entertainment Group was previewing the upcoming addition to its hit Smash Up card game line.  Smash Up: Monster Smash is planned for September release.
 
This edition is Halloween themed, and the four factions featured in this iteration are vampires, werewolves, mad scientists, and giant ants.  Each 20-card faction deck can be smashed together with another to create a 40-card play deck, for two-player battles.  Monster Smash can be combined with other Smash Up games to create interesting faction play, as well as expand the game to four players.
 
The box will contain the four faction decks, victory tokens, and rules.  MSRP is $19.99.
 
AEG Director of Sales & New Market Development Sean Lashgari noted that the upcoming Smash Up: Big Geeky Box is also planned for release around the same time (see "'Smash Up: Big Geeky Box'").
