In April, WizKids will release Endless Pass:  A Viking Saga, from freshman designer Nuria Casellas.

In Endless Pass, players try to earn a place in Valhalla by fighting their way through the scaly “Endless” that reside within the Endless Pass.  To help them along the way, they can discover weapons and runes and ways to recover from their wounds.  Each turn, action cards determine their ability to attack, defend, or evade the Endless.  Of course, being Vikings, players can also battle each other.  To claim a space in Valhalla, players try to earn 10 Glory and survive to the end of the turn, or simply be the last Viking still alive.

Endless Pass:  A Viking Saga includes 155 cards, 6 tokens, and 6 double-sided Viking sheets.  The game is intended for 2 to 6 players, ages 14 and up, and plays in about half an hour.  MSRP is $24.99.

Also coming from WizKids in April is the Lovecraftian-themed A’Writhe (see “Contort the Elder Gods In ‘A’Writhe’”).
