Ken and Robin have oft been accused of being cards. Well, we can deny it no longer. We have become super-limited promo cards<\/a> for Murder of Crows<\/em>, Atlas Games\u2019 fast-paced card game of murder and the macabre, for two to five players in the mood for something a little morbid. It’s Edward Gorey meets Caligari, by way of Edgar Allan Poe. Wait a minute, what does that graphic say? I\u2019m not so sure about this\u2026<\/em> \"\" Ken fans who did not partake of the Kickstarter can now sink their fangs into the general release of the <\/a>Dracula Dossier<\/em><\/a> from Pelgrane Press, consisting of the Director’s Handbook<\/em> and Dracula Unredacted<\/em>. \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This episode also brought to you by Joe Dever’s Freeway Warrior<\/a>, Kickstarting from now until July 7th. Survive the apocalypse with the blazing return of Joe Dever\u2019s classic game books, now from Askfageln.<\/p>\n
