Why you ask? Well, it’s because I’m an idiot who can’t figure out how to learn new TTRPG rulesets or DMs. With so much content en route, it’s hard not to be excited for this monster of a game.Īeon Trespass: Odyssey is currently expected to deliver in late Q1 or early Q2 2022 and is still available to late pledge here.ĭespite calling our board game section of the site “Tabletop”, we’ve yet to discuss any tabletop RPGs. The second wave, scheduled to deliver about eight months later will include the forth and fifth campaigns, Gardens of Babylon and Black Flame of Atlantis.

While the full experience will ultimately be delivered in two waves of shipping, the first wave with the core game will include the first three campaigns (Truth of the Labyrinth, Abysswatchers, and Pitiless of the Sun) delivering a substantial amount of content. A flattened surface designed to hold a player mini replaces the head as a way for players to now scale up the hydra creature to reach a new vantage point.ĭespite the global shipping issues, Aeon Trespass: Odyssey‘s development has remained largely on track. In the hydra fight, players can destroy and remove the heads from the miniature. What I find fascinating is how interactive the miniatures are. Where KD:M is emergent story telling, AT:O will take players through a written narrative and a variety of settings in a creative reinterpretation of Greek mythology. While it’s hard not to compare it to Kingdom Death: Monster from both in both design and gameplay, Into the Unknown has done an excellent job separating themselves both in appearance and gameplay. The aesthetics and the scale of this game are just remarkable. Unlike KD:M where players and monsters get weaker as the battle rages on and both parties take injuries, AT:O has a Rage mechanic where the more damage a player takes, the more they can dish out. Into the Unknown has created a world where the Argonauts actually pilot humanoid looking Titan suits a la Attack on Titan and fend off large beasts like Chimera. Aeon Trespass: Odyssey mixes the engaging combat and scale of Kingdom Death: Monster with the evolving narrative and map of Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon all stuffed into a world of Ancient Greek Kaiju Tech Monsters. This is may be the biggest one on the list, not only in size, but in hype (at least within my household).
In fact, Dinosaur World was the only game on our list last year that was released in 2021, while the rest have been pushed to 2022. As a result, some of the games we’re looking forward to have been on our Most Anticipated lists before, but it’s happening for sure this time (we think). The ripple effect of backups then pushed many games otherwise intended for 2021 back into next year. Countless games that were intended to hit shelves in 2020 were pushed back into 2021 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, while others were fortunate enough to stay on track. 2021 was the year of games that would-have-been and have-yet-to-come.
