With the new year came our new game, Glimstone Grab, years in the making and successfully crowdfunded on PledgeMe. It's set in the universe of Cheeky Parrot's bestseller, Hoard, in the forest of Much Middling, where every man, woman, child, beast and troll are trying to grab the magical Glimstones. Obviously the trolls are up to no good, so players must cooperate to guide the heroes, Esmeralda and Wizard Widdershins, so they can save the day. New designer Jonathan McGarvey and Cheeky Parrot director Julia Schiller have co-designing credits, and Hoard co-designer and artist Tim Kings-Lynne created the captivating artwork. The game was first available at retailers who backed the PledgeMe campaign and then went into general release on 20 January. We are pleased to announce that 25 Whitcoulls locations are stocking Glimstone Grab and uptake has been great so far with our other retailers.

​

Later this year we also expect to release our tenth title, FARMily Feud, by another promising new designer, Demi Ernst, and we are working on a special expansion in time for Hoard's tenth anniversary next year.

​

As always, we'll be appearing at events to promote our existing titles and playtest those under development. You'll be able to find us at the Cancer Society Games Fair (Auckland, May 10-11) and Wellycon (June 20-22). Read our February newsletter, link below, for events happening sooner featuring Cheeky games and people.
