NOTE: most expansion just add complexity (not fun) so choose carefully!

***See bottom of this page for the expansions that I have (many with links)

Doomlings

Doomlings is a fairly quick game played with a unique card system (over 100 different cards). It is just going into manufacturing now and should be delivered in December.

I liked it so much that I created a website for it … which now has over 150 articles!

And the game designers even sent me a prototype of the game! So we can play it now! Anytime we want! I’m ready for a game of Doomlings!

More info about Doomlings? Just visit my website (use the Quick Guide links to get a taste for the game)
