Board Games: "Dragon Mount" Details and Robo Rally Returns this Spring - Box Picture
Posted 2004-09-09 18:37:37 by damonwhite

Avalon Hill Damon White Reports: We have received confirmation that Wizards of the Coast, under the Avalon Hill brand, is planning a re-release of a new edition of the classic Robo Rally board game next spring. The game by Richard Garfield was originally released by WotC in 1994 and re-released by Amigo and 999 Games in Europe. A fan favorite the new edition is to be scheduled for a

spring 2005 release. Our source has also passed along a concept for the new box design (below).



For those not familiar with the game below is a brief description:
"In Robo Rally, players assume control of one of many "Robot Control Computers" in a dangerous widget factory filled with moving, course-altering conveyor belts, metal-melting laser beams, bottomless pits, crushers, and a variety of other obstacles. The goal in a game of Robo Rally is, apart from survival, to be the first to reach a pre-designated number of checkpoints in a particular order. However, the real difficulty in Robo Rally is movement, which is accomplished with the randomly dealt program cards."

Dragon Mount
We have also received word of another board game due for release in June of 2005 being called around the Wizards facility "Dragon Mount". The science fiction wargame is also to be released under the Avalon Hill brand and is designed for 3 to 6 players. We have heard from our source that Charlie Catino is the designer behind the game but are still awaiting confirmation on more details behind this release.
