District Noir by Pandasaurus Games Coming Soon

Image
Pandasaurus has announced a new 2 player set collection game District Noir is coming this summer. Preorders will start on May 19th with retail release planned for July 19th. District Noir was originally published in Japanese by Taikikennai Games in 2016 as Throne and Grail. It was then published in 2019 as Chocolate Factory by Nasza Księgarnia in Polish. The current art and theme was published last year in French by Spiral Éditions. When the time is right, gain control! At the head of the city’s largest criminal organizations, men and women fight to control territories and gain support by trying every means possible to grow their influence. Control of the District Noir, a central and highly contested area, remains the major issue that will make all the difference in dominating the city. There are two paths to victory: win over District Noir's various supports, or directly control the city’s three strategic locations. Before players can claim these, they must be played to the center

Pokémon TCG: What Champion's Path Could Have Been

When Champion's Path was announced, The Pokémon Company advertised the set as a Journey through the Galar region where we would challenge Gym Leaders, and would contain cards featuring the Gym Leaders from the Sword and Shield Video Games.

Unfortunately the set let most people down, and in my opinion fell short of meeting their goal. The set felt weak and if it wasn't for the inclusion of Shiny Charizard V from Shiny Star V it would most likely have fallen into obscurity as another lackluster set.

I've discussed during my Live Streams that if I had designed Champion's Path I would have focused it slightly differently. I think the set would have been better as an homage to the old Gym Heroes and VS sets where the cards are based around the Gym Leaders and Rivals Pokémon.

In addition most of the cards could have come from our Vivid Voltage as a lot of nice Trainer Full arts and cards featuring the Gym Leaders and their Pokémon could be used. Alternate art versions like the upcoming signed Trainer Cards. The Full Art Trainer cards could be something similar to what we saw in Cosmic Eclipse.

This would fit better with TCPI's statement of challenging the Gym Leaders to become Champion.
