If you can’t get enough ofWorld of Warcraft, you’ll be excited to know that Blizzard is now accepting pre-orders for theWorld of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King - A Pandemic System Board Game!It’s a collaborative effort between Blizzard and Z-man games to bring the fun of one of the most famous MMORPGs of all time to a table near you.
The name of the game is quite a mouthful; to be fair, though, players are getting a lot in return. Z-man has taken their popularPandemicseries of games and tweaked the rules/settings to apply them to theWorld of Warcraftuniverse. One of those tweaks is an added “quests” game mechanic which doesn’t exist in the vanillaPandemicruleset. The quests are little missions your hero can go on to battle monsters, destroy relics of evil, and generally move the game action along. The extra-large game board itself is littered with iconic locations from the world of Azeroth which players who are familiar with the game will know and love. And if you’re into figs, you will like this game. Carefully crafted and painted figurines of characters like Thrall, Varian Wrynn, and Sylvanas Windrunner are part and parcel with the rest of the game.
