A bit of a shift of tone from the ultra seriousness of previous posts here. As the title suggests, I have something of a weakness to anything involving
giant robots or working with card and although I've never considered the possibility of tabletop gaming in the past, I've stumbled across a little something called '
Phantom Capsule', a cutesy table top strategy game that involves making all the pieces, getting your team of freshly made (minature) giant robots out there and beating up (minature) giant monsters using gameplay mechanisms so simple you can drag your ever humouring other half into it and she might just enjoy herself.
'cuteness' is an appealing factor thrown into the already unusual crossover of interestsHopefully the experience of making and playing will live up to my childishly giddy expectations, so look foward to a review if I can drag some people to a kitchen table covered in a little, paper battlefield.
