AEG was showing off their newest game, Inner Compass. Most game companies strive to strike a single tone with the games they produce and Inner Compass is just the latest reminder that you might not ever pin down AEG as a one note creator. This modern existential navigation game is a big departure from what someone would normally sit down to a boardgame for. As if to prove the point that AEG will never be caught going in just one direction, Todd Rowland was able to impart some info on their latest foray into the digital space with an announcement that The Captain is Dead is being worked on for a VR title coming soon. In some ways these two games do share a few similarities. People faced with crisis in their lives need to find a way to resolve it. You might not know how things turn out, but it’s easier to get to the next round if you have a few friends! The last year has seen AEG bring forth Mystic Vale ($4.99) as well, a deck building game with multiple expansions as well as a slew of updates to fix and polish their interface. This was probably their biggest app so far. They also have Cat Lady ($1.99) and Smash Up ($3.99) digital versions available on the App Store. I am a pretty huge fan of Smash Up, a game that asks you to make a deck out of two iconic, ridiculous or off the wall factions. Space pirates vs Werewolf wizards" yeah you can do that. Each deck in the game feels flavorful and the app has a ton of the expansions.
