Just Announced: MtG Pack Wars this Saturday, July 2!

Join GeekLife as we kick off the 4th of July holiday weekend, Magic: the Gathering style: with Pack Wars.

Pack Wars, or Mini Masters, is a casual game where each player only needs a single booster pack of Magic cards. Without looking at the contents, each player opens his or her pack and adds in three of each basic land (Plains, Island, Swamp, Mountain, and Forest). They then shuffle up and play a game of Magic just like normal.

Play anytime on Saturday. It’s quick and fun and you can play with any set we have available.

Win versus three opponents to win a pack of Eternal Masters (limit one).

Pandemic Survival is an “extreme” version of Pandemic where teams face each other in an epic battle to save the world. Their goal: to be the first team to find all four cures, or to be the last team still alive at the end of the game.

In this tournament-style version of the game – that cannot be found anywhere else – all teams will face the same problems: their player cards will all be placed in the same order before the game; the infected cities are the same for everyone; the Epidemics strike at the same time for all teams; every team has the same role cards. The only difference is the decisions they will make! Their strategic choices will lead each team in different directions, and one strategy will pay off in the end and lead to victory. The game master will call out the Infection cards, while other scour the tables to see if any of the team have succumbed to the Pandemic.
