Don’t miss this strange and challenging co-op game at this week’s convention. As temporal agents, the players must travel through time to collect the powerful artefacts they need to take on Dr Faux’s many clones - who have managed to hide themselves in various time periods - and eventually destroy his wicked machine. One of multiple time-hopping adventures from Pandasaurus, The Loop has players working together to sabotage the evil plans of Dr Faux, a scientist whose schemes have spread across both space and time. Having been released this year - and subsequently had copies stolen in September - The Loop is actually a little difficult for players to get their hands on at the moment, so PAX Unplugged 2021 might provide the perfect opportunity to experience this unique board game. It can never be said that Pandasaurus Games doesn’t produce some interesting looking tabletop titles - and The Loop is certainly no exception. If you’ve enjoyed Hawthorne’s previous releases or if you like narrative-driven board games, then Familiar Tales is definitely one worth checking out at PAX Unplugged 2021.Ĭhase an evil scientist across time and space in this co-op board game Dr Faux's villainous machine must be destroyed by the players in The Loop. Otherwise, the players will be working together to keep their vassal safe and happy, all whilst the forces of a wicked sorcerer pursue their innocent charge.
