Description
Destinies is a competitive, story-driven, game of adventure and exploration, mixing an app and a board game.
Destinies: Witchwood is a new expansion for Destinies that adds new scenarios for players to explore. The world is filled with folklore-inspired characters, monsters, and adventures.
In each scenario, players will compete to fulfil either of their character's two possible Destinies. Players will develop their character's skills, gather items, complete quests, and uncover thousands of words of rich narrative.
In Witchwood, decisions that players make in a scenario can drastically change the world the characters find themselves in and can impact later scenarios.

Quotes (from this video)
- all of the animals will score you points in different ways and there are a number of cards in it that you know keep the game replayable
- so if you want new asymmetric
- releasing circadian chaos order harbingers expansion this is a mini expansion to the game circadians chaos order which was a heavyweight game where you could play as one of six asymmetric factions battling for control of ancient relics on a distant planet
- this provides more variability and strategies to discover from within each faction so it doesn't add a new faction but it adds a couple of new things for the faction that makes it um you know a little bit more replayable
- Renegade game studios and Garfield games are releasing an expansion to circadian first light this is the specialist expansion
- circadian first light was a medium heavyweight game um that um was all about negotiation they it had open negotiations and you were building coalitions with new species in space
- Steam Forge games is releasing an expansion to their newly released Resident Evil board game this is called Bleak Outpost
- in this expansion Bleak Outpost there are six new scenarios in the game so it adds about approximately eight hours of extra gameplay to your Resident Evil campaign
- if you like horror themed games then Resident Evil is definitely a horror themed game
- so yeah lot lots more content to explore for circadian first light
- so that's it that's all the expansions I have hitting retail in October 20123
- there's a lot of expansions for well-known and well-loved games this month so it is an it's an exciting month in the world of expansions that's for sure
