Description
It's our time, down here.
Embark on a perilous adventure full of dangerous booby traps and treacherous treasure-filled caverns! In The Goonies: Never Say Die, one player is the Goondocks Master, controlling fearsome foes from the outlaw family, the Fratellis, to the legendary pirate, One-Eyed Willie. The other players take on the role of the Goonies — Mikey, Mouth, Chunk, Data, and Sloth — and attempt to overcome cryptic puzzles and deadly challenges with teamwork, strategy, and Data's clever contraptions! Will the Goonies discover the legendary riches that will save their homes, or will they follow the fate of Chester Copperpot...and never see the light of day?
The game features nine adventures so that players can immerse themselves in the 1980s movie as well as brand new stories, and it includes eight sculpted miniatures of Mikey, Mouth, Chunk, Data, Sloth, the Giant Octopus, the Fratellis, and even One-Eyed Willie himself.

Quotes (from this video)
- Turns out I'm not inflammable. I mean infallible.
- We now know Funko is planning to bring us 40 games and I said that I thought there would be family games with big IPs attached I'm imagining a roster of family weight games with a host of intellectual properties attached to them.
- The Goonies: Never Say Die being designed by Prospero Hall the design team behind Villainous, FunkoVerse, Pan Am, Top Gun, Wonder Woman, talk about Fast and Furious which they also designed.
- Maximum Apocalypse Wasted Worlds is the anticipated continuation of the cooperative roguelike game series.
- It's that most wonderful time of the year where we all gather around our festive monitors and rekindle our love for board games by saying things like what on earth is that game.
- Fantasy Realms is really a four year old game I suppose it's new release in German makes it eligible for a nomination but it does strike me as an odd choice as it's an older game but it's fun just maybe kind of weird to see.
- It's not controversial but it's interesting and I like talking about board games give me a break.
- The Goonies: Never Say Die is a one versus all asymmetrical game full of skill checks and minis and traps and treasure and puzzles and challenges as you try as a group to find hidden riches before the Goondox master which definitely has the acronym GM can undo your plans by sending the outlaw Fratelli family or even One-Eyed Willie himself after you.
- The Adventures of Robin Hood is a storybook driven game as you live out ever evolving daring deeds.
- MicroMacro which started its promotion last year as a series of cryptic social media posts and postcards as you solve 16 cases that span an intricate massive map.

- Dominion is getting an app now you might say to yourself Dominion already has an app is two of them and a website you can play it on but this is different and new Temple Gates Games are fitting the new app with a whole bunch of artificial intelligence which is of course deliciously ominous because it's smart enough to be able to play even win with cards that have yet to be designed essentially the AI doesn't learn how the cards work it instead learns how each element of each card works meaning that those elements when they're used on new cards you'll already know how to use them against you as you play against it.
- Looks like an Elder Scrolls board game is on the horizon.
- There Will Be Ghosts a new game by Isaac Vega of Dead of Winter fame.
- It's slated as actually being a scary board game which is a concept I couldn't be more excited about.
- The new game is being specifically designed to be a horror game that will legitimately try to frighten its players.
- We'll be there the whole darn team to play games hold events and generally support the convention in any way we can so it's an exciting venture and we really think you'll enjoy the con.

Quotes (from this video)
- The Morrigan Game Factory though, what a great escape room game. It might it's it's definitely in my top escape room games.
- Noobs in Space is one of my favorite little games that's so unique and interesting. You have a deck of cards, you deal them out to everybody. Everybody has cards in their hand, and then you just solve those cards by saying things out loud, working together to play cards, and hopefully you solve it. It communication is the key. You can say anything you want, uh but you just can't show cards. And it's hilarious and fun. Very, very enjoyable.
- If you really like what we're doing here at the Dice Tower, then there are different ways to support Dice Tower.
- Tell your friends about the Dice Tower.
