LATEST NEWS from DIGITAL EEL
A priceless artifact of antiquity lies hidden, deep within a confounding tangle of goblin-infested warrens. A lone but fearless dwarf must seize it. A numberless horde of monsters must protect it. Who will prevail? Choose sides, play the game and decide!
Digital Eel presents GOBLIN SLAYER
A free boardgame download!
GOBLIN SLAYER is a quick, easy to play boardgame of heroic adventure and underground combat for two players. One player controls the evil denizens of the "Cave of Woe", an innumerable tribe of goblins (and an optional "guest star") who jealously guard a fabulous object. The other player controls Stormbeard the dwarf, armed with his legendary battleaxe, who must explore the cavern complex, "acquire" the ancient artifact and escape alive. Not so easy!
GOBLIN SLAYER features a special geomorphic game board designed to create a "perfect" but different cave system each time the game is played. The map tiles are perfect for use with your favorite paper roleplaying game as well!
The GOBLIN SLAYER zip file includes the game manual, a color "splash" image and nine large monochrome images of the game board tiles for printing. All you need to supply are common components found in other boardgames, like ordinary dice, coins or poker chips, and pawns or figurines.
GOBLIN SLAYER is freely distributable according to the terms stated in the manual. Feel free to share the game so everyone can play.
To get it, visit the GOBLIN SLAYER web page or grab the game right here!

 Nifty nooz: If you'd like to read an overview of the independent game development movement, check out L. B. Jeffries' article, Rejecting the Conventional Industry: The Independent Gaming Scene, at PopMatters. According to Jeffries "What makes the games these people produce so impressive is not just the dedication of the people making them, but the staggering creativity that makes so many of them stand out." We agree, except for the staggering part. I mean, you could bump into something. Also, many thanks (three or four, actually; there are three or four of us depending on how you're counting) to L. B. for mentioning Weird Worlds and our latest game, Soup du Jour! The man's got great taste in games, I tell ya.
Ripcord out.
