Mechs vs. Minions: Bandle City Edition

Most board games promise that decisions have consequences. Mechs vs. Minions™ is the rare one where consequences have consequences, and that's the best part of the night.

You and up to three friends pilot the Yordles of Bandle City. Each round you draft commands, sequence them into a program, and watch your mechs execute exactly what you told them to do, onto a board that has already shifted underneath you. The first round goes roughly to plan. A few rounds in, someone is laughing. Then everyone is. You're not panicking; you're improvising together.

The Bandle City Edition is the same game that has held a Top 100 spot on BoardGameGeek since 2016, rebuilt for the shelf you actually have. It reaches the table in under fifteen minutes and goes away in five. New art direction in the bright, magical Bandle City palette. Acrylic standees, integrated storage, and mission dossiers you open one at a time. A smaller footprint and less plastic than the original, without cutting anything that matters at the table.

Ten missions plus a tutorial, roughly eleven to fifteen hours in total, sixty minutes a session. Drop in or out between missions; you don't need the same four people every week. It teaches in ten minutes, so it works on a Tuesday with your partner or your non-gamer brother as well as it does on a Saturday with your regular group.

No League of Legends knowledge required. Runeterra is the setting; the game stands on its own.

Out of print for five years. Back for its 10th anniversary.

Come for the plan. Stay for the punchline.
