Here at 2game we are big fans of video games. Yeah, I know - shocker!
But we love board games just as much, so when two are combined, magical things happen.

Asmodee is probably the most well-known developer that adapts board games to a PC screen, and while we are grateful for all the greatness they delivered, we could always use some more. Indeed, our craving for games of every shape and form will never be satisfied!

Today we will present our wishlist of board games that we would love for Asmodee to adapt for PC gamers.

King of Tokyo

Whoever decided to mix Kaiju monsters with Yahtzee rules clearly knew what he was doing.

King of Tokyo pits 6 players against each other in a titular city.
By throwing 6 dice, you will attack, heal and gather resources. With those resources, you will get to buy Power Up cards that will make your monster even more powerful than it is.
However, there is strategy involved, as you go in and out of Tokyo city. Inside Tokyo, you attack everyone outside of it, and vice versa, but once inside you can't heal. The only way to get out of it is to get attack and retreat, but the attacker has to replace you in Tokyo.

You win by either destroying opponents or getting 20 points.

While all of this might sound overly complicated, it is actually one of the simplest board games today, and that is what makes it so great - it is accessible to everyone.
We believe that the digital version has the potential to create a large playing community, and we know we wouldn't leave our house for weeks if we get to play it on PC.

Adrenaline

Imagine an FPS as a board game and you will get Adrenaline.

The main hook of Adrenaline is the fact that you become stronger as you take more damage. Once you finally succumb to the wounds, you respawn, but other players won't get as many points as before if they kill you again, making you a less desirable target, which is always a plus.

Instead of adapting this one faithfully, we were thinking of making it a true digital FPS, like Doom. It would make for very fast but extremely satisfying matches.
The scoring method is nothing we've seen in an FPS before, but we think it would work just as well in the digital format.

Honestly, we wouldn't mind a direct adaptation, but Adrenaline offers a unique opportunity when it comes to transitions from table to screen.

My Little Scyth

Extremely popular Scyth has already been adopted by Asmodee, but to be honest it is as hardcore as board games can get. There is, however, an alternative.

My Little Scyth uses simplified rules of the original but retaining just enough from it that it truly feels like a Scyth game.
There are plenty of ways to win in Scyth - gathering resources, making friendships, solving quests or engaging in pie fights.

It can become very frantic, especially with 6 players, and you never know who might be the winner until the very end.

As Asmodee already has experience with Scyth adaptations, we imagine us getting this version is just a matter of time.
They already did it once with Ticket to Ride, so it is not out of the realm of possibilities.

The Grimm Forest

Four little piggies (the relatives of three little piggies) or on a quest to build three different houses made out of straw, wood, and brick. To do that, they will need resources, but on their way to get them, they could encounter wolfs and giants looking to ruin their day. Luckily, friends from all sorts of fairy tales are here to help you.

The Grimm Forest might seem like a simple source gathering game, but it goes much deeper than that.
There is a lot of bluffing involved and all those monsters that you might encounter - it is other piggies that sent them to get you. There is something rotten in the piggie family.

Each player secretly votes where will they go to gather resources, and by playing right Fable and Friends cards at the right moment, you can turn odds into your favor and get more resources than expected. On the other hand, you might accidentally help your opponents with those cards, so choose wisely.

If there is anything bad we could say about The Grimm Forest, it is the quality of components - they are just too damn good! Unfortunately, that is felt on the price point, and we wouldn't complain if it wasn't for the fact that, for the roles they play in the game, the components, specifical miniatures, are overproduced.

However, with digital version components are never the problem, and the amount of fun is just about the same.

BONUS: Smash Up

Yes, we know, Asmodee has already adapted Smash Up. But we want more!

Smash Up got over 12 expansions and each one brought 4 (in some case 5) more factions to mix and match, and all we got in the digital version is the base game and one expansion.

Great game, we want more of it. Simple as that.
