Cryptozoic at GAMA 2012

Cryptozoic had so much to show us at GAMA!  They had information about non-sports cards, deck building games, board games, and trading card games.  I'll try and summarize some of what we saw so that everyone will have a chance to here about what is coming from Cryptozoic.

The Hobbit:

This year Cryptozoic will be releasing 2 different deck building games.  One game will be a bit of a throw back for the Lord of the Rings, and the other will be The Hobbit, Unexpected Journey!  The first one will release in the summer and the second in the winter of 2012.

World of Warcraft:

Well there is so much to say about World of Warcraft (WoW), that it might be easy to do it as a list.  So if you are looking for more information, then try the WoW website to get more details.
