Two new games published by Nuts! Publishing has started to hit North American game stores: Guerre Éclair, a fast-paced, card-driven wargame for two players that recreates the dramatic Fall of France in May 1940, and SPELL, a tactical dueling game where one or two players enters a magical arena as rival mages. The new games are also arriving in retail in other regions, distributed by Ares Games and through Nuts! Publishing.
Guerre Éclair, designed by Yasushi Nakaguro (300: Earth and Water, Port Arthur), is an accessible WWII wargame with strong historical appeal and a short playing time. It simulates the German Blitzkrieg during the Battle of France in 1940; as German forces launch their invasion of the Netherlands, Belgium, and France following the Manstein Plan, the fate of Western Europe hangs in the balance.Guerre Éclair delivers a deeply strategic experience that still manages to appeal to both seasoned wargamers and newcomers.
SPELL is a game for one or two players, set during the legendary Tournament of Äphalest, where the most powerful witches and sorcerers compete for control of the Gem of Vrinolur, an artifact forged to command the forces of darkness. Players enter a magical arena as rival mages, using activated tiles to recreate rune shapes and cast powerful spells. Accessible yet deep, SPELL blends logical pattern-building with direct confrontation, delivering fast, tense matches that reward clever planning and tactical creativity.
