Published on December 24, 2012 by in News

This contest is for a set of 100 VictoryChips.  You can select the denominations, or we’ll pick a standard set for you. To enter the contest, you need to simply ‘like’ the two pages listed below on Facebook.  To make your life better, I’ve included the links.  So you can probably enter and be back here in like 2 minutes or less. Like our new VictoryChips page Like the GameKnight Products page Only by ‘liking’ both of these pages will allow your entrance into this contest. It’s sorta like one of the missile silos that requires two keys to launch.    If you are one of those fantastic people who already ‘Liked’ the GameKnight page, you only need to LIKE the VictoryChips page and you are entered. The contest will end and the winner will be selected on February 2nd, 2013. Free shipping to the winner is included.  Yes, even for you international folks. The winner will be contacted via the Facebook message.   We’ll give the winner 2 weeks to reply.   If we don’t hear from you we’ll assume you don’t like winning contests and another winner will be selected and you will be quite sad. GameKnight Products can cancel\change the terms of the contest at any time for any reason.  We don’t plan to, but all the other contests like to say this, so we will too. Yes, you need to be a Facebook user to enter.  That’s how this contest works.

GameChip news

For those of you who own, or are considering buying GameChips, I wanted to share some exciting news. I’m in the process of making a few design revisions to the GameChips product. Here are some specifics about the changes being made: The 5/10/20 chips will have a redesigned rolling edge. While many customers like the current design, some customers mentioned that the gradient design on the edge makes them sad. The revised design will feature a more coin-like appearance. The edge will now have a pattern that will look like the ridges on the edge of a quarter. It will be uniform with no gradient. The face design will be unchanged. A new set of designs for the 25/50/100 chips will be made available. The new design is intended to look like paper currency. The colors will remain similar (green/blue/black respectively). Although I do like the gem design, I felt that their were too many gem designs in the set. Now the set will be a more balanced mix of designs. I realize that by making some changes you might have a few questions. Here are some  answers to the questions I’m anticipating that you might have. When will images of the new designs be made available?  Images from the prototypes are attached to this post. When will the new chip designs be available for purchase at the GameKnightStore.com? Likely to be February-March timeframe. These chips will also be available to some reward levels in the new Kickstarter project. Can I

Updated Agricola Strategy Guide

Winner of the coveted Spiel des Jahres award for “Best Complex Game in 2008,” Agricola is one game that definitely needs a strategy guide. In Agricola (Latin for “farmer”), you’re a farmer in a wooden shack with your spouse and little else. On a turn, you get to take only two actions, one for you and one for the spouse, from all the possibilities you’ll find on a farm: collecting clay, wood or stone; building fences; and so on. You might think about having kids in order to get more work accomplished, but first you need to expand your house. And what are you going to feed all the little rugrats? Check out GameKnight’s new, updated Agricola strategy guide! Click to view the online version, or download our new PDF version.

You’ve probably heard the familiar proverb, “Good fences make good neighbors.” Unfortunately, in Small World there are no fences. Races are at each other’s throats, using their special powers to gain the most real estate possible. As the game box’s catchphrase states, “It’s a world of slaughter, after all!” Don’t be a victim of the massacre and read our new Small World strategy guide.
