I almost forgot again. But here I am, sneaking in a mash-up before the clock strikes midnight.

I’m too sleepy to think of anything new to say about Armello this week. It’s a great game. You need to play it.

So here’s Chae dressed as River of the Wolf Clan. She’s an archer, so of course she’s cool. The armor turned out pretty nice all things considered.

That’s all for this week. More Armello next Wednesday!

Hello there, mash-up viewer. Time to give you a mash-up to view. Click on the pic to make it big(ger).

Armello is all about the cards. Well maybe not, but they play a big part. There are still cards I haven’t seen yet because they’re adding new ones all the time. You get an album that you can flip through to see all the cards, which is nice because the art is stunning. I’m ever close to filling my album, but not there yet.

Sargon is of the Rat Clan. He’s a dark magician of some sort, really creepy looking. So Creepyfur (as Deema calls him) is the perfect choice to play him! Well, that and Sargon has a headpiece that covers his eyes.

That’s all for this week. More Armello next Wednesday!

Hi folks! It’s time for another Age of Animus Mash-up! I’m your host, Carja.

The soundtrack to Armello is pretty sweet. It’s one of the few games I don’t mind leaving the music on for as I play even over marathon sessions. It’s very soothing.

Here’s Deema as Elyssia of the Rabbit Clan. Elyssia had something of a tinkerer vibe to her with the tool belt, so it kinda fits with Deema.

That’s all for this week. More Armello next week!

Good time period. Time to make the donuts. But before that, let’s check out a mash-up.

Part of the fun in Armello is the three different decks of cards you can draw from each turn. Your hand size is equal to your wits so I’m partial to characters with high wits scores so I can go through a lot of cards to get the really nifty ones. There are equipment cards, magic spells and tricks (not official names). You can draw cards to match your play style. You’ll want a high spirit score to use the best spells and you’ll need a little cash to use some of the nastier tricks.

Here’s Red Rich as Hargrave. Rich has lost a paw before in the steampunk series so it’s nothing new for him to have to hide one for the sake of a new costume. The face guard was the most difficult piece to adapt to my characters’ dimensions.

That’s all for this week. Discover more Armello next Wednesday!

Wednesday morning, and it’s time to post a mash-up!

You can play Armello online against other human players, but I don’t really enjoy playing that way. It’s much too slow waiting for people I can’t see or interact with (not well anyway). Logically it’s no different from playing a physical board game at a table, but being around a table with others FEELS different and at least I know the people I’m playing with so it doesn’t feel as bad.

Here’s Barnaby as Ghor of the Bear Clan. Ghor has such a simple design and yet it was so tricky to draw because of Barnaby’s dimensions, particularly his head. This is the best I could manage.

That’s all for this week. More from Armello next Wednesday!
