New Releases – August 25, 2020

Hey PI-Fans! We just received 3 New Releases yesterday evening: 'Chope!', 'Mooncake Master' and 'Remember Our Trip'  All designed by local Singaporean, Daryl Chow! Support local! Chope!   In Singapore, everyone knows the 'Laws of Chope', basically 'hawker table reservation etiquette.' If you see a packet of tissue placed on a hawker table seat, it means its reserved. As every Singaporean knows, reserving hawker table seats is a game of 'faster choper first': you don't slap that tissue packet down, you don't get that hawker seat. In 'Chope!', players are hungry folks trying to get their favourite hawker delights and find a table. On your turn, flip open as many cards from the centre hawker deck to see how much food cards you can get. There's Chicken Rice, Nasi Briyani, Nasi Lemak, Laksa to name a few. If you encounter 2 of the same food cards, you bust! You'll be [...]
