the Downfall of Pompeii

Games from the Cellar

Join the panel this week as they race to the city gates to talk about the Downfall of Pompeii!

The Downfall of Pompeii, designed by Klaus-Jürgen Wrede, was first published by Amigo and Mayfair in 2004.

Episode Summary: Vesuvius seethes in the background of this light, relaxing tile placement game. Until it become a light, not-so-relaxing race to get your family members out of town before disaster strikes. This week, the panel talks about the Downfall of Pompeii, a two part city-building then city-destroying-run-for-the-gates game from Klaus-Jürgen Wrede, of Carcassonne fame. We bring up old grudges, build new ones, and even discuss the game for a few minutes.
