Trying to find the remake on BGG. Is it just a reprint so they didnt make a new page ?
I'm not sure how the site works, but everything is a lot bigger, and some of the monsters have been renamed to make it less Warhammery (no Fimirs, they're now Abominations, or references to Chaos), but apart from that it's the same game.

Do you need the app to play solo? Or with groups?
I dont like the idea of needing something other than the board and miniatures.
I didn't even realise there was an app.
I haven't actually busted open the new one to actually play yet, but I'm assuming it's the same as the original where you don't need an app to play with other people. One player is essentially the dungeon master, then the other players play the good guys (Barbarian, Elf, Dwarf, Wizard). So 2-5 players.
You probably do need an app to play solo, the game isn't designed for single player.

Without knowing all the changes Id think just playing AD&D would be easier.
Or does it keep 5e but provide a new style of combat ?
Mosaic arrived. 10kg of Civilisation building.

Frosthaven is meant to be 16kg, for when that arrives
Other games with expansions are heavier, but across multiple boxes. I could do a 're-arrange the Games shelves' workout these days.
Shivers has arrived. Pop-up board game, so something different to try. Now will Frostpunk arrive today or later this week 
Kickstarter arrival week continues with Frostpunk. Thankfully wife finishes Uni for year next week so we’ll actually be able to get to our backlog!
Kickstarter arrival week wrapped up with Frostpunk Iceberg box (holds everything) and Wayfarers of the West Tigris. The West Kingdom trilogy was clearly better then the North Seas (IMO), with them having improved as they made more games, so will be interesting to see how the first of their new trilogy plays.
With these arrivals time for an updated set of shelfie shots.

Does anyone have 7th Continent and recommend it?
Its around AUD 260 if buying here but USD 70 plus crazy postage - but that is still way cheaper than local.
Is it "Classic" that is the version to get ?

Christmas / wife birthday (21st dec) haul - Merchants of the Dark Road, Luxor, Spirit Island, A War of Whispers, Let’s Summon Demons and Don’t Talk to Strangers.
I cannot remember the last time I didn't get at least one game (or book) for Christmas, but here we are
I did get enough Steam gift cards for Hogwarts Legacy though! Will wait for reviews first obviously, but that's the frontrunner!
Edit: Oops this is the board game thread. My bad! My 4 year old did get me Fishing for Floaters

Organiser, metal coins and removable stickers to arrive, but some light gaming arrived. 16kg of lightness 
Finally, after initial shipments to Aus. were damaged in transit and took the slow boat undamaged option, They Live arrived.
I think my wife has a drinking problem. First hitting the wine with Dom Pierre, now the spirits with Distilled.

Hows the game compare to Viticulture?
Dom Pierre? Haven't played Viticulture yet (or Distilled as only arrived yesterday). Though wife did say we need to get it to complete the theme and do enjoy Jamey Stegmaier games (plan to get his new Expeditions and currently with board gaming friends we've just started a Charterstone campaign).
