There are two new expansions for Talisman: Origins out right now that open wide both Pandora’s Box and the place steampunk has been hiding since 2004.

Talisman: Origins, if you missed it, was a digital release that brought one of the best Warhammer board games, Talisman, to the digiverse this may. A fantastic adaptation, the game not only provided a whole world to explore, but it also introduced new characters, origins, and treasures that have kept fans happy since May. Two new expansions bring a host of other options to the game, there’s the Clockwork Kingdom, which adds an Artificer, clockwork monsters, and item crafting; and Pandora’s Box, which is a whole new story for Talisman, in which monsters from the nether realm start invading.
