News about Accused!
 
February 10th, 2009 - Rules Update Available!
 
This update includes a new anti-subjective Trial scoring system and a chance for the Killer to do what they do best.
 Download the Rules Patch along with the Trial score sheet and prove which of the Accused should pay for the crimes of the day.  Or maybe you'll never see the Trial at all....

November 2008 - DragonMeet in London
 
A slightly smaller function from Essen but a warm and friendly environment as always.  Thanks to those who came by and enjoyed a game of Accused!  The last game I oversaw for the evening was great fun just to watch over and Sam, don't worry, when you have all the good weapons and they have nothing then you can pay them all back :)
 
October 2008 - Increased Availibility
 
A few more retailers have either seen or played Accused! and after enjoying it have taken some copies to sell through their fine establishments.  If you are in the area, please stop in for a browse.

October 2008 - Essen Game Fair
 
What an experience!  Having never been to Essen before it was hard to understand what a game convention 150,000 people strong would be like but after surviving four long days slightly out of place in hall 6 I am happy to say that Accused! went down well.
 
Thank you first to Colin Wheeler from Gamers in St. Neots who joined me on the Accused stand without whom the whole trip would not have been possible.  Thank you also to all of those of you who found your way to stand 208 and especially to those of you who purchased a copy of Accused!  I would also like to say thank you to Michael Jannisen for translating the rules of Accused! into German. 
These rules and other items will soon be available for download from this website.
 
I would also like to add that the response to Accused! from players who had taken a copy off to play as they came back over the last two days was heartening.  One player called it "The most fun game I've ever played" while another said "Accused! is almost the perfect game".  As more and more people discover Accused! I sincerely hope that such comments are the normal response to a game played with friends.
 
In closing Essen 2008 was great fun, albeit rather tiring.  The people involved are warm and welcoming and I look forward to working further within such an industry.  Hopefully Accused! will soon be available across a wider number of retailers around Europe and perhaps the US so please pop into your local game store and see what fun you can find there.

 
August 2008 - Initial UK Launch
 
After 3 days and 600 miles touring around England I am happy to announce that the first of the independent UK retailers have chosen to carry Accused! in their stores.  If you are in their area why not stop in and take a look at their great selections of games.
