Board Games - Dungeonology is a really nice game with beautiful components. This project is for a few expansions that were recently released that add some new monsters and scholars to the game.

Schooling Future Explorers - Dungeonology

Board Games – Have you ever wondered how a monster manual was created, is this something you need a formal education for? Well Dungeonology by Ludus Magnus Studio seeks to answer that question. You play the role of a teacher at an exclusive academy that needs to complete a thesis on a local monster. Taking a gaggle of students with you questing through a perilous dungeon hoping to glean enough information to right that award winning paper.

It’s a clever concept that is even more clever in its execution. I don’t have a ton of time to play board games like this but after watching the play throughs and painting up the models I really want to add it to my collection. I won’t droan on about the amazing components masterful box organization or beautiful miniatures you can see that by checking of the games official page.

The character models are comically detailed to perfectly match the art on their cards. I really liked the molded bases that give the impression of actually exploring a dungeon. These were really fun to paint. In addition to the amazing characters you get a ton on student pawns. These are really cute in their simple sculpts and by putting some paint on them I think it really added to the look. Because these are just resource cubes they need to look really similar to remain functional. I guess the expansions might add additional colors of “bad” students so I kept the colors simple. For variety I tried to have a variety of skin tones on the students to make them look unique. I think the effect is really nice.
