In the Shadows: Resistance in France, 1943-1944 is a two-player card-driven game capturing the tense and clandestine conflict between the French Resistance and the occupying Nazi regime, along with their collaborators. Set between January 1943 and June 1944, players take on the roles of either the Resistance or the Occupation, vying for control over regions, influence among the population, and ultimately the fate of France.

Gameplay revolves around a dynamic card system using three suits-the Resistance Cross, Victory Cross, and Iron Cross-each representing different resources and regional power bases. Players must skillfully choose when and where to act, whether conducting sabotage, recruiting support, or making arrests and exposing hidden cells. The game reflects the complex logistical challenges and strategic dilemmas both sides faced in real history.

A standout feature is the Resolution deck, which replaces dice with newspaper-themed cards used to determine the outcomes of actions. This design choice streamlines gameplay and emphasizes player decision-making over chance. In the Shadows also includes a solo mode where players lead Resistance operations against an automated Occupation opponent, with unique characters and narratives providing replayable, story-rich experiences.

In the Shadows: Resistance in France, 1943-1944 is available now at Boarding School Games.

Key features:

* Card-driven gameplay focused on strategic decisions and historical themes
* Innovative Resolution deck replaces dice for streamlined play
* Asymmetrical roles with distinct goals and tactics for Resistance and Occupation
* Narrative solo mode with unique Resistance leaders and immersive scenarios
* Highlights the complexities of underground warfare and moral resistance during WWII

A Beta Worth Rooting For
Format: Kindle
In Spare, Violet Fox flips the omegaverse on its head, giving us a Beta heroine determined to make her mark. Joining the Beta Trials to support her sick father, she's thrown into a pack that doesn't want her, especially the possessive Alphas. But here's the twist: their sweet Omega turns out to be her scent match. Cue the angst, forbidden tension, and a slow-burn romance that will make your heart ache in the best way. Violet Fox delivers an emotional, refreshing take on the genre, proving Betas aren't "spares." They're stars.

Beta, Alpha, Omega oh my!
Format: Kindle
Omegas are precious and given to Alphas & their packs... but the Betas want in too. To this end, the Beta government is rolling out its trial of assigning a Beta to each Alpha-Omega pack. But forcing a Beta into a pack where they are not wanted will not end well... Of course, no one expected the Omega to fall for the assigned Beta. Great read and cliffhanger

A familiar story, just with…..less.
Format: Kindle
So, as other reviewers make clear, this is very similar to Pack Darling and The Beta. It’s much closer aligned with The Beta, in plot and maybe more like Pack Darling with characters. That being said, I don’t hate this…..but it wasn’t great either. It’s both books mentioned but just….less. Less angst, less emotion, less feeling. The plot feels very half fleshed out, and the “bad guy” feels underwhelming. I didn’t really feel any real emotions from and of the male leads, except maybe Oliver. The others fell sorta flat for me. And Mika makes herself out to be this big bad ass straight outta training and then we never see it from here again with the one fitting room incident as the exception. SPOILER: The whole, “Oh, I’m actually probably an Omega, but I don’t wanna be but I do actually wanna be but no one can ever know my secret that I do nothing to hide “ thing fell so flat. She never commutes to believing she was secretly an omega, but also mentions her “secret” a lot. It just felt so manufactured. I’m intrigued enough to read part 2 and see how the author closes everything out, but this is not one I’ll recommend or ever come back to.

Good start to a series
Format: Kindle
I delayed reading the series for reasons I don’t remember. But my TBR list is huge so I thought I’d take a shot of this and I was pleasantly surprised. I didn’t think the blurb about it was anything special. But it was a very good book. It took some interesting twists and turns. I am so glad the second book is already out. Because I would not have waited patiently. Very slow burn but good storyline. 🔥🔥/5

A good read
Format: Kindle
Multiple points of view. 3 Alpha men and an Omega male. She is a Beta in training for a new program placing betas in Alpha/Omega packs. Mila is only doing the program for the money to take care of her dad. She wasn't expecting to fall for a pack but when she sees this packs Omega she is done for. There is just something about him. His Alphas are good looking as well. Too bad she is hiding a secret and their government is acting shady. I liked it and can't wait to see where their story goes.
