Although sequels are more common for computer games, books and movies, now and then a successful board game will spawn a second incarnation. Sometimes the new game is aimed at younger players Dungeon, sometimes its a simplified version designed to introduce the game to new players Simply Cosmic, and sometimes its just a blatant attempt to capitalize on the popularity of a classic Advance to Boardwalk, but usually the sequel uses the same basic game mechanics as the original albeit in a modified or watereddown form. Occasionally, though, a company will issue a sequel that shares nothing with the original except the name and the atmosphere. Such is the case with Titan: The Arena, a companion piece to the classic strategy wargame Titan.
