No one can contest that games like “H1Z1” and “PUBG” revived the battle royal genre…that is, a “Hunger Games”-esque battle arena system where the map shrinks the longer it plays out.  Heck, “Fortnite” was originally PVE until it jumped on the bandwagon with a separate free-to-play battle royale mode.  I was surprised (but kinda not based on trend) to see a board game version pop up on Kickstarter and I have a feeling that it won’t be the last one.  While I haven’t been able to play “Last One Standing” for obvious reasons, I can’t wait to see what the final product looks like after it’s all said and done.  Due to how busy I can get, I’m also attracted by the “10 minutes per player” average playtime.
