Once every year, the high faerie lords of Summer, Autumn, Winter, and Spring gather around the first Stones at the heart of the mystical realm of Arcadia. Once upon a time, they worked in unison to temper Nature's fury. Now, capricious and vainglorious, they challenge each other to see whose seasonal power will rule for the next twelve months.

Seasons of Arcadia is a deeply strategic, yet very approachable game. Players assume the roles of powerful faerie lords, each attempting to dominate the entire year with their seasonal magic.

The goal is simple: Be the first to place all twelve of your lords on the board to achieve victory. Players take turns placing, moving, and jumping opposing faerie lord pieces on a hex board. Each season can both replace and be replaced by one other season, so defense is as important in offense in determining where you place and move.

Serve up the best (mutated) foods in the fast-paced drafting game Tacopocalypse. Build combo plates that need to be sold before they eat you, and always be ready to scramble for the Wasteland's best condiments. Push your luck to score big, but beware the monstrous Chalupacabra!

In more detail, each turn players select a food card from their hand. All players reveal their cards simultaneously and either begin a combo plate or add to their already existing one. A player's combo plate must consist of all the same or all different food cards. If a card is played that cannot be added, then the combo plate is discarded without scoring it.

When any two players play the same food card, all players attempt to grab a condiment card. Will you get Nuclear Hot Sauce to enhance your plate, make your opponents fill up on Chips & Dip, or unleash the Dreaded Monstrous Chalupacabra? There is always one fewer condiment cards on the table than the number of players. These cards allow for greater scoring, opponent bashing, and multiple scoring options. Players then score any combo plates they wish, then pass their hand to the player on their left. This draft-and-play continues until the hands run out. Play as many rounds as you wish, then the player with the highest score wins!

Hey, Coyote Pack! Join me as I explore six different biomes and learn all about the animals that inhabit them in this fun, fast, and strategic game. Offering a host of interesting animal facts alongside intuitive game play, it’s competitive, but light-hearted and will take you on your own Wild Adventure!

Claim the highest score by secretly laying down animals from different biomes. The only problem is the values of the biomes are constantly changing! Strategically use Coyote’s signature Hat and Backpack, infamous Bites & Stings, and the Animals themselves to alter the game to your own advantage...but watch out for the Snapping Turtle!

On your turn, play as many cards from your hand as you wish with the exception that at least one (preferably Biome) card must be reserved to add to your Wild Adventure. Use Biome cards to change the positions of the Biome tokens on the game mat, Hat & Backpack cards to add bonuses to Biomes of your choice, and Bite & Sting cards to gain an extra edge. Build your Wild adventure with one or two cards. These are laid face down. At the end of your turn refill your hand. Once any player has taken enough turns to create a full Wild Adventure, all other players get a final turn. Biome cards in each player's Wild Adventure are scored against their positions on the mat. Play as many rounds as you like, highest score wins!

"The King and Queen are coming to stay!"

-Robert Crawley, Earl of Grantham

You are cordially invited into the drawing room to play Captured Moments, the delightful parlor-style game based upon the critically acclaimed film Downton Abbey. The rich and interwoven stories culminate in moments which you must collect by using your wits as well as the heroes and villains of Downton before your opponents do.

Featuring multiple ways to acquire points, secret scoring goals, and the Royal Staff waylaying even the best laid plans, Captured Moments will engage your players in a fun, lighthearted journey through the scenes of Downton Abbey!

At any time 5 Moment Cards are revealed. Moments may be captured, and hence, earn victory points, by playing character cards from one's hand matching the required suits OR by matching the listed character exactly with character cards from their hands. Some light sabotage exists in the form of the King's Royal Staff who will waylay the players. Once the entire Royal Staff is revealed, it triggers the final round of the game. Each player has a secret scoring goal and the highest score wins!

Built long ago by an ancient evil, a lair lies at the heart of a dense forest not far from your village. Silent for generations, a noxious reek now wafts from the entrance and unsettling noises from within signal that something terrible is about to awaken. Do you dare venture into the depths and combat what monsters lurk inside?

Wakening Lair is a fully cooperative dungeon delve for 2-6 players who take on the roles of heroic adventurers banded together to defeat the monsters inhabiting a nearby lair. Play heroes from nine different character classes, each with unique abilities to help vanquish foes. Double-sided hero cards provide both male and female versions of each class for a total of 18 heroes from which to choose.

A variety of monsters, nine different monstrous terrors, and randomized boss monster awakening changes the game narrative each time you play. Six different room types can give you an attack bonus if your character type matches the room advantage. Weapons have character preferences and arming the right weapons can increase the power of your attacks. Use magical items for rerolls, healing, or other boosts for yourself or members of your party. Monsters have attack vulnerabilities and immunities, so you need to watch out and square off with the best suited members of your team!

Players take turns exploring rooms in Wakening Lair, defeating monsters, disarming traps, and gathering weapons and magic items. Equip those items to maximize your hero's abilities, all in preparation to defeat the slumbering monstrous terror that is bound to awaken at any moment. When it does, you need all your collective power to keep it from escaping the lair and destroying the land!

Bid, haggle, and trade your way to the top in this raucous trading game of set collection and player negotiation for 2 to 6 players.

Acquire spices, textiles, livestock and other exotic goods by bidding on caravans from foreign markets across the ancient world. Manipulate the market – and each other – using your shrewd bargaining skills to trade with your fellow merchants and collect resource sets to maximize profits.

The game is played in a series of rounds based on the number of players. Each round consists of four phases during which players will take turns bidding on caravans, influence, and customers; collecting goods from caravans; trading and negotiating with each other to collect sets of goods; and selling their goods for maximum profit. Goods are divided into 5 categories, with 5 different items in each category. Players can see which categories of goods their opponents are holding by the symbols on the backs of the cards, but do not know the specific item the cards represent in those categories.

This isn't your typical trading game and player interaction can get raucous and intense as players get creative with their haggling! The player with the highest value of talent coins at the end of the game wins. The marketplace is dynamic and ever-changing. You will need to stay sharp and engaged to amass the most wealth and become the greatest merchant in Hafid’s Grand Bazaar!

Fire, water, earth, wind — these four elements have driven mankind's mythology, philosophy and science for eons. Now, master the power of these primal forces in this abstract game of capture and area control.

In Element, players take turns drawing and placing four element stones to encircle opposing sages. Each element has unique properties that players can use to block an opponent's movement. Feed walls of flame, move raging rivers, raise impenetrable mountain ranges, and even bend wind to your command. Transform one element into another with the rule of replacement or sacrifice element stones to help your sage avoid capture.

Understanding the subtle, diverse, yet powerful nature of the four elements is key to surrounding your opponent and claiming victory!

The question that has bewildered evil masterminds and superheroes alike can at last be answered: Who would triumph in a face-off between pirates, ninjas, robots, or zombies?

In the tactical tile-laying game Pirates, Ninjas, Robots, & Zombies, players attempt to settle the debate once and for all by assembling the highest scoring section of your chosen faction. Each player starts with a base token in hand for their faction along with three other tiles from the 58 included in the game.

On a turn, a player either places one tile from hand into the playing area (with each tile featuring four illustrated quadrants and possibly a special action symbol) or moves his already placed base tile to a new location. The action symbols allow you to rotate or swap tiles already in play.

Once the final tile is drawn, players take one final turn, then tally the score of their most valuable section of orthogonally connected tiles. The base token is worth five points, regular characters worth one point, and bonus items worth three points. Each faction has arch-enemies scattered amongst the tiles — e.g., kraken for pirates — and each arch-enemy touching your faction costs you a point. Whoever has the most valuable faction wins!

In Four Taverns, everyone is competing to have the best tavern in the land. And how do you measure success for a tavern? Customers. No, wait – awesome customers who have done great things that inspire others to come drink with them and your tavern. Thus, you're going to support adventurers on their quests to do great things, which will ideally bring renown upon you and your tavern in the end.

In game terms, each player starts with a hand of adventurers and some coins. Two or three quests are laid out face-up, and each quest shows the strength of the adventurer party – in terms of warrior, wizard, cleric and rogue – required to complete the quest. On a turn, you draw two adventurers cards, then play any number of cards (including zero) – paying their costs at the same time – in order to complete quests and gain the income and renown associated with it. When a quest is completed, all other adventurer cards are discarded.

Why not just hold adventurers in hand until you can send out a massive party all at once? Your tavern is tiny at the start of the game, so you need to keep sending out adventurers in order to make room for more. As you gain renown, though, you'll increase the size of your tavern and have room to hold more adventurers in wait. Champions are special adventurers who fulfill two roles at once, and special action cards bring spice to the game play.

The first player to collect twenty renown wins.

Welcome to Dwarven Miner, a game that sends you underground to collect resources from a mine so that you can then use those resources to craft items for your patrons.

In the game, you'll roll six custom dice in a push-your-luck style to see what can be pulled out of the mine. Craft those resources into all types of gear, from armor to magic wands to mithril swords. Patrons – which range from warriors and rune singers to alchemists and chieftains – are great and powerful dwarves who have chosen you to outfit them on their adventurous, mystical, and often dangerous professions. Each of them will require you to craft different items – and once those items are made, you can then activate those patrons. Each will earn you points and reward you with a special ability that affects the game.

The first player to satisfy enough patrons to reach thirty points wins.
