  • Québec

    Québec is not only a city in Canada any more, it is now also a game about that city. But where games with city names are often variants of other games with some new pictures, Québec introduces new mechanics and really invents a new game, not just renames it.

  • Ad Astra

    Ad Astra is not quite a board game, it skips the concept of a game board and makes the table top the playing area. There is some mechanics from Settlers of Catan there, some from Puerto Rico and a bit from Robo Rally, all combined to a delicious mix

  • Forbidden Island

    Thousands of years ago, the Archaean empire was at the height of its power. They created four artefacts that could control the very elements. But power, as everyone learns sooner or later, is no guarantee for survival. And so it is, a long time later, a small group of modern-day adventurers that set out to retrieve the legendary treasures from the Forbidden Island.

  • Battle for Supremacy

    Superheroes and Villains are loose in the not-so-peacefull city of Centropolia. We all know how these two types never get along, and so it doesn’t take long before the public property damage reaches the million dollar border. Actually, we don’t know that, all we care about im Battle for Supremacy is punching the other guy on the nose.

  • Oltre Mare

    Not every that has merchants as a theme need to be a complex trading game. On the contrary, Oltre Mare is a light game where you don’t worry about the price development of olive oil but instead need to think about the best use of your cards.

  • 2019: The Arctic

    In 2019, the Arctic is one of the few remaining areas on Earth with natural resources. Naturally, everyone with a claim on those, however slight it may be, want them. And so the fight for the Arctic begins. But only at first glance is it a conflict between nations – cooperations are the driving power.

  • Evolution: The Origin of Species

    Evolution is one of the more vicious card games out there – eating your opponents animals is a great survival strategy. But the game’s author is a biologist by trade, so at least it is scientifically acurate viciousness.

  • Ghost Stories

    Do you like the Chinese Ghost Story movies? How about cooperative games? Now roll this to things into one, how does that sound? Ghost Stories is exactly that: you defend a small village from the forces of Wu-Feng who is about to rise from the dead.
