  • Friday

    For years, the man Friday has lived alone on his island. But when Robinson was washed up on the beach, Friday’s peace was disturbed by this clumsy foreigner. He set out to train him to be able to get off the island again. In training Robinson, Friday was still alone. As are you in this game.

  • Targi

    The Sahara desert. Wide, open spaces. You can travel for days without meeting another soul. So why is it that, when playing Targi, there are always people standing where I want to go? Always. Every single turn. But they are complaining about the same thing, so it’s perfectly balanced.

  • Undercover

    The life of a secret agent is tough. We know from James Bond’s biographical movies about the large number of people who to kill you while megalomaniac villains try to either kill everyone, enslave everyone or just take everyone’s money. But those movies gloss over the hardest part of the job: keeping track of who is who, and who they are working for. You think it’s easy, working with a bunch of double agents who all look the same because they wear stupid hats and trench coats and only meet in dark corners, anyway? Well, think again after you accidentally pass that briefcase to the wrong guy. He looked just like the right guy, but when he said “Thank you” you realized he was talking with the wrong stereotypical villain accent. But no more! With Undercover Doris and Daniel Danzer will help you understand just how hard the secret agent life is on your memory.

  • Alchemists

    Combining boardgames with mobile apps into a game that people actually want to play is the current Philosophers’ Stone and Holy Grail rolled into one for game designers and publishers. The Philosophers’ Grail, maybe. Previous attempts have had lukewarm success at best. But Alchemists is the first in a new wave of games with companion app, and it might just have found the magic formula how do it right.

  • The Resistance

    We find ourselves in a not-so-far future. The whole world is controlled by a totalitarian government. Only a small resistance group is desperately trying to free the people, but their time is running out: they have already been infiltrated.

  • Raid & Trade

    World War 3 has come and gone, and to everyone’s surprise we’re not extinct. But the planet is not a great place to live any more, except for those select few that secured a space in the Golden City, the last beacon of civilization in the world. All the wastelanders want to live there, and the players in Raid & Trade actually have the chance to achieve that dream, if they find the right mix between cooperation and ruthlessness.

  • Confetti

    Simple doesn’t always mean boring, Some games have very, very simple rules and are still fun to play. So here we have a game that is based on the concept of confetti. Small, colourful paper discs for tossing in celebration purposes. Does it come under the “simple, but not boring” heading?

  • 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.
