  • Linja

    A very short game, with rules that can be explained in about two minutes, materials you can carry in your coat pocket that still manages to look good and offers some depth? It does exist, and it’s called Linja.

  • The Great Zimbabwe

    It’s not easy becoming king. Especially not when all the craftsmen work for other tribes, without them your monuments don’t grow and even your gods make it harder for you to win. You’ll have to do a lot of thinking to rule over The Great Zimbabwe.

  • Haggis

    Haggis the card game has about as much to do with the Scottish national dish as Tichu the Chinese card game has with China. Haggis the card game does have a whole lot to do with Tichu the card game, but with enough differences to make it an interesting game although you might know Tichu already.

  • Loch Ness

    Fog still lies over the Loch, the early morning was silent a minute ago. Now, the silence is disturbed by a stampede of photographers, running around the lake, setting up their cameras. Because, once more, Nessie has been spotted, and all the papers want the best photos.

  • The Agents

    When a big secret agency shuts down, many shady people suddenly find themselves unemployed. The Agency was the biggest secret agency there was, and dealing with their leftover agents to make a profit is your job in The Agents.

  • Shadows over Camelot

    What is your name? – Sir Meepalot.
    What is your quest? – The search for the Holy Grail.
    What is the poker hand you need to beat me? – I don’t know tha AAARRRGGH!
    And it is through the magic of the internet that you have been reading this text in Monty Python voices inside your head. Oh, you wanted to know about Shadows over Camelot?

  • 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.

  • Broom Service

    Potion delivery is big business. A bit like pizza delivery, only with more magic, and on broomsticks. That is your business in Broom Service, but the competition is tough and you won’t have time to let your brooms cool down before the day is over. So keep a close eye on what your opponents are doing and use your witches and druids to deliver the most potions before the game is over.

  • Cargotrain

    Trains, pick-up-and-deliver mechanic, set collection. All that doesn’t sound new, the mechanics have been used and even combined before, and there are more than a few train games out there. But Cargotrain takes those simple ingredients and mixes them up into something tasty and fun.

  • Thunderstone Advance: Numenera

    Fantasy, in board games, often means “inspired by Dungeons & Dragons”. Until now, that was true for Thunderstone as well. But the Numenera RPG, and the Thunderstone box based on it, offers a very, very different brand of fantasy. You’d be happy to find something as simple as a dragon here.

  • Wizard

    I doesn’t actually take a lot of rules to create a great game. A very small set of simple rules plus one minimal twist is all it takes. A minimal twist like requiring you to predict the future. Welcome to Wizard.

  • Ca$h’n’Gun$

    We all have played Cops and Robbers as kids. Pretty much all of us forgot the simple joy of pointing a toy gun at our friends and yelling "Bang! Bang! You’re dead!" Cash’n’Guns skips the cops for most of the game. but the robbers and toy guns are there.

  • Welcome to the Dungeon

    Some games are huge and take a long time to play. Others are smaller and quicker. And then there are some games that advertise themselves as mini games: small box, small rules, short play time – all the fun. Iello have their own product line of such games, and Welcome to the Dungeon is one of them. A quick and simple bluffing game that has little in common with dungeon crawling style games, you will try to get the hero killed more often than you help him succeed.

  • Blokus

    Yet another easy, quick and very clever game: your only goal in Blokus is to place all your tiles on the board, and the only restriction is that they must touch your other tiles, but only by a corner. Oh, and three other people are trying to do the same and get in your way.

  • Machine Mind

    In a near and sinister future, machine minds are taking control. Or is it the present already? Plain, old humans are mere pawns in their battle for world domination. Good for you that you aren’t one of them, isn’t it? You’re a Machine Mind, you’re in control. Or at least, you will be soon if you play your cards right.
