Fill your week of pirates, scoring the most points in the process. Lots of new cards, and the first of the Days series of games to include Dice - for blasting pirates with a Cannon card or duelling with an opposing pirate. A short take-that strategic game.

Each turn you draw a card or play a card until one player fills their week of pirates - then you add up the current scores to see who has won.

One deck is needed per two people playing.

Troll and Dragon, will you dare steal the Dragon's treasure?

Troll and Dragon is a push your luck game where players will try to collect as many gems as possible.
Our little thiefs can decide to stay in the Troll's cave and collect some diamonds, easy peasy. Some might dare open the door that lead to the Dragon's room.

The Dragon's room is an amazing place, full of golden nuggets. Once you get there, the frenezy starts around the table. You can now throw the precious golden dice, roll them as much as you can to collect as many golden nuggets as possible. But beware, other players are rolling the dragon dice, trying to wake the legendary beast up to make you lose all treasures. Will you stop in time, who is the best and more discret thief around the table?

On your turn, roll the dice as many times as you want, as long as you have something to score. If you roll a key and a door, you can go to the Dragon's room. Once there, roll dice as much as you want but if your opponents roll 2 dragon faces on their dice, you will lose everything you gathered.

Troll and dragon is a frenetic and very fun game for the whole family to play!

Welcome to the Dungeon — first released as Dungeon of Mandom — is a push-your-luck dungeon delve in which 2-4 players take turns essentially daring each other to go into a dungeon with less equipment than they start off with while filling the dungeon with monsters. Players can win the game by winning 2 rounds or get eliminated from the game by losing 2 rounds. Each player has a 2-sided players card that has a white side and a red side. The first win taps the player card and the 1st loss flips the card over to the red side. A 2nd loss will have the player turn the card back into the box.

The game is played in rounds. The player sets up the base character and all the equipment equipped. This represents every player as a fully equipped dungeon delver.

Each round, the start player (the person who challenged the dungeon last or the last player to be in a dungeon) can choose to draw a card from the monster deck or pass their turn.

If they choose to draw, they can do one of two things: (1) keep it and de-equip an equipment or (2) place it face down in the dungeon. Placing it face down in the dungeon creates the dungeon deck and fills the dungeon with monsters that the challenger will have to face later. If they choose to pass their turn, they cannot participate in the rest of the round. Once only one person is left after all the other players have passed their turn, that player then becomes the challenger and must go into the dungeon with only the equipment he has equipped.

The player then flips cards off the dungeon deck and fights the monsters within. Some equipment allow you to null the enemy damage or be able to withstand it by increasing your HP. If the player survives the dungeon with at least 1 HP, they win that round. If not, they lose. The players then reshuffles all the cards to make a new monster deck and re-equips all the equipment to start a new round.

The game ends when someone has won twice or one player is the last man standing.

Welcome to the Dungeon includes four different sets of character cards whereas Dungeon of Mandom has only a single character.

Boggle is a timed word game in which players have 3 minutes to find as many connected words as possible from the face up letters resting in a 16 cube grid. When the timer runs out, players compare their lists of words and remove any words found by multiple players. Points are then awarded for remaining words, depending on how many letters are in the word. (In the original Boggle, all words must contain 3 or more letters to score points.)

An example grid given in the French Canadian rules (of Deluxe Boggle) holds an amazing 459 words!

A number of variants have been produced by Parker Brothers over time, including Big Boggle (which uses a 5×5 grid of letters and forces players to search for longer words).

Boggle is a word dice game.

Roam across the land in search of its secrets, meet its inhabitants and list its wonders in order to gain more fame than your opponents.

Throughout a game of Faraway, you will play a row of 8 cards in front of you, from left to right. These cards represent the regions you will come across while exploring the lands. Characters on these cards will grant you victory points if you later fulfil the conditions they demand. At the end of the game, you walk back the same way, scoring cards in the opposite order you played them. There lies the heart of the gameplay. Throughout the game, the cards you play will serve both to set new objectives, and to meet the ones you played previously.

Each turn, you play a card from a hand of 3. Then you pick a new card from a face-up river. As play is simultaneous in Faraway, you must take into account a clever priority system in all of your choices – being last to pick a card leaves you with fewer options and often less profitable choices for the next turns.

The woods are old-growth, dappled with sunlight. Delicious mushrooms beckon from every grove and hollow. Morels may be the most sought-after in these woods, but there are many tasty and valuable varieties awaiting the savvy collector. Bring a basket if you think it's your lucky day. Forage at night and you will be all alone when you stumble upon a bonanza. If you're hungry, put a pan on the fire and bask in the aroma of chanterelles as you sauté them in butter. Feeling mercantile? Sell porcini to local aficionados for information that will help you find what you seek deep in the forest.

Morels, a strategic card game for two players, uses two decks: a Day Deck (84 cards) that includes ten different types of mushrooms as well as baskets, cider, butter, pans, and moons; and a smaller Night Deck (8 cards) of mushrooms to be foraged by moonlight. Each mushroom card has two values: one for selling and one for cooking. Selling two or more like mushrooms grants foraging sticks that expand your options in the forest (that is, the running tableau of eight face-up cards on the table), enabling offensive or defensive plays that change with every game played. Cooking sets of three or more like mushrooms – sizzling in butter or cider if the set is large enough – earns points toward winning the game. With poisonous mushrooms wielding their wrath and a hand-size limit to manage, card selection is a tricky proposition at every turn.

Following each turn, one card from the forest moves into a decay pile that is available for only a short time. The Day Deck then refills the forest from the back, creating the effect of a walk in the woods in which some strategic morsels are collected, some are passed by, and others lay ahead.

Embrace the role of an Apothebaker, accumulating reputation for each adventurer you heal and every bake you undertake. The player who gains the highest reputation by day’s end will claim victory!

See what mysteries await you in this fast-paced, quick-thinking escape room game! Invite your guests, set your scene and get ready to host a night of fun and intrigue. The ultimate quest? To uncover the dark, hidden secret of The Grand Hotel…

Owned by the wealthy but mysterious Blossom family, this once magnificent hotel was in danger of being closed for good until the sudden return of the Blossom son, Kurt and his beautiful wife, Lauren. They want to restore the hotel to its former glory but nothing is quite what it seems!

When their glamorous, rich and influential guests arrive for the grand re-opening, they’re ready for a night to remember – little do they suspect it will be for all the wrong reasons!

Invite your guests, set your scene and get ready to host a night of fun and intrigue. Each guest can come dressed as one of the eight characters, ready to play their role. During the evening, they must travel through the hotel solving the series of mysterious puzzles that release them from each room. The ultimate quest? To uncover the dark, hidden secret of The Grand Hotel.

The village elders have predicted a severe winter, and so the villagers have agreed to work together to ensure that the village has all of the necessities. In a spirit of healthy competition, the villagers have decided to compete to see who can be the most helpful. However, Rabbit, the constant trickster, has decided that he does not want to work. Instead, he has decided to confuse everyone else so that he can take all of the resources for himself.

Winter Rabbit is set in the world of traditional Cherokee animal stories, where each player takes on the role of one of the animal characters. In this semi-cooperative game, players cooperate to provide everything the village needs for winter while also competing to see who can contribute the most.

Winter Rabbit features a unique hidden worker placement system. Villagers are drawn randomly from a bag. The active player knows whose villager they have drawn and can choose where to place it, though this information is hidden from other players. Resources are only generated when enough villagers are present. When resources are produced, every player gets one, but those with villagers present gain additional resources.

Rabbit villagers do not produce resources. When one of these appears in a resource location, resources are instead diverted to the Rabbit Burrow. In later turns, players can steal these resources back.

Players can spend resources to build their personal engine through village cards. They can also spend resources on stories that affect the game for all players, or complete tasks that score points, progress the game, and provide a benefit to another player.

Players are encouraged to manage resources carefully. Storage is limited, and overproducing can result in difficulty producing resources in future turns.

The game ends after a variable number of rounds, depending on player count. If players have collectively produced enough supplies for the village to survive Winter, then the player with the highest score wins. If Winter arrives before the necessary supplies are produced, then players share a collective loss.

Winter Rabbit attempts to create a counterpoint to common colonial game themes by focusing on indigenous values and concepts. Winter Rabbit won second prize in the 2021 Zenobia Awards.
