Listen all of you, bellyslitherers! Gather around… and prove your mettle!

There’s no peace on Gastropodia Islands. Especially not when all kinds of snails grab their weapons and face each other in deadly combat. Each squad is ready to show the other mollusks who’s the boss. They’ll do anything to stand victorious. Bazookas, Molotov cocktails, mines, barrels full of toxic waste, axes and swords… These are their tools of the trade used with blinding speed unusual for rather slow creatures.
And where will you be? Well, that’s pretty clear – right there, at the snail vanguard, leading your squad to victory!

Snails is a dynamic game for 2-4 players ready to command squads of pumped up mollusks in pitched battle. Each squad is led by a unique Hero who grants their subordinates special abilities and enhances their chances to win by eliminating opponents with an assortment of funny weapons.

The combat takes place on a dozen islands, which get destroyed as the game progresses. Your snail may end up in water in not time and see for themselves that marine pollution is real! Additionally, by excavating more and more island levels you may encounter all kinds of surprises – from new gear, to mean crabs to lethal barrels.

Simple and intuitive rules of Snails are based on action planning. Just secretly choose 5 Action Cards and 2 snails from your squad to perform them, then watch the mayhem that you cause! Of course assuming that your rivals don’t outsmart you and eliminate your troops before they get to act… Add to this Heroes’ special abilities, tens of various Action Cards representing weapons or special attacks and custom dice and you will end up with a great gaming experience.

Fast, but strategic and competitive gameplay, immersive and funny artwork by “Djib” Reynaud – a world-famous French illustrator, high replayability thanks to various game modes and battle scenarios… All this guarantees that you and your friends will have great fun whenever you play Snails.

UNO Zero is a table top card game, where the goal is to score as low as possible (ideally zero points hence the name). Each player at the beginning has a set of six cards faced down in front of them. The grid consists of three columns and two rows. At the beginning each player can turn and reveal two of their cards. After that all players attempt to reveal all their face-down cards by drawing one card each turn from the discard or draw pile and exchanging them with one of their cards. Two cards of the same colour or the same number in one column are discarded. That way players can get rid of their points.

What's special about UNO zero is that the typical UNO action cards are part of this game. The reverse card changes the direction of the game. The draw two or draw 4 card makes players add more columns to their grid. And the skip card has the next player skip their turn.

That makes this game vey dynamic, surprising and fun.
Each round is different and you can get very lucky and have only two cards left at the very end, or unlucky and you still have 12 cards in front of you while another player finishes the game.

Once there is only one face-down card left in your grid you have to say UNO or you'll be punished to draw two more cards.
It's easy to learn and start, since the rules are quickly explained and the famous UNO action cards almost anybody already knows.

The evil Lord Eradikus has all but conquered the galaxy and is now on a victory lap across the sector in his flagship, Eradikus Prime. He may rule with an iron grip, but his most prized artifacts are about to slip through his cyborg claws. You and your fellow thieves have challenged each other to sneak aboard his ship, hack your way into its command module, and steal from him.

Along the way, you'll recruit allies and snatch up extra loot. But one false step and — Clank! Careless noise draws the attention of Lord Eradikus. Hacking into his command module and stealing his artifacts increases his rage. You'd better hope your friends are louder than you are if you want to make it to an escape pod and get out alive...

Clank! In! Space! is built on the same game system as Clank!: A Deck-Building Adventure, with players building a personal deck of cards throughout the course of the game, with the cards allowing them to move through the spaceship, attack things, acquire new cards, and — oh yeah — make noise to attract Lord Eradikus and potentially seal their own doom.

Skull King is a trick-taking game similar to Oh Hell!, Wizard, Euchre and Spades, with players needing to state how many tricks they think they'll win each round. A unique element of this game is that bidding takes place simultaneously, leading to rounds that are sometimes over, or under-bid. As players must win the exact number of tricks that they bid to earn points, winning too many tricks is just as bad as winning too few and this leads to intense competition where losing a trick can be as exciting as winning one.

Skull King uses a 66-card deck that consists of five Escape cards, four suits numbered 1-13, five Pirate cards, 1 Tigress card, and 1 Skull King card. The game lasts ten rounds, and in each round, each player is dealt as many cards as the number of the round. All players simultaneously bid on the number of tricks they think they'll take by holding out a fist and on the count of three revealing a certain number of fingers (or possibly a closed fist for a bid of zero tricks).

Standard rules apply for the playing of cards, with one player leading off a card and other players following suit, if possible, and playing something else if not; however, a player may always choose to play one of the special, unnumbered cards — and the power of those cards might let you win a trick that otherwise would have gotten away. In more detail, the black Jolly Roger suit trumps the other three suits, a Mermaid trumps all numbered cards, a Pirate trumps the Mermaid, and the Skull King trumps everything — except if he appears in the same trick with a Mermaid, in which case she captures him and wins instead. An Escape card loses to any other card, and the Tigress card serves as either a pirate or escape card as desired by the player. Whoever wins a trick leads in the next trick.

If a player makes their bid exactly, they score 20 points per trick; if they collect more or fewer tricks, they lose 10 points per trick they are off. If a player makes a bid of zero tricks, they win points equal to ten times the current round number — but if they take even a single trick, they lose this many points instead. If a player catches pirates with the Skull King, or the King with a mermaid, they score bonus points. Whoever has the most points after ten rounds wins.

You are one of the two most powerful traders in the city of Jaipur, the capital of Rajasthan, but that's not enough for you because only the merchant with two "seals of excellence" will have the privilege of being invited to the Maharaja's court. You are therefore going to have to do better than your direct competitor by buying, exchanging, and selling at better prices, all while keeping an eye on both your camel herds.

Jaipur is a fast-paced card game, a blend of tactics, risk and luck. On your turn, you can either take or sell cards. If you take cards, you have to choose between taking all the camels, taking one card from the market, or swapping 2-5 cards between the market and your cards.

If you sell cards, you get to sell only one type of good, and you receive as many chips for that good as the number of cards you sold. The chips' values decrease as the game progresses, so you'd better hurry! On the other hand, you receive increasingly high rewards for selling three, four, or five cards of the same good at a time, so you'd better wait!

You can't sell camels, but they're paramount for trading and they're also worth a little something at the end of the round, enough sometimes to secure the win, so you have to use them smartly.

A crowd of umbrellas throngs the streets of New York, and seen from the sky, the colors dance...

In Umbrella, each player orchestrates a "dance" of umbrellas in a street crossing. You start with a 4x4 square of umbrellas, with four each of four colors. One umbrella of each color starts in a "waiting zone" to your left and right (with these being shared with the players sitting in those directions), a "waiting zone" in the center of play (shared by all players), and a "waiting zone" below your personal game board (shared by no one else). Start with two stacks of two figure tiles on your game board. Each figure tile shows you an arrangement of umbrellas in a single color that you want to create on your board.

On a turn, take an umbrella from an adjacent waiting zone, then slide it onto your game board from the direction of that area, pushing out an umbrella into the waiting zone on the opposite side. If you've created a unicolor umbrella arrangement that matches a visible figure tile on your board, place a scoring token on an empty space of the matching color on your scoreboard, then pass the figure tile to the player on your left; they place this tile on their board in the first empty figure space, rotating the tile to match the depicted orientation.

Continue taking turns in clockwise order until a player has no figure tiles in front of them, a player has ten scoring tokens on their scoreboard, or a player empties the pool of scoring tokens by taking the final one. Each other player takes one turn, then everyone scores their points: 2 points per scoring token, a variable number of points for groups of tokens (which differs per scoreboard), and points based on the number of umbrellas in their personal waiting zone.

Moon Base is a two-player abstract game set on the moon, proceeding over six rounds. The player replenishes the 'Ring Module' at each round, and builds the moon base while placing and stacking on the crater. The player uses their three-color ring well to advance their color. At the end of each round, it will be a point to construct a 'residential zone' and 'resource facility', but while aiming to move the 'mobile research building' effectively, players will also aim for bonus points that can be earned at the end of the sixth round . Finally, the player with many total points wins.

Game Abstract
Moon Base is a 2 player abstract game about Moon Development. There Are 6 Rounds. Each round, players choose a set number of ring modules to place on the craters, or place on top of each other to develop the Moon Base. Using the three different colors of the rings, players try to build in a way that their colors will gain the upper hand. At the end of each round whoever has the highest total points wins the game with the highest points by gaining bonus points at the end.

5 Features of Moon Base

＜Feature 1＞ Unique Game Board

The impressive craters on the lunar board are the squares of this game. Craters overlap, so if you put a ring in one crater, the other one overlapping it also gets eliminated, and vice versa if you put a ring on the other. Depending on which crater you are placing a ring on, the situation on the board changes and affects your game plan. First come, first served, so if you really care about placing your ring on a specific crater, make sure you do it earlier than your opponent!

＜Feature 2＞ A 3D Stacking Game

The ring modules that make up Moon Base can be stacked to 2 or 3 layers, and the position where they are placed impacts the subsequent turns. It’s a strategic game, and there are aspects of analog games mixed into it. Regret joyously. “I should have put this ring a little more inside!”

＜Feature 3＞ Random Setup

Although it is an abstract game, the ring modules are prepared randomly. But once the game starts, you must rely solely on your choices and decisions. All ring modules are disclosed, so make your best judgment on which ring to choose. Have future rounds in mind, read your opponent’s prospective moves in the next round, and change randomness into certainty.

＜Feature 4＞ A game that gets more exciting towards the end

Players alternate with each player having 4 turns across 6 rounds = 24 hands (placing 1 ring each turn). Bonus points can be earned depending on the situation at the final round, so the battle will get more competitive towards the end. Each player aims to find an unexpected move to turn the game around.

＜Feature 5＞ Think about the future on the completed lunar base

The game ends when the moon base is complete. The spectacular sight on the board that was created at the end of the competition is a collaborative work you’ve created together with your opponent. After the game, take a moment to look up at the moon in the night sky and think about what we might expect in the future.

5 Alive is an abstract card-playing game.

Goal
Each player starts with 5 lives. The winner is the last player to have any lives left.

Gameplay
Each player in turn plays a card from their hand. 'Normal' cards have a face value, and the aim is not to play a card that takes the running total above 21. If you do, you lose a life. If you manage to play the last card from your hand without taking the total above 21, then every other player loses a life. As well as 'normal' cards, there is also a variety of 'wild' cards that perform special actions, like resetting the running total, skipping the next player, reversing the direction of play or causing other players to draw extra cards.

Dragons have plundered the land of Keydom for its treasures, which they are now hoarding in the network of caves around Keytown.

In competition with other players, in Keydom's Dragons you lead a band of eight plucky townsfolk (workers). You will send some of your workers into the caves while the dragons are abroad in order to recover their treasure hoards piece by piece. Other workers will acquire help and assistance in the town, or attempt to find a way past the castle guards using strength or bribes, opening the way for your remaining workers to enter the castle rooms and spend the treasures your team has recovered to buy valuable artefacts.

Once all of the castle's artefacts have been claimed, the player whose band has acquired the most artefacts is victorious, gaining recognition and renown throughout Keydom.

The excitement of ending the round to catch your opponents off guard

The pleasure of playing your effect cards and making combos

It's a set collection card game like Rummy. The origami created especially for the game is just the illustrations on the cards.

In Everdell Duo, you either compete against your single opponent or play co-operatively with another player to earn the most points. You accomplish this by placing workers to gather resources, then use those resources to play cards face up in front of you, creating your own woodland city.

Cards may be played from your hand or from the face-up area on the board called the meadow. However, only cards touching the sun or moon token may be played from the meadow, and players move these tokens each time they perform a turn. Therefore, planning for and timing which cards you play is critical.

Each game you try to achieve various events, the requirements of which differ from game to game, making certain cards and combinations more important to pursue.

The game lasts for four seasons, then players add their scores to determine the winner. If you're playing co-operatively, check the requirements for the chapter you are playing to see whether you have won.
