Inspired by the hit video game that has sold more than 15 million copies worldwide, Monster Hunter World: The Board Game brings massive monster minis into a cooperative, choose-your-own-adventure battle campaign! It's time to travel to an unknown land, because the Astera base camp needs you. Become a hunter of the Fifth Fleet to hunt down and slay the fearsome monsters that roam the New World. Protect the base camp and craft awesome new gear with the loot from your enemies so you can take on bigger beasts! The choose-your-own-adventure element immerses you in the New World and offers five unique ways to approach each monster before entering battle. Enjoy the beauty of the landscape as in the video game and feel the tension build as you progress through the scenario. Enter dynamic and dangerous battles where positioning and teamwork are crucial to success. Leap away from devastating attacks and strike when the opportunity presents itself. One wrong move could be your downfall! Where you strike is also important. Earn the loot you need for the weapons you want by targeting different parts of a monster and depleting it over time. Speaking of weapons, use your player board to track your health, stamina, and equipment. Just like in the video game, your weapon is essentially your fighter class, with a unique deck and upgrades that you can trade through crafting to get newer (and more powerful!) bonuses and attacks.

We return to where it all began. After the board games Resident Evil 2 (2019) and Resident Evil 3 (2021), Resident Evil: The Board Game (2023) brings the sinister Spencer Mansion to the game board in a terrifying open world campaign. Based on the 2002 remake of the original Resident Evil video game, Resident Evil: The Board Game is a cooperative board game for 1-4 players. Built on the survival horror engine of the two previous board games, Resident Evil: The Board Game introduces plenty of new and updated mechanics to keep you on your toes. Solve ingenious new puzzles by unlocking doors, build the mansion's floor plan as you walk around, send characters on worthwhile missions and more. Setup is quick, as each scenario starts with just a few tiles. As you explore and open doors, you expand the map, opening new paths and discovering useful items... and deadly enemies. Resident Evil: The Board Game is a campaign game that lasts approximately 27 hours, where every decision counts and has far-reaching consequences. Every resource must be managed, every bullet must be counted. Fighting is not the only way to survive. You will have to decide when to attack and when to flee. But you don't always get a choice! As your campaign progresses, the mansion will evolve and the danger level will increase. The suspense and encounter cards will change, mysterious new cards will be added, and the effects of old cards will be adjusted to make them even more dangerous. But effects don't just happen over time. Tension cards can change enemy behavior at any time, suddenly making them more deadly. Little time? Each scenario of Resident Evil: The Board Game is also playable as a one-time session of 60-90 minutes. In the darkness lie your fears. Can you fight them and survive?

Earthborne Rangers is a customizable, cooperative card game set in the wilderness of the distant future. You take on the role of a Ranger, a protector of the mountain valley you call home: a vast wilderness transformed by monumental feats of science and technology devised long ago to save Earth from destruction. You start by building a deck that reflects your Ranger's interests, personal history, and personality. Then, as you explore the open world and your story takes shape, expand your deck with upgraded gear, refined skills, and memories of your journey. The story of Earthborne Rangers is presented as a branching campaign with a main story and numerous side stories. Here you can choose to follow the critical path or go your own way to discover the Valley's many fascinating characters, mysterious ruins and creatures, both familiar and strange. Each play session represents one day in the Valley, and you start at the same location on the map where you rested the previous night. Your goal is to either complete one of your available missions or explore the open world. The session ends when you are forced to rest (due to fatigue or injury), or when you choose to rest for the night. An individual gaming session is played in rounds, and those rounds consist of turns. On your turn, you perform one action: play a card from your hand or choose an action from a card on the table. Every action allows you to interact with the world thematically and narratively, and every time you take an action the world around you comes to life. Predators stalk their prey, rain falls from the sky, rocks tumble down the mountain to block your path, and much more.

Welcome to New Orleans, Louisiana, circa 1980: a vibrant city of music, food and magic. Neon lights flicker in dirty puddles along Bourbon Street; the innovations of the modern world collide with old and terrible traditions; and murder is never far away. Staffed with a roster of brilliant, colorful, and ultimately flawed private investigators, the Beaumont Agency specializes in solving cases that no one else can crack. In The Dark Quarter, an app-based cooperative adventure game set in the dark 1980s New Orleans, players each take control of a Beaumont cop and work together to solve the worst crimes New Orleans has to offer. It is a world full of magic, where curses are sold on every street corner, where voodoo priestesses and creatures of the night lurk, and where even the most mundane crimes have a hint of the supernatural. Through multi-scenario campaigns, the game tells a rich, dynamic story and invites players to make crucial decisions that not only affect their characters, but also change the direction and course of the story. The characters are not simple avatars that can be easily moved from scenario to scenario; instead, they are woven into the core of the story itself. Their fate and the fate of New Orleans are inextricably linked.

Gatefall is a strategic miniature game of tactics, deckbuilding and resources. In the game, a rift has opened between worlds, causing a war between very different types of characters. The basic game mode is designed for two players to compete against each other. Arena mode allows 2-8 players to fight against each other in a Battle Royale setting. In a two-player game, players choose which team they want to control, the fantasy team consisting of Brog, Gildri, and Randar, or the Wasteland team consisting of Exile, Firebug, Penny, and Lost Boy. At the start of the game, each player has the same pile of ten cards, which contain seven "1" cards and three "0" cards. The first player draws five cards and adds the total of their values. That number represents the number of actions the player can use for his team. You can move or attack one space as an action. These actions can be spread across the entire team or used by just one character, depending on the character's attributes. During an attack, the attacking player rolls the number of dice corresponding to the attacking character's attack stats. The defending player rolls the number of dice equal to the defending character's defense dice. The number of red rolls is added up and the defender takes damage equal to the number of red rolls the attacking character rolls over his defending roll total. Each player then adds up the number of green dice they rolled and earns one coin for each green die. Coins are saved and used to purchase new weapons from the weapons market, to destroy "zero" cards in their hands, to buy better cards or to upgrade their individual character stats. Each character has different upgrades. Players can choose one of the available stats to upgrade for each of their characters, and spend the appropriate number of tokens to get those upgrades. When a character is fully upgraded, that character unlocks their special power, which is unique to each character. When a character is killed, the player who killed that character earns the number of victory points printed on the character's upgrade card, and the player whose character was killed draws a "zero" card from the "zeros" for each victory point, stack on the killed character's upgrade card and add it to their discard pile. The killed character immediately revives, but that character cannot move or attack on the next turn and loses a turn while being revived. The first player to reach ten victory points wins the game.

Galaxy Defenders is a sci-fi cooperative tactical combat game where 1-5 players fight together against an approaching alien threat. Each player takes control of one or more agents with unique powers to defend the planet from alien invasion. The gameplay revolves around a tactical combat system, using custom ten-sided dice. Each player successively plays their Agent turn and then one Aliens turn. Players take their turns, agent and aliens, clockwise until the last player completes their Aliens turn. When this is done, the game moves to the event phase which takes the players to the next round. Players can choose up to five agents: Marine, Biotech, Infiltrator, Sniper or Hulk. The battle for Earth is carried out in a series of twelve missions organized into a fully story-driven campaign. Mission events affect future games in two different ways: 1 - Each mission has multiple endings and the outcome of each mission will change the flow of the story. 2 - The agents gain experience during the missions. This experience transforms a good soldier into a perfect Galaxy Defender agent with multiple skills, basic and enhanced tactics and the ability to use new devices, enhanced human weapons and Alien technology. The downloadable Galaxy Defenders: Alien Mind variant lets you transform the game into a competitive affair, with one player becoming the alien mastermind and controlling the alien army and maps in the game, trying to thwart the agents' every mission. To do this, the alien player completes their own game objectives and obtains new "alien signals" that can be teleported to the battlefield. This variant, which allows play with up to six players, can be used in a single mission or for an entire campaign of Galaxy Defenders. Using Alien Mind can increase the difficulty of the game and is only recommended for experienced players.

The beloved historical board game Britannia returns - now published by PSC Games! This edition includes over 200 beautifully crafted plastic miniatures and two ways to play: Classic Britannia (traditional 4-player game on the standard board) and Duel Britannia (faster 2-player game on a new board).

Each player controls different tribes and leaders, including the Angles, Saxons, Irish, Normans, Danes, Boudicca, King Arthur, Offa and many other recognizable names from British history. The power of each tribe will rise and fall as the game progresses through the centuries, so players must figure out when to expand and when to consolidate each. Classic Britannia plays as all Britannia fans know and love, benefiting from Lew Pulsipher's ongoing development and player feedback. Duel Britannia is a new, fast-playing two-player adaptation, on a new board including Ireland.

This expansion adds two new factions, the CHOAM and the Richese, to the Dune board game, along with 2 new variants. The Combine Honnete Ober Advancer Mercantiles or CHOAM controlled much of the economic affairs of the cosmos and had a great interest in Arrakis, beyond the production of spices. Due to his control over interplanetary trade, CHOAM was the greatest source of wealth in the Imperium. Influence in CHOAM was a major focus of political maneuvering in the Imperium, both to maximize dividends and to skim profits. CHOAM's leaders and bureaucrats were committed to controlling vital products that enriched the Great Houses. . . and CHOAM itself. House Richese, like the Ixians, had a well-deserved reputation for ingenuity and created important technological inventions. But Count Ilban Richese suffered a number of business blunders that threatened to bankrupt their fortunes. After being expelled from the Arrakis board, they were reduced to selling important creations to raise enough money to continue their efforts to compete. This expansion also introduces Leader Skills, which allow you to assign a skill such as Mentat, Swordmaster of Ginaz or Prana Bindu Adept to one of your leader disks. It also includes Advanced Stronghold Cards, which give you a "home field advantage" when fighting in a stronghold you control.

Between the 13th and 17th centuries, more than 900 monumental statues, Moaï, were erected on the Polynesian island of Rapa Nui, also called Easter Island. Become a powerful chieftain of Easter Island and gather tribesmen to best serve your village and please the gods. Cut, transport, and raise Moai to gather resources, turning them into sacrifices to honor your ancestors and secure your spiritual and political prowess. Each turn takes place in 3 phases. During the first phase, each player sends one of his figures onto the board, each in turn, until all the figures have been placed. The wizard determines the order of the next turn and the villagers are placed on the board to become transporters or scupltors. Thanks to the number of sculptors present in the quarry, each player collects Moais of different sizes. Moai or Pukao must be transported through a continuous chain of carriers whether they are from your clan or not. But be careful, you provide resources to your opponents when you use their transporter! Once you arrive at your destination, you can set up the Moai to grab the Ahu tile that you can play to your tune, as well as one or more resources depending on the size of the Moai. Styling your Moais allows you to exchange resources to acquire Offer Tokens. At the end of a round, if the number of ahu without moai is less than or equal to the number of players, the game ends. The winner is the player with the most victory points earned thanks to the Sacrifice and Extraordinary Sacrifice tiles.

Number of players: 2 - 4 players Game time: 60 - 180 minutes Age: From 12 years Publisher: DLP Games Language: English, German Orléans Stories is based on the bag-building mechanic of Orléans, where this mechanism has been further developed into a story in which players go through different eras and face different challenges. Instead of focusing on the city of Orléans and trading with the surrounding villages, the player now settles in the Loire Valley. Players must produce resources, establish villages and build forts and churches. They will experience times of prosperity and success, but also times of hardship; they must brave famine and plague, fight for their country, and perhaps conquer foreign lands to secure the lives of their colonists. But in the end there is peace and joint governance of territories and villages. The game contains two stories: "The First Kingdom" and "The King's Favor". “The First Kingdom” is an epic story that spans eight so-called eras, and each era has different terms and emphases. Sometimes knights settle, with whose help you can conquer foreign territories, sometimes the plague threatens to decimate the population of settlers, unless they all worked together to develop medicine. "The King's Favor" is shorter, simpler, and more suitable as an introduction to the game. In five eras, certain tasks must be completed and those who do not will be mercilessly dropped. The threat of having to end the game prematurely provides a constant thrill, but all tasks are achievable, so (usually) all players make it to the end. But you certainly shouldn't just focus on these tasks... it takes more to win! The different eras influence both the game parameters and the rules of the game, creating new strategic possibilities. This challenges players to constantly adapt to current circumstances, giving you the impression of experiencing a story. The legacy game is replayable and you can play it as many times as you want. The changes from era to era require a new way of seeing things from a distance, but this is made easier by a storybook where players will find not only all the relevant information and quirks of rules, but also hints on how to prepare.

Orléans Stories Erweiterung is an expansion for Orléans Stories that contains two new stories. In the third story, "The Settlers", you go back to the beginning of the settlement around Orléans. The hardworking farmers gradually expand their settlements with the help of old acquaintances such as craftsmen, monks and scholars, and they only experience minor skirmishes, which slightly affect their otherwise peaceful lives. A story for everyone who likes the silent construction without major outside disturbances. The fourth story, "England vs. France", is quite different from the previous one: the age-old feud between these two countries serves as the basis for the clashes between the teams. There are exactly four players involved, two of them play for France, the other two for England. But who is who? This secret is only revealed during the course of the game and often the surprise is great because one has bet on another competitor. Now it's time to quickly complete the common task and hope that the secret messages will also contribute to the victory to ultimately prevail.
