Each player is given two numbered card holders that can be magnetically linked for a unique gaming experience. Strategically place your cards in the front and back lines of your card holder to defend your position or attack your opponents. Be warned though, once a card is placed, you can’t change it, so plan wisely and win with conviction! Playing with Group Cards Collect four cards of the same group to form a powerful set. This allows you to draw new cards and increase your advantage. Group cards not only contain important gameplay elements, but also offer fascinating historical insights into ancient Norse culture and mythology. Master the Power of the Action Cards There are nine different action cards, each with unique functions such as attack, defend or special tactics to achieve victory. Combine three identical action cards for a super action and leave your enemies in Valhalla. Each action card tells a story, and you decide how that story ends! The Game Board: Your Playing Field of Power From Helheim (the underworld) to Valhalla (the place for brave warriors), each space on the game board has a purpose. Here cards are played, traded or sacrificed in your quest for victory. Attack, Defense & Negotiation Use powerful axes and bows to attack your opponents, or protect yourself with a shield. Negotiate wisely, take cards from your opponents, and work together as a team to defeat your opponents. But beware: nothing is certain in the game of Vikings, where every move can mean the difference between glory and defeat. Team Play Option Strengthen the bond with your teammates, exchange cards and combine your strengths to achieve a common victory. But beware: consultation is forbidden and strategy is everything! Educational Element The Viking Card Game not only offers exciting competition, but is also an educational journey through Viking history and mythology. Players learn about important figures, mythological stories and the culture of this fascinating time period in an interactive way. This makes the game not only a source of entertainment, but also a unique educational experience, suitable for all ages. Are you ready to bring out your inner Viking?

Kelp is an asymmetric game for two players that offers them the unique opportunity to immerse themselves in the natural world of pyjama sharks and common octopuses, set in a South African kelp forest. The game combines hide-and-seek with bluffing and manipulation, and deckbuilding with dice bag building. Players take on the role of these iconic sea creatures and find that the game mechanics closely match their real-life behavior. Each creature has a unique path to victory. The octopus, known for its cunning and adaptability, moves stealthily around the board by playing cards and managing its visible and hidden blocks, reflecting the animal’s remarkable ability to camouflage and deceive. In contrast, the shark, embodying the merciless and determined hunter, patrols its territory and attempts to capture the elusive octopus by rolling dice and using special abilities to influence its luck, a representation of the shark’s instinctive behavior and predatory nature. The game is an exciting mix of deck building, dice bag building, hide and seek, bluffing and manipulation. There are three ways the game can end: the shark wins by successfully attacking the octopus. The octopus wins by surviving until the shark is exhausted, or by eating all four seafood.

Tactical area control meets adventure in this cooperative game of animals versus machines, designed by the creator of Parks and the inventor of Bloc by Bloc. Play as one of four unique factions and assemble your team of defenders from a wide variety of animal characters to withstand the machines on a modular board that changes with every play. War has come to the Wild. For millennia, animals have endured shifting alliances and the cycle of hundred-year seasons—but never have they known an enemy quite like this. An army of machines powered by cursed magic is rampaging through the Commonwood, enveloping all in its path and exploiting the world’s warmth. Across the swamps, plains, mountains, and forests, brave defense groups rise to resist the machine occupation. The partisans belong to four factions, each determined to fight back in their own way: the Council with its fortresses, the Order with its flame-wisdom, the Sect with its ingenious inventions, and the Coven with its spells. Players are leaders of the resistance, gathered at a dangerous crossroads in the war against the machines. Construction of a new machine core and a sprawling factory complex has begun on the site of an animal village. Engines build walls to enclose habitat after habitat, while mechs guard the expanding factories and spread toxic pollution. You must work together despite longstanding disagreements and help your network of fellow defenders deploy in the right places and at the right times to win this crucial battle. Remove pollution, fight mechs, breach walls, build camps, and defeat the factories before the machines complete construction of the core and conquer this region of the Commonwood. Can the Defenders band together to restore the land and outsmart a seemingly impossible enemy? Or will the Commonwood succumb to an endless industrial winter? It’s up to you and your comrades to decide.

In Kinfire Delve: Scorn's Stockade, a tactical and cooperative card game for 1-2 players, battle your way through the deck of challenge cards to reach Scorn, the Master of the Well, and face him in an epic final battle. Scorn's Wel consists of four challenge cards, with Scorn himself in the middle. When a challenge is defeated, another takes its place, with a total of 57 challenge cards. When you take on the Well's challenges, you may play a skill card from your hand, but only if it matches the color of the challenge card. For example, if you are facing a red Challenge card, you may only play a red Skill card. Some cards have two suits and some are white, which means they are a wild card. If the card you play doesn't beat the challenge, you can add some progress and try again, although you may receive a penalty. Other seekers can help by playing one of their own cards as a boost, but be careful. If you run out of cards, you are dealt an exhaustion card before you can draw a new hand. Exhaustion cards are never good, but some are worse than others. Beating a challenge gives you a reward, such as regaining health or delving deeper into the Well, which is represented by discarding unseen challenge cards. Once you reach the bottom of the Wel, you'll meet Scorn himself. All seekers share a health meter, and if it reaches zero, you are defeated. This is a game that requires cooperation and perseverance, as Atios' cards are unpredictable and quite dangerous.

Witchcraft! is a fast-playing, card-driven solo game where you lead a coven of witches in a fantasy world where magic is real - and so are monsters. Based on the hidden/revealed mechanic of Resist! you decide when to use magic to defeat the challenges you encounter. As you complete missions and defeat enemies, you try to prove to the villagers that magic is not evil and convince a jury that you are protecting the village. Three judges will decide your fate and their conviction is strong. Can you convince them? Or will evil conquer you and the village? At the start of the game you assemble a coven of witches from families of women, represented by a deck of cards. By selecting multiple witches from a family, you make that family more powerful. Each family focuses on different tasks in the game - revealing challenges, increasing attack power, discovering the judges' beliefs, or capturing familiars to help you in your battle. The battle is real and each of the eight judges faces a different villain. Is it the Headless Horseman, Baba Yaga, the Scarecrow or some other monster? The setup sees you choose three judges, their missions and their unique challenges - offering 56 possible combinations with great variety in the types of challenges and monsters you'll encounter. If you fail two missions or lose five villagers, you lose the game. Even if you beat the missions, you still have to go through the trial and you won't know your fate for sure until you reveal the conviction of the judges and see if you've done enough to convince them.

In Forgeflame you lead a team of three adventurers as they race to explore mines, collect ores, and forge artifacts. At the start, players shuffle their adventurers' base cards and take turns drawing a card, using their characters' unique abilities. After four cards, each player adds an advanced card from their characters to create a more powerful deck and draws a new hand. As the game progresses, unexpected events unfold and Kobolds relentlessly harass the adventurers. Victory requires smart planning, teamwork and clever tactics. The game ends when a player forges their fourth artifact and the points are counted.

In Neotopia, a competitive and fast-paced game, you will be part of a team of Visionaries building a futuristic pilot city focused on the Energy, Technology, Community and Sustainable Food fields. You build elements in the three regions of the city to complete patterns in your hands. A good combination of tile placement and map management can result in very impactful turns, completing multiple maps and further expanding the city. Interaction between players is important because all players build the same board and can benefit from what others have built in their previous turns. You try to build the most harmonious city possible, because that will be essential for your score: at the end of the game you score the regions where you have your two highest scores, but you triple the score of your lowest scoring region. So be alert! Even if it is tempting to build in regions that are more developed and where you have already scored a lot of points, if you don't start developing the other regions, you won't be able to win the game. Balance is the key word in Neotopia, as is the kind of future the players are trying to build.
