The old world is changing. The Kingdom of Lydia minted the world's first gold coin. Bartering and trading will soon be replaced by coins as the dominant medium of exchange throughout civilization... Lions of Lydia is a bag-management and engine-building game about the rise of currency. As an influential leader, you send merchants to exchange resources and increase your land holdings. When the nobles arrive, they bring into play their Lydian Lion coins - which have unparalleled purchasing power. To achieve victory, you must manage the traders well and complement their skills with the cards on your tableau. Traditional merchants produce basic resources needed to build your engine, but if you don't convert your resources into coins, you won't be able to buy the most valuable cards! Therefore, noble Lydian merchants - and their gold lion coins - are the key to success. When enough properties have been developed, the game ends and a winner is declared! Will you put together the best traders to achieve your goals? Will you be the first to get the most valuable properties? Will you become the master of the new, golden currency: the Lions of Lydia?

In That's a Question! the well-known format of asking questions is combined with voting on the answer. At the start of the game, each player is given a hand full of cards, containing words and sentences in three different colors. On your turn, choose a player and ask them a question based on one of the three words or phrases from your card. You add the text on the other two cards to that question, for example: What would you miss more if it no longer exists? Facebook or doors? Then that player answers in secret and the other players try to guess what that player would answer. Once everyone has voted, you start counting points. You get points if you got it right and if you reach a certain number of points, you also get a bonus token. The player with the most points at the end of the game wins!

Darkest Doom is een competitief strategiespel met RPG-elementen. Het speelt zich af in een duistere fantasiewereld, geïnspireerd op het 17e-eeuwse Europa en bewoond door antropomorfe dieren. Overleef jij de 8 dagen van de Zonsverduistering terwijl de Duisternis de regio Betel probeert te vernietigen, en strijd je tegelijkertijd met de andere Wachters om een van de vier paden naar de overwinning te voltooien? In het bordspel Darkest Doom bestuur je een van de vier formidabele Wachters, elk met unieke vaardigheden en eigenschappen. Tijdens je verkenningstocht door de regio Betel kun je profiteren van de verschillende terreinen en hun unieke kenmerken. Je verbetert de statistieken van je Wachter door missies te voltooien die je worden toegewezen door Vicar Percival, waarbij je je strategie en houding ten opzichte van het spel aanpast aan de statistieken die je kiest om te upgraden. Tijdens je verkenningstochten kom je ook oude relikwieën tegen die je helpen om een van de vier overwinningsvoorwaarden te behalen. Elke nieuwe ronde is een nieuwe dageraad, en dankzij de Citadel-aanvulling krijg je altijd hulp bij het aanvullen van je handkaarten, die je kunt kiezen uit verschillende stapels: Uitrusting, Spreuken en Vallen. Dezelfde kaart heeft verschillende effecten, afhankelijk van de speler die hem gebruikt en de statistieken die ze hebben gekozen om te verbeteren. Speel alleen met de Bot Guardians-modus, waarmee je met maximaal drie geautomatiseerde Guardians kunt spelen, of bewijs je vaardigheden door drie andere spelers uit te dagen in dit duistere fantasy-avontuur dat elementen van rollenspel, verkenning, handicapmanagement en traditionele bordspellen combineert.

In this Carcassonne expansion, your mayor will compete for the favor of rival knights before being summoned for a crisis meeting. Use your messenger and scarecrow wisely to extend your influence even further. This expansion is perfect for Carcassonne fans looking for new ways to expand their influence. This mayor lets you replace other players' meeples with your own, creating even more interaction, and the messengers can assist you wherever there are roads! Instead of a regular meeple, you can also use your messenger or mayor. With the mayor, it's sometimes possible to replace another player's meeples with your own. However, if the new town hall tile is placed next to a mayor, it's removed without activating its ability. At the same time, messengers move along completed roads to give you extra power for projects. Finally, the scarecrow can also create majorities on fields!

In this Carcassonne expansion, you build towers and post guards to protect your land from theft. If your guards spot the thieves, you'll receive points as a reward!

This means you'll have to think more strategically about where to place your tiles, which presents a fun new challenge for Carcassonne fans! If you draw a tile with a tower building site, you must place a tower section there. Additional tower sections can be placed on it during the game. Now you can place a meeple as a guard on the tower. If a tile with a thief symbol is then drawn, you score points for your guards, or your tile is stolen if there are no guards!

Explore the undiscovered regions of Arnak! Twisted Paths is the final major expansion for Lost Ruins of Arnak. It adds a new double-sided map larger than the base game; each side has its own layout, research track, and temple, plus brand-new mechanics and components (such as new temple tiles and a new resource: Dark Tablets). You can explore the day side of the map and ascend the Owl Temple, or brave the night and venture into the dark caverns of the Spider Temple. The highlight is the large, double-sided board with two new research tracks, each with unique rules and components. On the day side, you climb the white stone of the Owl Temple. This side uses new temple tiles that, when combined, can create additional idol spaces, and introduces a third research marker, a lantern, which unlocks even more powerful research rewards. On the night side, you'll explore the dark caverns of the Spider Temple. Here, a new resource, dark tablets, will appear, allowing you to summon mysterious altars and place artifacts directly on the research track to use during your ascent. Beware: dark tablets offer powerful rewards, but can also cost you points if you become overly ambitious. Besides the two new maps, the expansion also includes new guards, locations, and assistants. For solo play, there's additional content: Rival tiles for the new boards, plus Purple Rival tiles and Rival Objectives—two mini-expansions previously released online as print-and-play.

Dark times hang over the kingdom of Thebes. The blind, aged King Oedipus has abandoned the throne in disgrace and asked his sons, Polyneices and Eteocles, to rule the city together. But power corrupts, and old feuds demand new blood. Soon, Polyneices leads an army from the rival city of Argos against his own brother. The Theban nobles support Eteocles, who is struggling to maintain his authority in the city. The young king calls for the defense of the seven city gates, while seven champions of the attacking forces launch their assault. Meanwhile, the famed citadel of Thebes, the Cadmea, lies in ruins; it has been neglected since the time of Oedipus's father, King Laius. It is as if the Fates themselves have turned against the current rulers of Thebes. While the common people prepare for war, the nobles whisper that it's time for new leadership—and that the rebuilding of the Cadmea must begin now! But restoring the glory of this sacred birthplace of Dionysus, god of the grape himself, is no easy task, especially with enemies at the gates. In Thebai, players take on the role of influential leaders of noble families during the turbulent late Bronze Age. Throughout the game, they work to rebuild Cadmea, Thebes' stronghold, restoring the city's exports, offering sacrifices to the city gods, and protecting the people, while heroes deny each other life outside the gates. Thebai is an interactive, challenging Euro game that approaches dice-placement mechanics in an innovative and tactical way. Players collaboratively create the available actions on the main game board, while carefully managing their personal skills and long-term strategies. Each turn offers exciting and rewarding choices: use unlocked actions on your player board, or place your dice on the shared board to promote them to powerful council members. This opens up unique scoring opportunities and triggers powerful combos. Inspired by Greek mythology, Thebai immerses you in the conflict between Polyneices and Eteocles. Defend the seven gates of Thebes, navigating through deep strategy, positive player interaction, and thematic tension—every step of the way.

The year is 1977. You're a promising musician dreaming of success with your band. Over the next few months, you'll rehearse, perform, write songs, and promote your band. With careful planning and a little luck, you'll become more famous than anyone else and break through as the artist of the year. Designed by rock legend and board game enthusiast Jackie Fox (of the 70s rock band The Runaways) and illustrated by Jennifer Giner, Rock Hard: 1977 is a game for 2 to 5 players ages 14 and up, with sessions lasting 45 to 90 minutes. Using worker placement mechanics, players take on the role of a rising rock star and compete to earn the most Fame points over multiple rounds. Rock Hard: 1977 is played over up to nine rounds, each representing a typical day in a month in 1977, from April through December. You win the game by accumulating the most Fame… And how do you earn Fame? By increasing your reputation, skills, and song quality, securing productions, performance, and promotional bonuses, scoring record deals and royalties, playing gigs, and hanging out at the hottest spots. Each player has a unique manager who helps them boost their music career with a specific skill. Of course, you have to pay for their work, otherwise it costs you Fame points. And sometimes a rocker needs a little extra help to get through the day. That's why players can also consume candy to get an extra turn and perform more actions. But overconsumption can lead to a sugar rush. The game is impressively designed. The personal player board is designed like an amplifier, with knobs acting as markers that you adjust during the game. The turn order is indicated by guitar picks, and the money resembles real dollars. Behind this original theme lies a strong mechanic. Players experience continuous growth, from the early stages of earning extra money and a small band to major concerts on legendary stages. All this with a wide variety of event cards and unique skills of rockers and managers that make every game different. Are you ready to become a rock star?

Expand The White Castle with a new game board and additional actions! Matcha introduces numerous new features that add variety to your gaming experience: a new bridge with its own dice, new locations where you can gain influence (the teahouse) and gather resources (the pond view), new clan members (the geishas), and an additional resource: the chasen . You also get an extra turn to accumulate as many influence points as possible. Designed by Sheila Santos and Israel Cendrero (the duo known as Llama Dice, also the authors of The Red Cathedral ) and featuring atmospheric illustrations by Joan Guardiet, The White Castle: Matcha is the first expansion to The White Castle . This expansion includes a central game board expansion, a green bridge, five green dice, sixteen coins, twenty-six tiles, four personal boards, twenty geisha figures, and thirty-nine cards. Just like in the base game, the goal is to accumulate as many influence points as possible by placing clan members in strategic locations throughout the castle. This expansion adds a fourth group of pawns to your personal inventory: the geishas, who are housed in the teahouse. The tea ceremony is at the heart of Japanese culture and embodies fundamental values such as hospitality, respect, and Zen philosophy. It is believed that tea, imported from China in the 12th century, helped solve the health problems of Buddhist monks. Over the years, the ceremony evolved into a haven for samurai, far from battle. Master Sen no Rikyu played a key role in transforming the tea ceremony into a sign of status and later even a platform for cultural, religious, and political negotiations. Thus, the ritual is not only about hospitality but also about respect and political finesse. Throughout the game, placing your clan members well in the Chashitsu (tea house) will grant you greater influence in the Himeji court. But that's not all: you also gain an additional action each round, increasing the total number of available actions in the game from nine to twelve. Are you ready to return to Himeji Castle and master the subtleties of the tea ceremony? Please note: The White Castle: Matcha box contains a small envelope with five cards. These are intended to replace their counterparts from the main deck. There was a small error in the graphics, which we discovered in time and were able to fix. We apologize for the inconvenience, and we hope you enjoy this fantastic expansion!
