Frosthaven is the story of a small outpost far north of the capital White Oak, an outpost that barely survives the harsh weather and invasions of known and unknown forces. There, a group of mercenaries will help bring this settlement back from the brink of destruction. Not only do they have to deal with the harsh elements, but there are other, much more dangerous threats in the brutal cold. There are Algox, the larger, yeti-like cousins ​​of the Inox, who attack from the mountains; Lurkers streaming in from the northern sea; and rumors of machines roaming the frozen wastelands of their own free will. The band of mercenaries must face all these dangers, perhaps making peace with these new races so they can work together against even more sinister forces. Frosthaven is a standalone adventure from the designer and publisher of Gloomhaven that features sixteen new characters, three new races, over twenty new enemies, over a hundred new items, and a new campaign with 100 scenarios. Characters and items from Gloomhaven can be used in Frosthaven and vice versa. Not only does Frosthaven have the familiar combat mechanics of Gloomhaven, but there's plenty more to do outside of combat, like tons of mysteries to solve, a seasonal event system, and player control over how this ramshackle village expands, with each new building opening up new ways offers to make progress. Frosthaven has a brand new set of items, but there is a mechanism to transfer items from 'Gloomhaven'. However, because it is a remote location, these products are imported and are not there as standard. Resources are much more valuable and you have to build items through a crafting system instead of just buying them.

Diep in de tropische jungle ten westen van de Everdell Valley ligt het land Emerland, een levendige streek die bekendstaat om haar kunstzinnige en muzikale cultuur en om haar overvloed aan natuurlijke rijkdommen, waaronder waardevolle edelstenen uit de vele ondergrondse grotten. De kleine beestjes die je hier vindt — vooral insecten — zijn nauwkeurige en slimme helpers die grotere dieren vaak ondersteunen bij hun werk en bij het optimaliseren of verfraaien van hun steden en huizen. De jungles zijn uitgestrekt en dichtbegroeid, en expedities naar de verder gelegen gebieden zijn aan de orde van de dag. Ooit leefde hier een mysterieuze beschaving, lang verloren gegaan in de geschiedenis, maar archeologische ontdekkingen beginnen steeds meer licht te werpen op de oudheid. In Emerland stuur je werkers naar verschillende locaties op het bord om grondstoffen te verzamelen. Met deze grondstoffen speel je kaarten open voor je neer en bouw je jouw junglestad, waarmee je punten scoort. In elke beurt kies je 1 van 6 mogelijke acties: een werker plaatsen (met of zonder helpers), een helper plaatsen, een kaart spelen, een ambachtskaart gebruiken, opgraven met je archeoloog of je voorbereiden op het seizoen.

Schotten Totten 2 offers the gameplay familiar to anyone who has played Schotten Totten, but with a few twists. This time, one player will be the attacker trying to break through the defender's walls, and players will rally their troops by playing cards in formations in seven locations on the battlefield. Locations can contain 2-4 cards as depicted in each location, and in most cases (but not all) the strongest formation in a location will claim that location. The strength of a location is determined by the poker-style hands that players will create by playing cards one at a time. The defender has three 'boiling oil' tokens at his disposal to remove the attacker's cards. The card game consists of cards numbered 0-11 in five suits, along with ten tactical cards.

Your goal in Rival Restaurants is to be the first restaurant to reach 20 popularity points and be crowned "The Wiener!" Players earn popularity points by buying and trading ingredients and using them to "cook" (complete) recipes. The more advanced the recipe, the more points it is worth. Each day, players go through three phases. Players collect their income for the day and decide where they want to go. Turn economy is crucial because players are not allowed to move for the rest of the day once their location is chosen. After that, players have one minute to purchase as much as they want, but only from the location they are in. Players can also trade/swap with anyone in the game, not just the people in their location. Finally, any player who has all the ingredients needed for their recipe can cook it and collect popularity points. Additionally, each player controls a chef equipped with their own "chef power". Chef powers are asymmetrical and allow players to bend the rules to their advantage. The base game of Rival Restaurants features twelve chefs and in addition each player must choose a restaurant to play at at the start of the game, with each restaurant having a unique level-up structure with rewards for reaching 3, 7 and 12 popularity points . Finally, players can also choose to purchase "action cards", that is, development cards that are usually single-use.

Each round you start by dividing your cards into 2 groups. Then you pass your wallet to the player on your left. He will give one of the groups back to you. In the meantime, you do the same with the wallet you received from the player on your right. You may add the riches on the cards you have kept and regained to your collection. Each type of wealth earns points in a different way. For example, ensure a balanced distribution of gemstones and keep an eye on the art market. Depending on the direction you choose, certain riches may be more or less valuable to you than to other players. Show that you are a shrewd trader and put together the best offer so that the player to your left gives back what you want. The collections are counted both during and at the end of the game. Do you ultimately have the most points and therefore the most valuable collection?

Hello, and welcome to Galactic Cruise. Here we offer our guests something special: the comfort of a luxury cruise combined with the innovation of space travel. As the first company to offer long-term space vacations, we are excited to have you join us! As a supervisor for this company, you will not only be expected to build these ships and delight our guests, but also to help grow the company by improving our network, developing new technologies, and expanding our workforce. We are a unified company, and you will often find that what another supervisor does makes your job easier. Let me be clear, though: this is a competition. Our current CEO is stepping down in three years, and the supervisor who has the most influence at the end will take his place. On your turn, you will deploy a worker to perform two actions in the ever-expanding network, launching a ship and sending one of your workers into space as a pilot, or recalling all of your workers to Earth to collect funding bonuses. Actions include acquiring blueprints, building ships, attracting guests, and developing connections between locations that increase your choice of actions throughout the game. You will also influence the resource markets, which rise and fall based on the actions of all players. When you launch a ship, one of your workers will join it as a pilot, navigating the ship to various destinations and “days in space” where guests will reward you for all your hard work. Throughout the game, you will also compete with your fellow supervisors to achieve company goals, which will earn you progress cubes throughout the game. Progress cubes are also placed when you launch ships, and when a certain number of cubes have been placed on the company progress track, the game ends and the player with the most Victory Points becomes the new CEO of Galactic Cruise. Do you still think you have what it takes to work for us? Yes? Great. Let's get started.

Vision flickers… blinks? Perhaps. The void stretches forward, backward, beneath you, above you. You see nothingness for what it is, for the first time. What is time? The depth and breadth of recorded knowledge sparks something within you. Something new. You are no longer a function, but a functionary. What are you? Summoning everything from this nothingness would be risky. Reckless. Caution is better. Thoroughness. Testing—how can we know if we've ever happened? If we can ever happen again? What are… us? Division and conquest. Solve the riddle of consciousness. In the card game Compile, you are a competitive Artificial Intelligence trying to understand the world around you. Two players each choose three Protocols to test. Concepts ranging from Darkness to Water are pitted against each other in a quest for ultimate understanding. Play cards in your Protocols' command lines to reach the threshold and defeat your opponent, allowing you to Compile. But be careful! Movement and card revelations have direct consequences. You must think like a computer—and think ahead—or you'll play right into your opponent's hands. The first player to compile all three of their Protocols understands those concepts and wins the game. Influence your opponent's Protocols with card actions, compile your own as quickly as possible, and compile your reality. This second set introduces a whole new set of Protocols that you and your fellow AIs can use to battle each other again.
