NEW AND RESTOCKED GAMES
Coup
(2-6 Players/15 mins.)
"City mutiny" is a mouth gun class tour, play a bit like "I was undercover", the rules are very simple. The first edition of the game is generally a group of four people, each player will be assigned to the beginning of two cards, the initial two gold coins. Players do not know what role each other - the initial game a total of 5 categories of roles, each role has its own special ability and ability to co10unter. Such as the Duke's ability to make money more outstanding, like the Ambassador has a special pumping capacity, assassins can pay assassination, the captain can steal, the countess can stop the assassination.

 Before the game begins, the player wants to choose his own faction, and the one you believe must have to attack other pagans.  The game players can give the bank money to change their camp, you can also spend two dollars to the bank to let others change camp. In any round, the player can declare himself not the Duke, the relief of the money are taken away. Expansion package to join the camp mechanism, so that the game is more intense confrontation. Players do an action every round, such as "income (take a dollar)", "sponsor (take two dollars)", "coup (pay 7 yuan, let a player open identity)", these actions do not need to show Identity. If you want to use the role of special ability, then you must declare the identity of it. Such as you have the Duke, you want to use the Duke's special ability to "tax", you need to accept other players question your identity, if no one questioned, then use the "tax" received three dollars. If someone is questioned and the other question is successful, you must die a role as a punishment; of course, because there is a role, the other person who is questioned will die a role, your Duke will enter the pile to get a new Character. The greatest fun of the game through mediation, cheating, hiding and other means to let themselves live to the last.
Sentient
(2-4 Players/45-60 mins.)
Sentient  is a dice-manipulation game by J. Alex Kevern (World's Fair 1893, Gold West). As with his other games, Sentient is filled with smart, simple, and rewarding choices. Each turn involves choosing an available bot, adding it to your factory, and deciding how to divide your resources between optimizing your bot and wooing investors. Players who enjoy a satisfying puzzle will appreciate the difficulty in adding the chosen bot to their factory. Each slot has a die on either side that will be modified based on the chosen bot card. But, adding another adjacent bot the next turn will modify the dice once again. The dice at the end of the round will determine how efficiently your bots were programmed and will grant you varying points based on the dice numbers. You may have everything perfectly sorted out - that is, until the last bot you choose changes the adjacent dice. Your plan can crumble and points can easily be lost with an errant decision or wrong choice!
Splendor: Cities of Splendor Expansion - $39.99
Cities of Splendor introduces four complete expansions to the Splendor base game, each accentuating and highlighting a different aspect of the original game. Towers allow players to reserve additional cards, special powers introduce a new layer of engine building, cities give players a new goal to strive towards, and a range of exciting development cards add spice to any game. Each of these four expansions offers a completely unique approach to the game of Splendor without compromising the game`s original elegance.
