NEW GAMES!
The Banishing
(3-5 Players/45 mins.)
Ages 14+
A dark void has opened, and undead creatures are attempting to enter our world. You have come together as guardians who must work together to force the undead back through the void. However, the longer it takes, the stronger the undead become, threatening to overwhelm all.
In The Banishing, players collect cards from the Void to form melds to cast unique spells and effects in an effort to complete the ritual of Banishing, which will hurl the undead back through the Void. Players must work together to create those melds, as well as to protect and heal each other from attacks by the undead in order to succeed.
Ghostel
(2-4 Players/45-60 mins.)
Ages 12+
Ghostel is a  semi-cooperative family game for  2-4 players that plays in  60 minutes.
Prey on the  phobias of guests by turning into their worst nightmares. Work with other ghosts to combine forces, and  scare away the hardiest of hotel patrons to earn  upgrades and get even scarier!
The randomised guest and dice roll mechanic means each round is different from the next,  but there's more than luck to winning the game.

Sea of Clouds
(2-4 Players/45 mins.)
Ages 10+
In Sea of Clouds, as captain of a flying pirate ship, recruit a cutthroat crew, collect relics and unearth the best rum by gathering shares of Loot. Then send your pirates aboard enemy ships to plunder their treasure!
In each round of the game, players take turns divvying up shares of Loot to gain Rum, Relics, Objects, and Pirates. In some rounds, when ships are flying close together, they will also clash in a Boarding action, using the effects of any Pirates they picked up to gain Doubloons and plunder Loot.
RESTOCKED GAMES
Terraforming Mars
(1-5 Players/90-120 mins.)
Ages 12+
In the 2400s, mankind begins to terraform the planet Mars. Giant corporations, sponsored by the World Government on Earth, initiate huge projects to raise the temperature, the oxygen level, and the ocean coverage until the environment is habitable. In  Terraforming Mars , you play one of those corporations and work together in the terraforming process, but compete for getting victory points that are awarded not only for your contribution to the terraforming, but also for advancing human infrastructure throughout the solar system, and doing other commendable things.
Scythe
(1-5 Players/90-115 mins.)
Ages 14+
It is a time of unrest in 1920s Europa. The ashes from the first great war still darken the snow. The capitalistic city-state known simply as "The Factory", which fueled the war with heavily armored mechs, has closed its doors, drawing the attention of several nearby countries.

Scythe is a Worker Placement/Economic Engine board game set in an alternate-history 1920s period. It is a time of farming and war, broken hearts and rusted gears, innovation and valor. In Scythe, each player represents a character from one of five factions of Eastern Europa who are attempting to earn their fortune and claim their faction's stake in the land around the mysterious Factory. Players conquer territory, enlist new recruits, reap resources, gain villagers, build structures, and activate monstrous mechs.
Grimslingers
(1-6 Players/15-90 mins.)
Ages 14+
In a land beyond God's reckonin' is a place called the Forgotten West - a cursed land of sorts in the American frontier, housing the damned, the mysterious, the unfortunate. You ended up there, God knows why, and you sure ain't leavin' anytime soon.

The Iron Witch, a downright mysterious bein', has turned you into a Grimslinger, a powerful witch imbued with metal, machine, and fancy elemental powers. Now yer maker's requirin' all his newly sired to duel each other so that he can make y'all into witches proper for his own purposes.

Grimslingers is a strategic, sci-fi fantasy western themed card game that features two different modes of play: versus and co-op. In versus mode, 2-6 players go head-to-head in teams or a free-for-all using a wide selection of spells, items and abilities.
In co-op mode, 1-4 players work together through a narrative campaign composed of four 60-90 minute play sessions, battling strange creatures, overcoming intense challenges, collecting loot, gaining levels, and exploring a truly unique wild west.
