ISS Vanguard is a cooperative board game for 1 to 4 players. In this game you find yourself in an epic Sci-Fi adventure and you are aboard the first human ship with the ability to explore space. During the game you go through a unique story written by Krzysztof Piskorski (Tainted Grail) full of tough choices, twists and branching storylines. The game comes with over 100 different crew members, each with unique characteristics. The gameplay is divided into 2 main phases: the ship phase and the landing on planets. During the ship phase, players manage their ship. You look at where you can improve your ship and then you prepare your crew to land on the next planet in search of answers to humanity's biggest questions. Together you choose the lander and customize it with modules. Each section then selects a crew member to take on the mission. During all stages of the game, players are guided to the Logbook, which consists of encounters, often written in the form of action-packed dialogues between the characters.

Tainted Grail: the Fall of Avalon is an unforgettable solo or cooperative adventure experience for 1-4 players. By combining Arthurian legends and Celtic mythology with a unique vision, you can influence the game world in a deep and meaningful way. A deep, branching storyline lets you tackle problems in different ways, so no two games play the same. Difficult decisions or harrowing choices wait around every corner and seemingly small tasks can reverberate with major long-term consequences. In a land slowly sinking into the Wyrdness and torn by conflict, surviving every day is a challenge in itself. Hunger, illness, bad weather and random incidents all conspire to end your journey. Guardian Menhirs, which kept you traveling safely through the realm, slowly darken, turning simple logistics into a complex puzzle. To overcome these challenges, your character develops along several conflicting lines, such as Brutality/Empathy or Practicality/Spirituality. These traits unlock a rich choice of mutually exclusive skills and lead to different deck-building strategies, making character development meaningful and deep. The character you develop will be tested through dozens of combat and non-combat encounters. Sometimes you have to use brute force, but often diplomacy is a better option. Whether you fight with your strength or your wits, the unique dice-less encounter system makes resolving each conflict fun and exciting while keeping you immersed in the game. In Avalon, a legend awaits behind every stone and every tree. All locations have their own rich stories and secrets to discover. Places and characters are often much more than they seem. As you slowly put together all the pieces of the larger puzzle, the country will always have a surprise waiting for you around the corner. Many secrets can only be discovered after several games. Created by one of the best Polish fantasy authors, Krzysztof Piskorski. The story of Tainted Grail: the Fall of Avalon aims to push the boundaries of non-linear storytelling, building on the rich experience.

Tamashii is a cyberpunk adventure board game with a post-apocalyptic atmosphere. Players will struggle to survive and pursue their agendas in two worlds at once - the physical world, filled with deadly machines and ruthless survivors, and the virtual world, populated by tracking software and malicious viruses. Players will try to achieve their goals on a modular city map. They will discover new locations, fight strong enemies and find important information and files needed to win the game. The second part of the game takes place on a virtual map. Here you will try to hack your opponents, unlock special bonuses or get one-time bonuses for completing the sequences. The game can be played in different scenarios. You may have to team up with other players, play against them, or even form alliances with your enemies. But watch every step you take; any conflict, collaboration or alliance can be a double-edged sword.

The main mode of Nemesis: Aftermath is Epilogue Mode, a short (45-60 minute) 5-turn game played after a regular game. As this epilogue begins, an unspecified amount of time has passed since the events that took place in the base game of Nemesis. Players use characters (who were not part of the base game) to enter the Nemesis to investigate. The ship bears many scars from its previous travails, so remnants of your previous playthrough will have effects on your epilogue playthrough. An epilogue game is much shorter than a regular Nemesis game, but it is more difficult and offers a very dynamic playing experience. Instead of objectives, players must deal with seemingly simple personal requirements, while trying to work together to tackle various alerts. Additionally, players who pursue more selfish interests may accept lucrative offers. The players also use the additional Shuttle board, which represents a new small ship (moored at the Nemesis) consisting of 4 additional room slots. The Nemesis: Aftermath expansion also adds 4 new rooms. You can play the epilogue game with fewer players than the number who actually participated in the regular game. Nemesis: Aftermath adds an attribute card for each character (both from the base game and the expansion). Trait cards provide specific advantages and disadvantages during the game. The trait card is placed face up next to the character board, and its rule applies for the rest of the game. Nemesis: Aftermath adds 5 new characters to the game. When players choose their character, the character draft card they select allows them to choose either the base game or the Aftermath character of a chosen color. For example, the red Aftermath character (the convict) can replace the red base game character (the soldier). After choosing their character, each player keeps their selected draft card, preventing other players from having the option to choose the other character of the same color. The two red characters (the convict and the soldier) can never be together in the same game. The Aftermath characters are very different from the base game characters.

Funeral Witch is a very mysterious and dark figure, who represents, among other things, the sadness, pain and regret after a loss. She can be moody, chaotic and temperamental, but still seeks comfort: with each encounter her behavior completely changes from the previous one. Will we discover the key to these changes? If so, will it be easier for us to prepare for the next meeting with her? Will we drown in the depths of black sorrow, or will we find a ray of light that will lead us to a mysterious goal? In this story we are accompanied by grayness, darkness and ruins. In this campaign, one of the most important aspects is a special extra 48-page script book. Normally in Etherfields, all adventures, scripts, conversations, scenes, etc. are read directly on cards and tiles, and the amount of text is heavily offset by images. There's a lot more pure text here, and it's mainly used to have very elaborate dialogues with the characters of this campaign.

Create a second home with this camp for your characters. This miniature can be expanded in different phases. The first stage is just a campfire with some sharp poles to ward off dangers. In Kings of Ruin it increases your Terror regeneration during the night and can be upgraded to the second phase with an Action. The second phase adds many important camp supplies, such as stew, provisions, medicinal herbs, and even musical instruments. In addition to the effects of the first phase, it also increases Health regeneration in Kings of Ruin. Of course you can upgrade it to the third state with an Action. Finally, the third phase of the camp adds some shelter, secured by runes and wyrd candles. As expected, this final stage provides protection against the Wyrdness in Kings of Ruin, aiding players in deeper explorations of the wyrd-covered side of the map, or allowing them to better survive if for some reason all beacons are extinguished are. Since Location Cards in Tainted Grail: Kings of Ruin are only removed when you travel from one major part of the island to another, the camp remains in the same state until you decide to tear it down. But because taking it to the final stage requires significant investment, it is advisable to be sure where you want to build it. And remember, an unguarded camp can be destroyed or plundered by wandering guards!
