Video Vortex is a competitive deck-building game for 2-4 players set on a radioactive future Earth inhabited by video-obsessed mutants. Each genre-worshipping character must strategically use their individual mutant powers as they battle opponents and navigate game effects in an attempt to seize control of the wasteland. During their respective turns, players will expend energy playing special cards, strengthening their deck with rental equipment from the local video store, and removing chosen cards from play to weaken enemies. Runtime, the measure of mutant health, is limited and unique to each character. By pushing an opponent's runtime past their limit through Lo-Fi and Hi-Fi attacks, mutants collect "Be Kind" tokens as trophies representative of their conquest. Once three distinctive trophies have been collected, victory is declared by the reigning champion.

Winter becomes spring, the trees turn green, flowers emerge, nature awakens. So are two hungry squirrels. They decide to prepare for winter early this time. Squirrel Away is a game for children aged 4 and up and combines sensorimotor, strategic and dexterity elements into a challenging, fun experience. Over three rounds, the two squirrels play cards to build their nest. The one who has collected the most food in the nest wins the game. At the start of a round (spring, summer or autumn) each player takes 4 cards. Players take turns playing these cards and performing actions such as: - grab 3 food from the bag and place them in the nest (the nest is a round wooden ring) - drop an owl ball above your opponent's nest - steal a berry, beechnut, mushroom or seed from your opponent's nest with the magpie card All food that falls from a nest ends up in the mess. Depending on the variant being played, the food in the mess can be deducted from the food in the nest. There are three variants, ranging from easy for the smaller children to more strategic for the older or more experienced children (or parents). The basic game counts the food in the nest, the first variant subtracts the mess and the second variant gives points to the different types of food.

Deep State: New World Order is a dystopian game about world domination and global conspiracies. The game takes place over several rounds and over the course of a round, players begin the action phase, which is followed by the takeover phase. These two phases repeat, and at the end of the round comes the treaty phase. During the action phase, each player performs one action, the most important of which is to send your agents to infiltrate political, financial and research institutions represented by objective cards in the infiltration zone. You must race for objective cards as other players can send more agents to intercept the card they need. Players can also progress to World Domination projects including Comintern, Unified Nations, Spyware, and Deep State itself, giving players tangible advantages in the game. They may also choose to conduct covert, high-leverage operations that require sacrificing operatives. During the takeover phase, players take their captured cards and return some of their agents. The treaty phase begins when all objective cards in the infiltration zone have been captured. Each player can then make a single pact that will see them team up with powerful organizations, some known around the world, while others hide in secret. At the end of the game, players calculate their influence (victory points) generated by their goal cards, by participating in global projects and by their treaty cards. Many cards interact with each other, creating even more influence. The player with the most influence wins the game and becomes master of the world we know.

Pharaoh is dead and his burial barge is sailing slowly down the Nile to his grave where his spirit will stand before Osiris' judgment. Pharaoh had no descendants, so tradition holds that the country's governors must build monuments in Pharaoh's honor so that Osiris will favor his spirit in the afterlife. Accordingly, Pharaoh's successor will be the governor who builds the greatest tribute to the late king. Resources and workers are limited, the gods are fickle, and time is short; the memorials must be completed before the ship reaches the temple of Osiris at Men-nefer. Sailing Toward Osiris is a euro-style, worker-placement, resources management, project completion and no direct conflict game. Downtime is kept to a minimum via a single-action, round-and-round turn structure that emphasizes timing decisions and subtle strategies.

The islands are still covered in dense fog. The further you go with your balloon over the island, the more the mist lifts and you explore the breathtaking landscape. Make good use of the local wind to save energy. Because you need it often enough to accelerate or slow down. Steer completely into the wind at the right time to reach your goal. You discover the adjacent landscape where the balloon is located by placing tiles on the adjacent spaces. This is how cities are built, monuments are erected and landscapes grow. First of the game round you have the opportunity to get more landscape tiles. Finally, you probably only get one tile, but you can control the wind direction, which can also be a decisive advantage. Once a player has connected all the landscapes to the balloon garden, the game ends. The Games Friends: "Islands in the Mist is such a fun and smart game. Because you have to use the wind to sail, there are quite a few tactical choices involved. The modules in the game feel like a complete extension , so you definitely get value for your money."

Onitama is a perfect abstract information game for two players. The game has a random starting position. On a 5x5 board, both players start with five pawns on their side, with the main pawn in the middle. Each player has two face-up cards, each representing a possible move for each of his pieces. There is a fifth card that cannot be used by either player. On a player's turn, he chooses one of his cards, moves one of his pieces according to the chosen card and replaces the card he used with the fifth card. The other player then chooses one of their cards, moves accordingly, and swaps that card with this fifth card - which of course is the card the first player just used. By moving to one of the opponent's pawns, that pawn is removed from the game. If you take the opponent's main pawn, or move your main pawn to the starting space of your opponent's main pawn, you win the game.
