The construction of St. Basil's Cathedral is progressing steadily. The time has come to seek out the best specialists from each guild and apply their skills and knowledge to turn this monument into something that will amaze even the Tsar. It is necessary to send contractors to the farthest corners of Russia to stand out from the competition and achieve victory. Contractors is the first expansion of The Red Cathedral, the hit game from Shei Santos and Isra Cendrero in which players build Moscow's St. Basil's Cathedral and compete to make the most memorable contribution and win the Tsar's favor. The expansion is also illustrated by Pedro Soto and Chema Román, two artists inspired by the work of Ivan Bilbin, the Russian artist known for his majestic representation of Slavic folklore in his works. The Red Cathedral stands out among recent games for its original rondel mechanism and has captured the hearts of thousands of players around the world. The expansion comes in a box with almost as much content as the original game and takes the experience to another dimension. In Contractors we find 10 new guilds that can be combined with those from the base game, 6 additional blueprint cards and a new card for solo mode. Many of these new guilds use the Contractors module, which includes a new board with a map of Russia. You will send the contractors throughout Russia to recruit the talent of the country's best specialists and craftsmen to help build the cathedral. As in the original game, each of these guilds contain 3 different maps, one of which can be included in the game per guild, meaning Contractors offers 30 new ways to play The Red Cathedral. Some other highlights include a black die that can be used in addition to the 5 existing dice to obtain resources, diamonds that serve as a wild-card form of resource, and the contractors, which are Kozak meeples that add an element of worker placement to the add game.

Mycelia is a dynamic game of tactics that revolves around the space and resources to create your own mushroom kingdom.

The board consists of triangular tiles that represent different environments and nutrients that the mushrooms need to grow. These tiles can be added to the board by the players, so that the board is constantly growing and evolving. Mycelia combines beautiful and accurate botanical illustrations of more than 69 mushrooms found in the wild.

“Take a Seat” introduces an innovative mechanic called Share & Write, where the randomness is created through player interaction (rather than with a die or a card).

In a Grove is a bluffing and deduction game where the player who makes too many false accusations loses the game. The game is played in rounds. Each round, each player receives one of eight silhouettes (numbered 2-8 with one empty), while three silhouettes are placed as suspects in the center of the table and the last silhouette is designated as the victim. You must determine which suspect is the guilty one, either to accuse him or to lure other players into accusing someone who is innocent! All players secretly look at their silhouettes, then pass them to the right and look at the new silhouette they received. The first player of the round secretly looks at two of the three suspects and, if desired, exchanges the victim for one of these suspects. This player then places a colored accusation marker under one of the suspects. The next player looks at the two suspects not marked with an accusation marker, then places their own colored accusation marker, covering any markers already under that suspect. This continues until all four players have placed an accusation marker, with each player not allowed to look at the suspect just accused. The round ends and players reveal the suspects. Who is to blame? The suspect with the highest number - unless the #5 is among the suspects, in which case the suspect with the lowest number is guilty. (The suspect without a number is always innocent.) Anyone who accused the correct suspect gets their charge marker back. Any misplaced markers are turned over with the colored side down and given to the player holding the top marker of the pile. At the end of a turn, if a player has eight or more markers - or has no markers - the game ends and that player loses.

"A party game for terrible people." The game begins with a judge, known as the "Card Czaar", who chooses a black question or fill-in card from the top of the deck and shows it to all players. Each player has a hand of ten white answer cards at the start of each round and deals one card (sometimes two) face down to the Card Czar, representing their answer to the question on the card. The Card Czaar determines which answer card(s) are the funniest in the context of the question or fill-in card. The player who submitted the chosen card(s) is given the Question Card to represent an "Awesome Point", and then the player to the left of the new Card Czaar becomes the new Czaar for the next round. The game continues until the players decide to stop, at which point the player with the most Awesome Points is the winner. So far it sounds like the popular and fairly harmless game "Apples to Apples". Although the games are similar, the humor required is very different. The game encourages players to joke about virtually any uncomfortable or taboo topic, including race, religion, gender, poverty, torture, alcoholism, drugs, sex (yes, really), abortion, child abuse, celebrities, and those everyday little annoyances like “expecting a burp and vomiting on the floor.” Plus, there are a few extra rules. First, some question cards are "Pick 2" or cards, where each participant must submit two cards in order to complete their answer. Secondly, there is also a gambling component. If a question is played that a player thinks has two possible winning answers, he can wager an Awesome Point to play a single second answer. If the betting player wins, he keeps the point wagered, but if he loses, the player who contributed the winning answer takes both points.

Bruxelles 1893 is a worker placement game with elements of bidding and majority control. Each player is an architect at the end of the 19th century and tries, through various actions, to realize an architectural work in the Art Nouveau style. The most successful building earns the most points. Each player can also create works of art to increase their score. The action board is modular, with not every player having access to every action every turn. Some actions cost money - obtaining high-quality materials, building a level of your personal home, finding a protector, creating a work of art, selling that work of art for money and prestige - while other actions are free but potentially lead to the loss of one of your workers; these last actions include acquiring low-quality materials, activating your patrons, visiting the fair and performing one of the actions with a cost. Once everyone has decided to take no further actions, the round ends and players have an art exhibition in which they can sell works. Players then receive prestige points or bonus cards based on the symbols next to which they have placed their workers on the action board. After five rounds, the game ends and players score bonus points based on their architect level, their bonus cards, how well they completed their work and the money they have with them.
