Charterstone!

In Charterstone, a competitive legacy game scaled for 1-6 players, you construct buildings and inhabit a shared village. Building stickers are removed from cards and permanently added to your charter on the board, becoming action spaces for any player to use. Thus, a few available buildings soon grow into a bustling village with dozens of actions.

Your journey through Charterstone’s many secrets will last 12 games, but it doesn’t end there. Your completed village will be a one-of-a-kind, variable worker-placement game. Or you can purchase a completely optional recharge pack to play a second campaign.

 

Scythe: The Wind Gambit!

Take to the Skies

This expansion for the hit engine-building game Scythe includes two new modular expansions: airships and resolutions.

In the airship module, each player starts the game with a miniature airship of their faction's color, with its own set of abilities determined at the beginning of the game, on their home base. The resolution module adds resolution tiles which will impact the way the game ends, and the decisions you make during the game.

Smile!

Deep in the forest, in the dark of night, hungry creatures emerge in search of your juicy fireflies. They quickly gather around, waiting for what they crave. In Smile, a collection of cute little critters will surround you no matter what you do. It’s up to you to make sure that these creatures are worth the most points at the end of the game. Some creatures add to your score, but others reduce it.

Carefully bid your fireflies each round to get your hands on the creatures who give you the highest score and avoid getting stuck with those that provide negative effects. After the last round, your fireflies will be worth nearly nothing, so spend them wisely if you want to be smiling at the end of the game.

Fallout!

Fallout is a post-nuclear adventure board game for one to four players. Based on the hit video game series, each Fallout scenario is inspired by a familiar story from the franchise.

Survivors begin the game on the edge of an unexplored landscape, uncertain of what awaits them in this unfamiliar world. With just one objective to guide them from the very beginning, each player must explore the hidden map, fight ferocious enemies, and build the skills of their survivor as they attempt to complete challenging quests and balance feuding factions within the game.

As they advance their survivors' stories, players will come across new quests and individual targets, leading them to gain influence. Who comes out ahead will depend on how keenly and aggressively each player ventures through the game, however if a single faction is pushed to power too quickly, the wasteland will be taken for their own, and the survivors conquered along with it.

T.I.M.E. Stories: Estrella Drive!

The location of the anomaly appears to be a luxurious villa in the Californian hills. Science in the 20th century was incapable of correctly identifying time alterations, so the mansion is believed to be haunted by many natives of this era.

Take careful note of fissures in the time stream, but remember their true source lies in the damage being done to the Time Line, not in the supernatural.
