As a prominent architect, you have been tasked with the planning and building of the colosseum according to the specifications set forth by the Consul. Manage your resources well, and you may be named the Master Architect! This new game from famed designer Klaus-Jurgen Wrede includes a special insert where the walls of the colosseum are erected as the game is played. 2–4 Players 30 Min Age: 10+

Alchimia — a land where the works of a single grand alchemist has caused alchemy to develop more quickly than other technology. The everyday lives of the people rely on the alchemy factories that this first pioneer built. In Ars Alchimia, you work at one of these factories. As an overseer belonging to the Academy, you take orders from the people, gather resources, and transmute them — but you need to be more efficient than your competition. The game lasts four rounds, with each round representing a year. Each round, players take turns placing one or more of their workers on one action they want to do: gather resources, take up an order, employ an assistant, or transmute at the alchemy forges. The trick is that the more workers on one spot, the less effective an action becomes; if you want to place workers on a spot where there are already some, you'll have to exceed the number of workers already there. 3–4 Players 100 Min Age: 10+

At the Gates of Loyang is a trading game in which you are able to produce goods by planting them and later selling them to customers. You can use the abilities of some helpers to increase your income or production. Fields, customers, helpers, and miscellaneous objects are represented by cards. Each player receives two of these cards per round distributed by a bidding/drawing mechanism in which you end up with one of the cards you draw and one of the cards of a public offer filled by all players. Additionally, to these cards you always receive one field for free each round. Placing one good on a field fills the complete field with goods of this type. Each round, one unit per field is harvested. After planting, harvesting, and distributing cards, each player can use as many actions as he wants, only limited by the number of his cards or the number of goods he owns. At the end of his turn, he can invest the earned money on a scoring track, where early money is worth more than late money. The game ends after a certain number of rounds, and the player who is first on the scoring track wins. 1–4 Players 60–120 Min Playing Time Age: 10+

You are an adventurous archaeologist, digging into the earth for artifacts, treasure, and other goodies. Every day requires a new plan to be efficient, so you and the other archaeologists on the site will be competing to see whose is the most efficient! Each turn in Big Dig, you draft a card from the center that shows you the shape in which you must dig (by crossing out squares on your personal dry-erase board). You must touch either the top of the digging area or a previously dug area, and you can't go through certain areas (though you may forgo regular digs to blow up stones that are in your way). When the cards in the center run out, everyone returns their cards to the center and flips them over so that different digging shapes are now available. Every game, three random goals are dealt out, and the first person to accomplish all of them wins! There are a variety of goals that can be in play, the player boards are double-sided (everyone plays with the same side in any given game), and which side of the digging cards is face-up to start is different, so every play is different! 2–4 Players 5–15 Min Age: 8+

Welcome to the Bomb Squad! You and your teammates must program a robot to navigate a building, rescue hostages, and defuse bombs in real time... but with incomplete information, you’ll have to rely on your partners to figure out which commands to play. The game is turn-based and cooperative, but a timer counts down in real time... every 10 minutes a bomb will explode unless you defuse it first! The clock is ticking... act fast! Bomb Squad is a cooperative game in which 2-6 players are members of a team operating a disposal robot with the mission to disarm bombs and save hostages. The players work together, racing against the clock to provide the appropriate instructions for the robot to achieve their mission objectives. Bomb Squad features: * Real-time play: Players each take a turn in clockwise order and are free to take as long as they want on their turn. However, there is a timer counting down in real time until the bombs will detonate, so players will want to be as efficient as possible. * Hidden Card Information: Players hold their cards so that the fronts are facing the other players, which requires that players give each other Intel to figure out which cards they have in hand. * Limited Communication: While players have their cards up and visible to each other, players are allowed to communicate only via the Intel they give each other, which provides hints about the cards they have in their hands. Table talk about which cards are needed, or where the robot should go, gives implied hints about which cards to play and is prohibited. Contents: • 1 Robot Control Frame • 6 Double-sided Floor Tiles • 1 Rule Book • 1 Mission Book • 54 Instruction Cards • 15 Role Cards • 2 Battery Markers • 4 Robot Tiles • Hostage, Door, Bomb, and Obstacle Tiles • Downloadable Timer Companion App / MP3 2-6 Players 13+ Years 10-30 Mins

The red wire... or the green one? As trainees at the Bomb Squad Academy, ONE of you is going to get it wrong. Graduate at the head of your class by decisive yet prudent action in this quick push-your-luck card game for 2 to 5 players. his is the final field exam of your bomb disposal training course. The instructor has rigged three training bombs for you and your team to defuse, but little do you know that there is no way to actually defuse them! The bombs will explode eventually, and if you want to graduate at the top of the class then you'll want to cut high-value wires without triggering the explosives! Grab your wire cutters and steady that shaky hand, because it's going to be an explosive night! In Bomb Squad Academy there are four decks of cards representing the four wires of the bomb, and a trigger track next to each deck. Every round, each player secretly decides (then simultaneously reveals) the wire that they will cut this round (or perhaps they'll chicken out, or even call "Wait!" preventing a wire from being cut). After actions are revealed, the chosen wires are "cut" by flipping cards from those decks. When a card is flipped, its value dictates how far the trigger moves down the trigger track and how many points are earned; cutting wires alone is worth a lot more than cutting the same wire as other players. Push the triggers too far and the bomb will explode! Whoever causes the bomb to explode loses points. Players earn useful Tools during the game that they can use to break the rules. Get through three grueling bombs with the cleverest cuts to finish your final exam with the most points! Contents: • 48 Wire Cards • 30 Action Cards • 20 Tools Cards • 4 Trigger Tracks • 12 Trigger Tiles • 2 Pressure Plates • 4 Triggers • 46 Point Discs 2-5 Players 10+ Years 20-40 Mins

Fight, erect buildings, and earn prestige for your order before King Philip IV calls for your head! In the year 1119 AD, the Crusading Orders were formed to protect the thousands of pilgrims who were travelling to Jerusalem. The knights were closely tied to the Crusades, and they were considered to be some of most highly skilled fighting units of that time. The orders grew in wealth and power for almost 200 years until King Phillip IV of France had them persecuted and arrested for reasons that are discussed by historians to this day. Crusaders: Thy Will Be Done, a new game from designer Seth Jaffee (Eminent Domain, Terra Prime), will put players in the role as the leader of a Crusading Order. Using an innovative Mancala/Rondel mechanism, they will move their knights through Europe and the Middle East. They will battle with enemies, construct buildings, and train troops - all the while trying to be the order that has gained the most influence before the game comes to a close.

In the year 2213, the world order came to an abrupt end over a 19-day war. The bombs started falling on the 3rd day, and by the 19th ninety-nine percent of earth`s population was dead - or would soon be. Wars and conflicts had raged for decades prior - as populations rose up, the global government quelled the growing resistance and maintained the status quo. But, the conflicts escalated rapidly, and the world leaders became anxious and wary. No one knows who pressed the button first, and in the harsh realities of the world that followed, no one cared. What mattered was surviving and, if possible, rebuilding. Thrive - and survive - in the wake of the apocalypse in Downfall. 3–6 Players 90–150 Min Age: 14+

As new islands appear out of the mist, send your voyagers in search of wealth and adventure! In Embark, you will load various boats heading to these new, uninhabited islands in order to explore, colonize, and mine their riches. Only fully-loaded boats will launch, so assign your voyagers carefully. Explorers will scout out the islands, unlocking their mysteries. Miners will collect ore, and colonists will cultivate farms and reap the benefits that the islands have to offer. Watch out for your opponents’ warriors, who can replace your voyagers and take over their jobs! Embark is a game for 2-5 players, designed by Philip duBarry, and developed by Seth Jaffee. It lasts about 15 minutes per player, and could be described as a light-to-medium weight game. In Embark, you and your friends simultaneously assign your voyagers to boats, then take turns assigning them jobs by placing them into specific berths in the boats. When a boat is full, it launches, carrying your voyagers to one of the islands in play, where your voyagers will start to perform the jobs to which they were assigned: * Explorers explore the island, scoring 1 point per round, and increasing an exploration bonus for the island. * Miners collect ore, which will score an end game bonus. * Colonists build farms worth a chunk of points. Having a majority of colonists also wins a player the exploration bonus for the island. * Captains can do any of the three jobs above. * Warriors must displace another voyager and take over their job, sending the displaced voyager back to the owner's pub to be reassigned next round. After six rounds of assigning voyagers and launching boats, the game ends, bonuses are tallied, and the player with the most points wins! 2–5 Players 30–60 Min Age: 14+

Every turn in Ghosts of the Moor, you move one of your explorer pawns forward. If you leave a space containing a tile and no other explorer, you must pick up that tile which is good if it`s a treasure and not good if it`s a ghost. If you leave a space that contains no tile, you must discard a tile instead. Once all explorers have escaped the swamp, players score points for collecting sets of treasure and for reaching the end early. Players lose points for ghosts they have picked up along the way.

In Gold West, players compete as prospectors building their mining empires while vying over the precious metals of the frontier. In a delicate balance of resource management and area control, players must plan their building strategies while carefully managing their supply tracks to refine the right resources at the most opportune times. Stay a step ahead of the competition and you could lead the West into the Golden Age. The goal of Gold West is to accumulate the most victory points through clever management of your growing mining empire. There are five resources in the game: the metals Copper, Silver, and Gold are used to acquire victory points in a variety of ways, while Timber and Stone are building materials used to build camps and settlements on the board to collect more resources and influence the landscape. Each hex contains either two or three resources. Gold generally earns players the most points, with silver and copper yielding slightly less. In addition, each terrain type scores points for the player with the most influence therein at the end of the game. Copper terrains are the most valuable, with Silver, Gold, and Forest Terrains earning slightly fewer points. When gaining new metals and materials, players place them in their "supply track", a mancala-style track in which you will manage your resources. You get points to further back in the track you place them, as this creates a more refined product, but it will take longer to get these resources to the front of the supply track where they can be used. Shipping, investments, and Boomtown offices often reward players who fulfill them earlier, so it's a careful balance of risk and reward.

London: The biggest, most important and richest city in England in the late medieval and early modern periods. The Guilds played a major role in the lives of London`s citizens, controlling the way in which trade, manufacturing, and business was conducted in the city. The members of the Guilds were rich men, who were appointed to the most influential positions in the community and wielded immense civic power. The chief representative of the Guilds became the Lord Mayor of London, and the leading delegates of the Guilds became his Aldermen. The Guilds ran the city and controlled its commerce - each had its own Hall and its own Coat of Arms. In Guilds of London, players endeavor to place their liverymen in strategic Guilds, building their power base to achieve the status of Master in many of them. 1–4 Players 45 Min Age: 10+
