Your grandma loves cats - but she's adopted so many that she can't keep track of the mischievous furballs who refuse to settle down at bedtime.
Your mission? Help Grandma stack the kittens into the purrr-fect pyramid so they can finally get some shuteye.
Roll dice, assign results to the board and decide: push your luck or play it safe? In this wacky, family-friendly game, you'll need a combination of wit, strategy, and a little bit of feline furrrtune to claim victory.
The sushi production and distribution in the city of Mininogata is controlled by several feline clans. Leading those clans is the Kumichō, supreme leader of the syndicate, but he is now an old cat and soon will have to decide who will succeed him.
In Neko Syndicate you will lead one of those clans and you will prove the Kumichō who deserves to inherit his position, building an efficient chain of command and fulfilling the great amount of sushi demanded by the population. In addition, you will be rewarded if you are the fastest to achieve the missions by the Kumichō.
During the game you will build and walk down a card’s pyramidal structure which represents both a city district under your control and your chain of command. This pyramidal structure will be used as a board and action tree which will allow you to cook sushi and transport it into different delivery zones, trying to achieve the missions by the supreme leader. You will have 15 turns to obtain as many prestige points as possible to please the supreme leader Kumichō and, therefore, win the game.
Neko Syndicate is a "Thinky-filler" by Dani García, featuring an innovative tableau building mechanic where cards are both the actions and the goals to achieve: fast set-up, simultaneous play, low interaction and brain burner in a 30 minutes easy to play hard to master beautiful game.
While exploring a mysterious Egyptian pyramid, you discover a huge vault. There lie the Ancient Relics of Tutankhanine, the Cursed Pharaoh! Were the legends true?
Examining the symbols on the Pharaoh’s sarcophagus triggers a hidden mechanism. The ground shakes and heavy stone doors start to descend. You escape being sealed inside the vault by dashing further into the pyramid, but now you’re cut off from the exit. You’re trapped!
In the distance, you hear frightening growls, as if angry mummies are waking up to punish those who entered their tomb. It seems the legends are indeed true!
Your only way forward is the stone hallway leading off into the darkness.
Your objective is now clear:
Prevent the mummies from touching the Relics of the Pharaoh (they would gain immense power, threatening all mankind).
Activate the hidden mechanisms to wake the most powerful mummy in the pyramid, then defeat all the mummies to lift the curse once and for all!
You have 5 torches left - Run! Run! RUN!
Is that a light at the end of the… branch?
A curious cat prowls into the forest, lured by flickering lights of all colors dancing through the trees. What are they? Oh, the wisps from the old tales! Each one sparkles with charm and mischief, carrying a unique personality. Can you guide them just right and make your forest the brightest?
Welcome to Wispwood, a magical place populated by glowing wisps. On your turn, choose a wisp tile and a shape to place in your personal grid — your very own growing forest. Each wisp has desires about where it wants to shine, and even the magical trees have preferences! You'll aim to meet their expectations across three scoring rounds. Between rounds, the forest shifts — fading and expanding — yet the wisps you've already placed remain, shaping the possibilities ahead.
With each game, new goal cards redefine the wisps' whims, ensuring your forest grows in a unique way every time. Enter the forest and explore the magic of Wispwood!
Flow is a cooperative game where players work together to connect four animal spaces to the boat tile in the center of the board by drawing and playing tiles. Do you have what it takes to save the animals?
If players run out of tiles they and the animals have not been connected to the boat, they all lose.
The game uses a timer, and each time it runs out, players roll two dice that tell them where the giant wave strikes and washes away tiles already placed.
