Humor

Answer off-the-wall dilemmas while your besties try to guess your responses.
Left Right Dilemma is a cooperative party game for adults that will reveal your friends’ unspoken (and sometimes shameful) preferences.

How to play?

Read the card at the summit and choose one of the two options.
Continue to the card under your choice and answer a new dilemma.
End your descent in a cabin.
Do your friends know you well enough to figure out which cabin you reached?

I'm Right You're Wrong is a fun-first game that promotes mental wellness, themed around petty arguments. In fact, it was inspired by a real life office spat. Outwit and outlast your opponent(s), by holding onto your hand, and not breaking a rule.

Take turns, drawing a card and playing one from your hand. Each card is empowered with consequences. Some cards reduce your hand, some cards restrict your options. The twist is… attacking opponents screws you over, not them. It’s the only card game where playing your least worst option is your best. Play is similar to other casual games (hand management, elimination, take-that). No actual role-play or arguing involved.

Each player starts with 5 cards with powers and consequences. Each turn, draw and play one card from your hand. Many cards are self-punishing, so choose your least worst option to outlast your opponent.

You lose if: you run out of cards, you break a rule (forced or not), or you get caught bluffing.

The game ends when all but 1 player is eliminated.

Will the Merchants get their goods past the Sheriff?

The bustling market in Nottingham is filled with goods from all over the kingdom. Most of it is entirely legal, however, Prince John is looking to make sure no contraband gets sold. He’s tasked the Sheriff to inspect Merchant’s wares, looking for any illicit goods. The Sheriff’s shrewd, but not above taking a bribe to look the other way. Which Merchant will end up getting the best goods through and make the largest profits in the market stalls?

In Sheriff of Nottingham 2nd Edition, players take turns playing the Sheriff, looking for contraband goods, and the Merchants trying to stock their Stall with the best goods. The Sheriff can inspect any bag they want, but they must be careful, as they’ll have to pay a penalty if they find the Merchants were telling the truth. This new edition includes updated rules, as well as expansions such as the 6th Merchant, Black Market, and Sheriff’s Deputies.

The game box contains 110 Gold Coins, 216 Goods cards, 6 Deputy cards, 6 Black Market cards, 2 Deputy standees, 6 Merchant stands, 6 Merchant bags, a Sheriff standee, a Booty tile, and a rulebook

For generations, the rats in the old junkyard have been telling each other the great legend about a moon made out of cheese and they want nothing more than to reach this inexhaustible treasure. One day, the little rat children discovered a comic in the junkyard that described the first landing on the moon, and thus the plan was born: Build a rocket and take over the cheese moon!

Fortunately, the junkyard has everything the rats need to build their rocket, and the other animals are willing to support this daring venture — at least if they're well paid. Of course, all the rats work together to achieve this mighty goal. However, each rat family competes to build the most rocket parts and to train the most rattronauts so they can feast on as much of the lunar cheese as possible.

In First Rat, each player starts with two rats and may raise two more. On your turn, you either move one of your rats 1-5 spaces on the path or move 2-4 of your rats 1-3 spaces each as long as they end up on spaces of the same color. Your rats can never share the same space, and if you land in a space with another player's rat, you must pay them one cheese, borrowing cheese from the back as needed. After movement, you collect resources (cheese, tin cans, apple cores, baking soda, etc.) matching the color of the space you occupy or move your lightbulb along the light string, which will boost your income in future turns. (More lights in the junkyard makes it easier for you to find things!)

If you end movement near a store, you can spend resources to buy a backpack or bottle top — or you can steal an item instead, with the rat then returning to the start of the movement track. You can also spend resources to build rocket sections (and score points) or spend cheese in bulk as a donation (and score points).

When you pick up apple cores, you move around the rat burrow to pick up comics or stored food or raise one of your rats from the nursery. Alternatively, you automatically get a new rat when one of your rats reaches the launch pad and boards the spaceship. When a player places their fourth rat on the spaceship — or places their eighth scoring marker on the board — the game ends, and the player with the most points wins. In the event of a tie, the tied player with the most rattronauts in the rocket wins.

First Rat includes a solo mode as well as variable game set-ups described in the rulebook.

Rabble is a party game for two teams played across three rounds. Teams alternate 45-second turns and compete to correctly guess all of the words on their team’s Rabble Cards the fastest. Each team guesses the same cards each round but each round has restrictions on the clues that players can give teammates.

Round 1 - Words, sounds, and gestures are allowed but players can’t say the card, part of the card, or spell the card.

Round 2 - Only one word per card but players can’t say the card or part of the card.

Round 3 - No words or sounds, only gestures.

Challenge Cards place additional effects on players (and make them do hilarious things), increasing the difficulty of completing each round. The same Rabble Cards are used each round so players need to remember the words and clues from previous rounds.
