In Star Trek [Deck Building Game]: The Next Generation, players take on the role of Captain of a salvaged Starship. They will search for new allies such as Picard, Data, and other famous Characters. They will Explore space to complete Missions, Encounter Events, and meet Starships that could be friend or foe.

The game features three separate scenarios of play:

Explorations [Free For All]: Explore Space to complete Missions, Encounter Events, and Engage Starships.
Borg Invasion [Cooperative]: The Borg have come to Assimilate you and everything you know. Band together with your fellow Captains to defend your world and fend off the Borg.
Klingon Civil War [Teams]: A rift in power has been created in the Klingon Empire. Form an alliance, gather support, and defeat your enemies to obtain control of the Empire.

Scandaroon is an engaging and quizzical card game for 3 or 4 players played over four rounds. Players are dealt a hand of cards each round, with which they will compete to create their own high scoring row, while seeking to minimize their opponents’ scores.

Players are awarded victory points for specific achievements during the game, such as getting the highest score in a single round, and victory points may change as the game develops.

Scandaroon has a scoreboard, a set of wooden markers for each player and a pack of special cards, each of which has a scoring value, a suit, and an effect or ability that will modify the scoring values of other cards.

Unlike many of the other Jax, Ltd. games, Takeaway doesn't seem to have previously existed as public domain.

Luck seems to play a heavy part in this game, advertised as "strategic": This is a set collection game, where you collect cards by making plays of cards between your cards and your opponents. At least, that seems to be how the game works: the instructions are well known to be less than specific.

The game seems to be well regarded by younger players, perhaps because they are not as concerned with playing by the "official" rules.

Verbiage from Jax, Ltd:
Take all you can get...when you play this unique, new family card game! Collect as many cards as you can by making plays between your cards and your opponent's cards. But BEWARE....Your opponents might take them all away! The player with the most cards at the end of the game wins!! It's challenging and fun. When you change comes, take all you can get and play Takeaway!

This multiplayer time-travel card game has players assign inventions to different time periods and then score points for appropriate combos and matching the correct eras for those inventions. The first pair of decks are Stone Age and Future Tech, and contain over 120 unique pieces of original art.

First part of the Timestreams series.

The kingdom of Legitimant is in turmoil. The old king has died, leaving no legitimate heir... He has, however, left several illegitimate ones.

Since you were an infant, your mother has told you of the royal blood that runs in your veins. Now the time has come for you and your trusty animal sidekick to set out on an epic quest to fulfil your destiny and claim the throne that is your birthright.

Whether you choose to follow a path of righteousness or use every dirty trick in the book, you’ll need nerve, cunning and just a little luck as you assemble an assortment of strange creatures and magical objects to out-manouver and overpower your rivals and prove that you are, indeed, the one true heir of Legitimacy!
