Card Game

"The Perfect Heist" is a cooperative/competitive board game based on the heist movie genre. It is designed to capture the excitement of pulling together a handpicked crew of professionals and loose cannons to pull off epic heists. To win, you must convince your friends — those gunmen, con men, getaway drivers, and grizzled vets who are "getting too old for this" — to join your crew and take on increasingly more difficult jobs ranging from boosting cars to nicking top secret documents and biological weapons.

But even as you need their expertise to chase the big scores and make a name for yourself, don't think for a second they're doing you any favors. They are trying to win, too. And they may double-cross you any chance they get to steal the loot for themselves and leave you for dead.

Ultimately, the player with the most notoriety wins. You accrue notoriety points from heists, by successfully completing hidden agendas, and more. But, you need to hustle for it. A clever player could win by only pulling off 2 jobs, so long as they hustled other players for a better cut of each job's notoriety. Likewise, a player could pull off 15 jobs and yet still lose if they made bad deals with other players.

All of the eligible young men (and many of the not-so-young) seek to woo the princess of Tempest. Unfortunately, she has locked herself in the palace, and you must rely on others to take your romantic letters to her. Will yours reach her first?

Love Letter is a game of risk, deduction, and luck for 2–4 players. Your goal is to get your love letter into Princess Annette's hands while deflecting the letters from competing suitors. From a deck with only sixteen cards, each player starts with only one card in hand; one card is removed from play. On a turn, you draw one card, and play one card, trying to expose others and knock them from the game. Powerful cards lead to early gains, but make you a target. Rely on weaker cards for too long, however, and your letter may be tossed in the fire!

In Seven Dragons, players start with a secret goal color from the seven colored dragons and a hand of three cards. The Silver Dragon is laid on the table as the starting card; at this stage it is a wild card. The playing cards feature domino-like colored panels in the same manner as Aquarius, an earlier game design from Andy Looney.

On a player's turn, she draws one card and plays one from her hand. Cards are laid so as to connect matching colored panels. The deck also includes Action Cards such as Move a Card, Zap a Card, Trade Hands, etc. The used Action Cards form a discard pile, and the top card of this pile dictates the color of the starting Silver Dragon; once the discard pile has started, the Silver Dragon is no longer wild.

The first player to create a connected territory of seven panels matching her dragon color wins.
