Multiple players may survive the fight, but only one may claim the glory of purifying Sanctum.

Gameplay is brisk, with the possibility for overlapping turns. The four characters all have unique skill sets, and you’ll level up fast, giving you frequent opportunities to choose new skills. Every decision counts.

Though the game is competitive, the goal is to destroy the Demon Lord, not each other. So player interaction is a race rather than a fight: Who’s furthest along the board? Who will get to choose first when an equipment draft gets triggered? Who will gain the benefit of reaching the Demon Lord first? Who will get to that group of blue demons everyone wants? Who will unlock that achievement and claim the bonus?

On your turn, you choose one action:

1) Move: Advance along the path toward the Demon Lord, and engage some demon minions to fight later.
2) Fight: Fight all the demon minions you’ve engaged. If you kill any demons, upgrade Skills and acquire Items.
3) Rest: Equip some of the loot you’ve won, recharge the resources you use to fight, and buy potions with extra Items you don’t need.

The choices you’ll be balancing and weighing against each other as you go include:

– What demons should you fight? Demons come in three colors: Blue, red, and green. The color of the demon determines which of your character’s Skills you’ll be able to choose to upgrade if you win the fight. Plus, each Demon drops a specific piece of gear when you beat it. What kind of gear do you need — a chest plate? Footgear? A weapon? Finally, since killing demons requires you to roll dice to match the die face showing on the demon’s card, which demons can you kill based on your current gear and skill setup?

– Which Skills should you unlock? Each character has 9 skills. Which ones you choose to gain in a given game drastically changes how the character functions.

– What gear should you equip? Some gear helps you block damage. Some helps you modify dice rolls. The better the gear, the harder it is to equip.

– When should you Move, Fight, and Rest? You’ll want to Move and Fight as many times as possible between Rests, but wait too long to Rest and you may take more damage than you can afford. Rest too often, though, and you’ll fall behind the other players and miss out on some kills.

– Should you do what is most optimal for your character at any given moment, or should you sometimes put that aside in order to claim competitive achievements before other players can?

The final battle with the Demon Lord is tough. Even surviving can feel rewarding. But only the player with the most health at the end of the boss fight can truly claim the glory of his defeat!

Don’t Go In There is a fast, easy-to-learn game that uses push your luck “set destruction.” Decide how risky to play as you venture deep into the haunted house. Do you take first choice of the items and risk attracting haunts, or play it safe? Collect the right items and you can dispel some of your curses.

On your turn, choose a part of the haunted house to explore by placing a meeple in one of the 3 rooms. Each room has 5 placement spaces. The deeper you go into a room the more likely you are to get the cursed item you desire, but be careful! The further you go, the more ghosts will haunt you.

When 3 meeples have been placed into a room, the ghost dice are rolled. Depending on the result the placement of the meeples players will gain ghosts tokens. Next players will take cards from the room, depending on their meeple’s position.

At the end of the game. The player with the most ghost tokens is haunted! They will gain curses equal to the number of ghosts they have collected. Players will then add up the curses from their ghosts and their item cards.

The player with the fewest curses wins!

Cannibal World is an expandable dueling card game where you fight as one of four factions in a post-apocalyptic world. You will be able to customize your faction’s deck as you see fit.

The gameplay revolves around strategic deck management, resource allocation, and tactical combat. Players alternate turns, drawing cards from their Main or Reinforcement Decks, and use meat counters to perform various actions, such as summoning creatures, initiating combat, or activating abilities.

Combat is central to gameplay, where players use creatures to attack their opponent’s creatures or attempt to ransack their opponent’s habitat. Combat is resolved through damage mechanics, with both melee and ranged attacks.

The gameplay’s focus on tactical decisions, resource management, and faction-specific abilities creates a highly strategic and engaging experience.

Victory is achieved through two main conditions: eliminating all of the opponent’s creatures (from play, hand, and deck), or ransacking their habitat three times.

In TrollFest, each player manages a rock band in a fantasy universe, recruits the most talented and charismatic musicians, holds concerts in the main city, hires dragons for transport and light shows, and ends up trying to give the best act at the festival.

After an initial card draft of band members and action cards, players take turns moving around the map, performing shows and improving their band composition to score points. Once one player has completed their tour (by performing in a certain number of cities), the game ends and players score additional points based on their final band configuration.

TrollFest is a light, fun and thematic 3 to 6 player boardgame for friends and family.
