Hercules and the 12 Labors

Hercules and the 12 Labors is an immersive solo card and dice game where players embody the legendary hero Hercules, striving to complete the 12 Labors and ascend to godhood.

Engage in epic battles as you roll and allocate dice to unleash powerful abilities against fearsome foes, including the multi-headed Lernean Hydra, the flesh-eating Stymphalian Birds, and the formidable three-headed Cerberus. Each triumph earns you mighty rewards like the Impenetrable Hide or Athena’s Instrument, granting the strength needed to face the ever greater trials ahead.

Your journey will take you to the ends of the earth, from stealing the Golden Apples of the Hesperides to claiming the belt of Hippolyta from the Queen of the Amazons. Along the way, mood cards reveal the memories and emotions that haunt your past, testing your resilience or rewarding your fortitude.

Only by defeating each Labor and accumulating divinity can you unlock the gates of Olympus, securing your place among the gods and etching your name into legend! Are you ready to face the ultimate challenge and forge your destiny?

Catan: On the Road

CATAN: On the Road builds on well-known CATAN mechanics with a fresh variation. Gameplay is driven by a deck of 120 cards. Players gather resources by drawing cards, construct developments from a common set of available choices, and negotiate trades either with the bank or with fellow players. Trading plays an even larger role in this version: any player who trades while it is not their turn is rewarded with an extra resource card.

How to Play:

- Collect and trade for the resource cards you need to build.
- Expand your region, recruit knights, and upgrade your settlements for victory points.
- Be the first player to reach 7 victory points to win the game.

No Thanks!

The rules are simple. Each turn, players have two options:
play one of their chips to avoid picking up the current face-up card
pick up the face-up card (along with any chips that have already been played on that card) and turn over the next card
However, the choices aren't so easy as players compete to have the lowest score at the end of the game. The deck of cards is numbered from 3 to 35, with each card counting for a number of points equal to its face value. Runs of two or more cards only count as the lowest value in the run - but nine cards are removed from the deck before starting, so be careful looking for connectors. Each chip is worth -1 point, but they can be even more valuable by allowing you to avoid drawing that unwanted card.

The first versions of the game supported up to five players, but the German 2011 edition supports up to seven (simply by increasing the number of chips).

This game was originally published in Germany in 2004 by Amigo as Geschenkt ...ist noch zu teuer!, meaning Even given as a gift, it is still too expensive!. Amigo's 2006 international edition, titled No Merci! (a delightful multi-lingual pun), had rules in several languages, including English. The game has subsequently been released in other countries under an assortment of names. The German 2024 edition includes additional cards to allow for play with variant rules.

Dixit: Kids

In the cooperative children's game Dixit Kids, you work together to invite as many guests as possible to the Swift Rabbit's big birthday party! In each round, one of you takes on the role of the Swift Rabbit. They visit a rabbit burrow and choose one of the rabbits to be their birthday guest. The Swift Rabbit then selects a card from their hand that matches the guest's mood: this card is the invitation.

All the other players are courier rabbits. They have to deliver the invitation to the rabbit the Swift Rabbit didn't choose. Then they have to find the invitation so that as many guests as possible can make it to the party in time. If enough guests arrive before the week is over, you win the game together.

Dixit Kids perfectly translates the gameplay of its big brother into a child-friendly version. The 84 new cards, specially illustrated for children, are compatible with all other games in the Dixit universe.

A child-friendly adaptation of the classic game Dixit.

Cooperative game: Everyone works together to interpret the rabbits' moods.

Beautifully illustrated cards, as always.

Picture cards are also compatible with all other games in the Dixit universe.

Tango

It takes two to tango, but only one dancer will stand tall in this trick-taking game for two players! In Tango, players play cards (both from their hand and from their face-up display), in order to perform the best possible dance steps.
Plan ahead as best you can, but remember your opponent knows some of the steps you will take! Will you be named lord or lady of the dance?
