Medieval

As the captain of a fleet during the Age of Discovery, you have been chosen by your king to explore uncharted lands and map the edges of the known world. Each game presents a new challenge where you’ll need to guide your crew with wisdom and resolve, all in service of your kingdom’s glory. Fierce winds and sudden storms will test your leadership, while the cards in your hand will help you maintain morale and steer your crew across the seas.
Though hardships may wear you down, they also teach you valuable skills to overcome the trials ahead. Victory lies in reaching your destination. But beware! Failure awaits if morale crumbles or your crew turns against you.

Adamastor is a hand and tableau management game built around multi-use cards, with an optional story-driven campaign mode. Events trigger based on icon combinations, bringing harsh challenges—and occasional rewards. As you play, trauma cards accumulate, abstracting the crew’s growing despair and escalating the difficulty. Whether in single sessions or the linked campaign, every voyage tests your resilience in this brutal age of sail.

Welcome to the Dungeon!

Two players go Head-to-Head controlling opposing sides in a game of deduction and deceit. One player controls a party of four heroes adventuring into a dungeon for treasure. The other is the Dungeon Lord who reigns over the dungeon's traps, treasures, and monsters. The heroes' party consists of a Warrior, a Cleric, a Rogue, and a Wizard, who must work together, using each of their special abilities to overcome the puzzles presented by the scheming Dungeon Lord.

In Quacks, which was first released as The Quacks of Quedlinburg, players are charlatans — or quack doctors — each making their own secret brew by adding ingredients one at a time. Take care with what you add, though, for a pinch too much of this or that will spoil the whole mixture!

Each player has their own bag of ingredient chips. During each round, they simultaneously draw chips from their bags and add them to their pots. The higher the face value of the drawn chip, the further it is placed in the pot's swirling pattern, increasing how much the potion will be worth. Push your luck as far as you can, but if you add too many cherry bombs, your pot will explode!

At the end of each round, players gain victory points and coins to spend on new ingredients, depending on how well they managed to fill up their pots. But players whose pots have exploded must choose points or coins — not both! The player with the most victory points at the end of nine rounds wins the game.
