All Rise is a courtroom based party game where players take on the roles of two Attorneys, a Judge, and multiple Jury Members and Surprise Witnesses.

The Evidence, Witnesses, and Court Cases used each game are dealt out of decks of cards, asking Attorneys to adapt and craft stories around the supplied elements in order to win over the Judge and Jury.

To start, Attorneys will draw Evidence Cards, Jury Members will draw Surprise Witness cards, and the Judge will draw Case Cards. The game is then played in five rounds over which the two Attorneys debate and argue the case chosen by the Judge by playing pieces of Evidence from their hand and calling Witnesses to the testify. Each piece of Evidence and each Surprise Witness is determined by a card, but it is up to the individual players to decide how they fit into the narrative by continuing to tell a story around the card being played.

Jury members will align themselves with one of the attorneys, and, at the end of the 5th round, the Judge will call for a vote. The winning side is determined by the Judge and Jury.

BUILD A CITY.

MAKE A FORTUNE.

In Magnate: The First City you're a tycoon trying to make as much money as you can in a citywide property boom by building an empire of realistic 3D buildings.

But beware...the boom will eventually go bust in a game-ending market crash! 

A collection of old fairy tales has been torn apart. Pages from different stories are all mixed together and strewn about. Can you find the connections between the scattered characters to put their stories back together? Reunite the characters in clever ways to win the game!

Wonder Tales is a quick tile-laying set-collection micro-game for two players.

Each of the 17 game cards is double sided, with the same fairy tale character on both sides, but with different colored highlights.

Players take turns placing cards on a shared tableau with their color showing. Once the tableau is full, scores are tallied depending on which combinations of characters and/or colors lie adjacent to each player's cards.

A game consists of 2-3 rounds, with the tableau shape changing each round.

Grail Cup is made by the renowned Game Designer Bruno Faidutti and illustrated by John Kovalic himself.

In the game, you will try to reach the castle first, trapping your enemies along the way, and even influencing a mighty Dragon so it can keep your opponents away. A clever hidden role selection-drafting system, reminiscing of Citadels' will allow you to bluff your way through Victory. A light and fun race game played in no more than 30mn.

During each turn, you select a role which will define who you are playing and which action you'll take. Turn order is defined by the role you selected, and acting first or last can have tremendous consequences.

It is the late 1960s, and a new generation of young people cherish freedom, friendship, and love by creating gatherings where everyone can come together in peace and enjoy the ultimate life experience — music festivals! Everyone wants to see The Cascadians, Tikki Tooraid, and Great Western Cowboys this summer, but which festival will they play?

In Come Together, you organize your own festival, using your volunteers to attract an audience and the hottest artists, build stages and camps, and gain publicity to make your festival the best of all time!

Come Together is a worker placement game, but with a special twist: When you place workers, you do not immediately gain the card you just claimed. You must wait until a player activates that location (which activates it for all players on that location). Players are constantly facing important dilemmas: One dilemma is whether to claim a card or activate a location. Timing of the activation can be crucial. Another dilemma is whether to claim the card you really want or claim a less attractive card in order gain more publicity by joining players on another location.

The game comes with 35 uniquely illustrated star artist cards, cards with special powers (on the backs of the starting stage cards), 146 more cards, double-sided player boards with asymmetric powers on their backs, 90 printed meeples, 60 printed worker tokens, 18 printed flower power tokens, and much more.

Like all games in the Chilifox Games's catalog, the game works well with up to six players (with little downtime).

Aliens: Another Glorious Day in the Corps! is a co‑operative survival board game in which you and your team of specialist Colonial Marines will gear up with serious firepower and head into Hadley's Hope to find survivors and answers. But you're not alone. To survive, you'll need to work together, keep your cool, and stay frosty to fight off relentless Xenomorph ambushes and get out of there alive.

Players can play up to six different missions, taking them into different areas from the Hadley’s Hope terraforming facility to the deep, dark recesses of an xenomorph nest. Aliens also offers an exciting campaign mode to play four of the missions linked together, so players will need to fight relentless xenomorph attacks and keep each other alive all the way to the end of the campaign. The remaining two missions are purely about survival, it’s kill or be killed. The players are dropped into the game with nothing more than a pistol. They will need to scavenge weapons and gear while hordes of Xenomorph aliens are trying to get at them. How long can you survive against the odds?

In Power Plants, you are growing a shared garden of magical plants with your rivals. You will add patches to the garden, choosing between the awesome Sprout powers and Grow powers. Tend the garden, gather magical Gems, and deploy your team of loyal Sprites to control the most valuable fields!

You are an interplanetary trader, flying a second-hand ship, trying to make some cash. A wealthy merchant offered you a lucrative deal. Prove yourself by getting some rare crystals and she'll put you in charge of her trading fleet — one of the biggest in the quadrant. You'll need to get them before your enemy gets them first. What are you waiting for? Get shipping!

SpaceShipped — A solo space trading game of buying and selling resources, upgrading your ship, crew, and equipment, dealing with pirates, and making deals. A card game with over 30 random events, 4 types of ship, 4 sets of crew members, and 8 different pieces of equipment to install, all using only 18 cards packed neatly in a little wallet.

Your goal: Make enough money through your buying and selling of resources to be able to afford two very expensive exotic stones (three, if you're really daring). At the same time you're trying to do it, pirates are working hard to collect them as well. If they get to them first, or if your ship takes enough damage, you lose.

As if the pressure from the pirates wasn't enough, on each turn, you'll pilot your ship to different planets, experiencing random encounters, solar winds, and violent attacks. Spend too much time repairing your ship and the pirates will steal the crystals first, but don't repair your ship enough and it will likely be destroyed by these attacks. Hire the right crew, buy the right ship, fit your ship with the right equipment, and you just might make it out of the galaxy alive.

Government officials are plotting to undermine democracy! They need to exchange documents and money in secret, but a pair of investigative journalists are getting suspicious of their activities. Will the intrepid reporters be able to expose the corruption before it's too late?

Two corrupt politicians need to exchange messages and dirty money while two investigators try to intercept their actions and publish them in the international media.

Winner of Button Shy's 18 identical cards challenge, Interceptor is a game for 4 people in pairs that will sit facing your partner.

The cards have two sides: money or message. Players must place one of their 5 cards with one side forward and make a pre-arranged secret code for their partner to place the same side forward. Corruptors should try to avoid investigations by placing the opposite side that their opponents put, while investigators want to put on the same side as their opponents.

After 4 cards on the table, they are all revealed and losers lose their cards. Whoever runs out of cards loses the game.

But there is one more thing. If you discover your opponent's code, you can say "Interceptor!" and make a guess. If you're wrong, you lose a card, if you get it right, you win the game instantly.

It is a fast and very fun game, great for playing several games in a row.

Winner of Button Shy's 18 Card Challenge: Design a game with 18 identical cards.

In the first course, it was definitely in the soup. After that, it's not as clear. Perhaps in the Béarnaise sauce?

Regardles, two things are abundantly clear: someone is poisoning the guests at this party, and the wine that is being poured may be the last you ever taste.

In Vino Morte is a tiny little bluffing/deduction game.

In the game, the dealer will choose and distribute wine/poison cards and each player has an opportunity to keep theirs and drink it, or swap with another player. It's quick, fun and sneaky and works with a large group.

In this third expansion to Wingspan, we welcome new species to our habitats by exploring the vibrant, intriguing, and magnificent birds of Asia. These birds were chosen from the over 2,800 species that live in Asia.

This is a stand-alone game for 1 player or 2 players. A new Flock mode is also included to expand the base game of Wingspan up to 6 or 7 players, and these new bird and bonus cards can be combined with the base game and/or previous expansions.
