DARWIN'S JOURNEY
When all you can identify in the horizon for many long days is the line that detaches the sea from the sky, the glimpse of a distant shore appearing before you will make you shiver at the understanding that the adventure is about to begin.
You find yourself astonished, landing on the shore that will be the origin of an extensive exploration through the Galapagos, a magic place of inconceivable beauty and endless biodiversity. There, you will gather repertoires and expand your knowledge of the natural sciences. Your eyes will learn how to detect the hidden species in the tropical forest, gazing at the countless colors and textures of nature. After inspiring hours spent studying and getting to enlightening conclusions, you will rest under a sparkling sky, admiring the stunning complexity of the animal realm.
Darwin's Journey is a worker-placement Eurogame in which players recall Charles Darwin's memories of his adventure through the Galapagos islands, which contributed to the development of his theory of evolution.
With the game's innovative worker progression system, each worker will have to study the disciplines that are a prerequisite to perform several actions in the game, such as exploration, correspondence, gathering, and dispatch of repertoires found on the island to museums in order to contribute to the human knowledge of biology. The game lasts five rounds, and thanks to several short- and long-term objectives, every action you take will grant victory points in different ways.

FLUXX: STAR TREK
Fluxx is a card game in which the cards themselves determine the current rules of the game. By playing cards, you change numerous aspects of the game: how to draw cards, how to play cards, and even how to win.
At the start of the game, each player holds three cards and on a turn a player draws one card, then plays one card. By playing cards, you can put new rules into play that change numerous aspects of the game: how many cards to draw or play, how many cards you can hold in hand or keep on the table in front of you, and (most importantly) how to win the game. There are many editions, themed siblings, and promo cards available.
Now you can set a course for the final frontier with Star Trek Fluxx! Featuring Kirk, Spock, McCoy, and the rest of the original series crew, in this game you take command of the Enterprise, and face Creepers like Klingons, Romulans, and the terrifying Doomsday Machine. You might even find yourself playing "Fizzbin" or "Venting the Warp Core" to explore new worlds and collect the Keepers needed for victory! Star Trek Fluxx will take you where no card game has gone before!

HUES AND CUES
What hue do you think of when we say “apple”? Hues and Cues is a vibrant game of colorful communication where players are challenged to make connections to colors with words. Using only one and two-word cues, players try to get others to guess a specific hue from the 480 colors on the game board. The closer the guesses are to the target, the more points you earn. Since everyone imagines colors differently, connecting colors and clues has never been this much fun!
Gather around with three to ten people to play a quick and simple game with a prism of possibilities! First, a “cue giver” hides a specific color they’ve chosen out of a deck of cards. There are 480 shades on the board in front of you! After getting one- and two-word cues, everyone places their marker on which color they think is being described. “Coffee.” Is it dark brown, as in freshly brewed? “Au lait.” With milk. That means I should pick a lighter shade!
Use examples from everyday life, from nature to pop culture, or materials and moods. Everyone around the table gets a turn to give cues and guess. The better your hints or guesses, the more points you earn. Play off others' experiences to narrow down what they have in mind!

ENDEARMENT
It is a time of elegance, wit, and exacting decorum, and you, a handsome young lady of respectable family and pleasing address, have just completed the perusal of a most delightfully engaging novel. You begin to consider, were you a heroine upon such pages, whether your character would be marked by wit and charm, vigour and capability, honour and wealth. Amidst the genteel diversions and drawing-room delights so prettily described, your heart begins to fix not on the trifles, but on the heroine’s romance, and you find yourself, perhaps unwisely, wishing for a story not unlike her own.
Endearment is a strategy board game where you take on the role of one of Jane Austen's beloved heroines as you traverse Regency England, improve your traits, and engage in social rivalries in pursuit of a timeless romance.
The game is quick to learn using a simple rule system that enables players to jump right into the game without reading page after page of rule books. Randomized goals and different paths to victory make every expedition a fresh and fun experience.
GAMEPLAY
The game is played over a series of Chapters.
At the start of each Chapter, Settings and Characters are added to the game board, and a Plot card is drawn. Then players take turns visiting Town to gain Persuasion from the Tea House, buy Dresses from the Modiste, and invite or search for Characters in the Character deck and discard. Once all players have performed their Town actions, players take turns visiting Settings and interacting with Characters in a series of rounds until all Settings have been visited and the Chapter ends.
As with any Jane Austen novel, the game ends with a wedding (or sometimes more than one wedding)! Once one or more players are married, the current Chapter is completed, the game ends, and bonus points are scored. The player with the most Endearment wins!

WARHAMMER QUEST: DARKWATER
Evil is festering amid the ruins of the Jade Abbey. The daemonic warlord Gelgus Pust seeks to poison the wondrous fount of life-giving water known as the Everspring, which lies beneath the ruined stronghold. Magically imbued with restorative properties, the Everspring grants vitality to the surrounding lands. Yet Pust would see it befouled with the toxic gifts of his master – Nurgle, Lord of Plagues. Only an ill-matched band of heroes and sellswords stands between the Prince of Sores and his final victory. To reach him, they must navigate a landscape that has been moulded and twisted according to Nurgle’s vile whims.

Only by working together and balancing your strengths and skills can you hope to survive. With each journey, you will uncover the devious plans of the daemonic Prince of Sores.
