In A Message From the Stars, a team of scientists seeks to decipher cryptic messages from an extraterrestrial civilization.

Set against a backdrop of cosmic mystery, players take on the roles of brilliant scientists tasked with decoding a series of perplexing satellite transmissions. These transmissions are believed to contain vital messages from an alien race that could hold the key to the destiny of Earth. The catch? The messages are incomprehensible, written in an entirely unknown alien language.

Using engrossing deduction mechanics, players will collaborate with their fellow scientists to send messages back to the extraterrestrial senders. By exchanging these messages, you hope to unravel the intricate linguistic code that conceals the true intentions of the alien entity. Each interaction yields a numerical value, a piece of the puzzle that you'll need to solve the riddle of the alien language.

Players can engage in cooperative gameplay, where all scientists pool their collective intellect to crack the alien code and unveil the hidden message. Alternatively, delve into team play, with two alien players sending messages across the galaxy.

Bites: New Recipes adds exciting game changing possibilities to the core game of Bites. One of the things that made the original game so exciting and replayable were the variable scoring cards.

This expansion takes them to an entirely different level. You'll be able to play with over a dozen new rule cards that have noticeably larger effects than the cards in the base game. In addition to the rule cards, you'll have new characters and objects to play with. With this expansion, it can feel like you are playing a completely different game!

Can you keep your dinosaurs fed?

Layered tile placement, where your tiles might eat each other!

It's eat or be eaten. Are you ready to feed some dinos AND stop them from CHOMPING each other? The era of the dinosaurs is here!

Form herds of dinos and make sure they are all fed. Herbivores and carnivores both need food. Careful! If the carnies are not fed, they won't mind chomping an herbie to fill their bellies.

Chomp is a quick game where you only get eight turns. Make the most of them! Every card in the game has a point-scoring goal on one side and a dinosaur landscape on the other side.

Each turn, you'll get to choose from rows of 3 goal cards and 3 dino cards. If you take a goal, it will help direct your strategy to score points at the end of the game. If you take a dino, add it to your dino-land. As you add cards, you'll be trying to form herds, make sure they are all fed, and maximize your scoring!

Rock the Funway, multiple auctions at once!

Take on the role of a fashion model as you hit the runways in New York, Paris, and Tokyo to build your career! It's hard to be everywhere at once. Bid wisely and become a fashion icon! Or, spread yourself too thin and end up a fashion flop!

Every turn, there are three simultaneous auctions. You can't win them all. But, can you win the right ones? Compete to model different types of fashion, each with their own scoring criteria.

Each turn, new cards will be available in each of the three cities. Simultaneously, all players make secret bids in each city using their influence card. The player who bids the most in a particular city gets the first pick in that city. Second most, second pick, and so on.

Some of the cards you collect will give you immediate points. Others will replace influence cards in your hand, giving you more bidding power. However, most of the cards help you compete for magazine covers through set collection. These score big points at the end of the game.

The model with the highest score after seven rounds wins the game!

Fiction is a Wordle-inspired game of deception. One player is the Lie-brarian and will choose a secret word from a classic work of literature. The other players will, as a team, use logic and literacy to deduce the secret word as quickly as possible.

Players have ten guesses and two ten-minute time periods to deduce the secret word, but beware! The Lie-brarian's clues will always contain exactly one lie. The Guessers win if they figure out the word; the Lie-brarian wins if the time or number of guesses runs out.

A drafting game with style!

In Llama Llama, players pass cards to craft hands around the different scoring conditions.

These conditions are secretly chosen by the players at the start of the round.

Try to guess the goal cards and make the best scoring hand!

It's a wild race to the top! Will you be greatest goat or get kicked off the top spot?

In Mountain Goats, roll dice to move your goats to the top of 6 different mountains. If you're at the top, score points as long as you stay there.

You can share spaces with other goats on the way up, but there is only room for one goat at the top of each mountain! If someone else's goat moves to the mountaintop, they kick you off and you'll have to start your trek over. Mountain Goats is a combination of luck and strategic planning. Plus, we've got the best goat meeples this side of the Matterhorn!

Mountain Goats is a game about timing. Not only do you need to get to the top of the mountain, but get there when no one else is in position to knock you off. Depending on the rarity of the roll, the mountain's elevation is different. Should you use those harder rolls, even though other goats are right behind you?

Keep an eye on your opponents! Maximize your score, but also making sure you don't let anyone else score too much.

Knocking each other off the top doesn't feel too mean because you can only knock back goats that are in a scoring position. It isn't a devastating setback, but a normal part of the cycle of the game.

Grow a lush garden of beautiful blooms in order to attract helpful pollinators to their favorite flowers. Lay tiles in the right spots so that they pollinate your flowers instead of your opponents'. Make sure you win the right mix, because Pollen has a unique scoring system!

There are some classic Reiner Knizia mechanisms at the heart of Pollen that guarantee an interactive (and even cutthroat!) game. The endgame scoring makes you pay extra attention to which types of insects you are collecting, not allowing you to focus only one one.

Beth Sobel's incredible illustrations combine with stellar components to tie it all together. With Pollen, you can create a stunning garden right on your table!

In this beautifully illustrated roll and write, you'll take on the role of a young woman going on a once-in-a-lifetime journey around the world. Travel to incredible landmarks all over the globe - from the Pyramid of Giza to the Matterhorn. Follow the young artist's journey through her postcards, sent back home to her family to recount the details of her trip.

Try to be the first player to fill in enough boxes to make it to the top of the landmark in this roll-and-write.

All players will pull from the same pool of numbers rolled on the active dice, using the values to make their way up from the bottom to the top of each landmark. Numbers must increase as you climb, so combine the values carefully!

Each location card will bring a series of unique rules, mixing up play and adding to the challenge! At the end of each round, use the action die to change the dice pool and continue your race to the top!

Featuring many of the classic Roll to the Top landmarks, this new edition provides new-and-improved game mechanics plus all-new illustrations by artist Horia Tundrea.

Strap on your eye patch! Navigate your ship through turbulent waters in this cooperative trick-taking 2-player game. Steer your boat and fight the Kraken with cards and winning tricks. Avoid taking damage and sail with great teamwork (or your crew will be sleeping with the fishes!).

Each round, you and your partner will play tricks until one of you wins four tricks.

In Sequoia you are trying to grow the tallest trees in 11 different forests. After your 10 turns, if you have the tallest tree, then you get the victory points from that forest. Second place gets a small consolation prize.

Each turn, you get to grow two of your trees. Which trees you choose will determine if you win or lose. Do you keep fighting in a forest with competition, or start growing your tree somewhere else? You'll have to wrestle with the dice to grow the tree you want.

Sequoia is a game of choosing your battles.

The dice will always give you choices, but they will be hard choices.

Ties in each forest are decided by extra tie-breaker rounds that can lead to epic finishes.

Let's Hit The Trails!

Lace up those hiking boots, grab your trusty trekking poles, and fight over these tiles!

Players embark on an epic mountain-trekking expedition, blazing a trail through uncharted terrain. Your goal? Mark the path along the way and hike the most paths.

Each turn, you place one of your three tiles on the map and then either 1) place one of your hikers on that tile or 2) buddy up two of your hikers to save for a double move later.

The rules are simple, but the decisions are tough!

Hikers only score if they are on a path of 4 continuous numbers. Do you join an opponents' trail to team up, or block their path with one of your own? Do you forgo a sure placement to buddy up your hikers for a perfect space next turn? Will that space even be available next turn?

Start the timer and begin your quest! Tear up your sheet to defeat monsters, collect treasure, and prove you're the best ripper!

There are bonuses and curses on the back of your paper - make sure you check the back or hold your paper up to the light! The player with the most points after three rounds wins.

Playable in solo mode too!
