Theme: It's 1932, Your crew has just pulled off the heist of a lifetime. You scored it all - money, jewels, artwork, etc. You're free for now, but who knows for how long. The authorities are closing in quickly. You need to stash your loot quickly - but beware your crew mates as they are criminals after all and they will steal from you too!

Object: To be the criminal that has stashed the most loot when the cops finally close in and arrest you and your team.

Setup: Each player receives (10) $2,000 Loot cards, and 1 Bluff card The "Arrest" card Police Deck is placed approximately 1/4 of the way from the bottom of the Police Deck.
Each safe house is numbered, and the corresponding stack of Safe House Receipt Cards is placed on the safe houses. Gameplay Phases:

1. Roll die & move
2. Stash, Bluff, Search
3. Draw Police card

Core Mechanic: When a player lands on a safe house, they will have the option to stash loot, bluff stashing loot, or search the house for loot stashed by other players. To stash loot, the player takes a loot card from their hand, place it on the top of the pile of cards and shuffles the cards. The player than takes a receipt card into their hand. To bluff, follow the same procedure, except the player takes back the bluff card. To search the safe house, the player looks through the cards at that safe house and takes all the loot cards present into their hand, and all players with receipts from that safe house put them back into that stack.

End Game: When the "Arrest" card comes out, the game is over immediately, and the player with the most receipts is the winner.

Leprechaun Rumble

The Leprechauns are angry. The Easter Bunny has moved in on their turf, spreading those disgusting eggs. Again. It happens every year around this time and the leprechauns won’t take it anymore.

Components

• A leprechaun,
• 20 shamrocks and 2 pot-o-gold token(s) in each player color.
• A rabbit,
• 10 eggs
• 39 blank token(s).
  All tokens’ backs are identical

Board

Undirected graph over the map of Ireland with 50 nodes known as towns (like Pandemic board)

Setup

Each player’s collection is made up of leprechaun, 20 shamrocks and 2 pot-o-gold token(s) in their color, all face-down.
Take the rabbit, egg and blank tokens. Shuffle them face down and place them randomly on each town. Starting with randomly chosen first player, each player places their leprechaun on any town.

Gameplay

Each players turn, their leprechaun can move 5 towns but cannot back track. A leprechaun cannot enter a town that contains another leprechaun. At each town, the player takes the token that was there and replaces it with a facedown token from his collection. Different tokens have different effects when found:

Blank: These are simply placed face down into the player’s collection

Shamrock: The shamrock is returned to its original player face down.

Egg: These are placed face up on the edge of the board.

Rabbit: The players turn ends after this move as the leprechaun has to stop to capture the rabbit. This is placed face down into the player’s collection. The player that has the rabbit cannot win until he gets rid of the rabbit.

Pot-o-gold: The players turn ends after this move as the leprechaun has to stop to count the gold. The pot-o-gold is placed face down in that player’s collection.

While the Fairy is away: The Revenge of Bunny Foo-Foo

After an epic quest to shed the form of a goon, Bunny Foo-Foo returns to his forest bopping grounds. Thankfully, the “good” fairy has gone on vacation and cannot protect the field mice. Time for some bopping!

Players: 2-4 Ages 5+

Game time: 5-15 minutes

Game Components:

1 Game board with twelve forest locales on it. Each locale has one path of each of the following colours leaving it: Red, Yellow and Blue.

• 1 Bunny Foo-Foo marker
• 3-4 Field Mouse markers
• 1 Mouse deck with 9 red path cards, 9 yellow path cards and 9 blue path cards
• 1 Bunny deck with 7 red path cards, 7 yellow path cards, 7 blue path cards and 6 waiting cards

Setup:

Bunny Foo-Foo sets up in the middle of the board. The field mice set up on specially marked mouse hole locales. First player controls Bunny Foo-Foo
2 Players: Player 2 controls 3 mice
3 Players: Players 2 and 3 control 2 mice
4 Players: Players 2, 3 and 4 control 1 mouse

Game Play:

Each player draws 5 cards from their respective decks and selects 3 in the order they'd like to move down. These are placed face down in front of them. Once everyone has decided, players simultaneously flip over their cards and move their markers along the same coloured paths. Should Bunny Foo-Foo and a mouse occupy the same locale, the field mouse gets bopped on the head and removed from the game. Once all three selected cards are revealed and markers moved, a new turn begins and players add three cards to their hands. The game ends when Bunny Foo-Foo catches the last mouse or the mice finally escape after 10 turns.

Lhasa

The 19th century is drawing to a close and imperialism is at its height. The world’s greatest empires are uncertain of the unknown and unexplored Tibetan plateau that separates them. There are no maps of the terrain, the borders are closed and no one knows what lies within or the exact location of the mysterious city of Lhasa.

Two to four players are approaching Tibet to locate Lhasa braving extreme weather, bandits, avalanches and monks that will escort foreigners to the nearest border rather than risk betraying their country. On top of this are persistent rumours of wild manlike creatures that roam the Himalayas. Players are trying to map the Tibetian plateau whilst avoiding discovery and starvation. Starting from the border they turn over map hexes that reveal villages, monasteries and other terrain features that will score points at the end of the game, assuming they get back to the border alive. Points are scored for each terrain object a player turns over as they progress over the plateau. The exact location of Lhasa is not known but is within a subset of hexes within the middle of the board. Players place cubes on hexes that have been discovered and move faster over known terrain than unknown, however snowfall will obliterate their tracks periodically making the previously known a little less certain.

Seeing a Yeti will make for a good report and score a few points, and they will scare away bandits, but your guides wont go near them and Yeti know better than to approach civilization.

The game plays on a hex board with card-driven events drafted from the side. The game ends after a known amount of turns when a British invasion reaches the capital by force.

The Great Zvengali!

2-5 Players

The players are rival magicians. There is only one true master magician: The Great Zvengali! You are trying to steal his grand trick before the other players do.

Components:

• Board: 5 Theaters in a circle, 2 different magic shops attached to each one.
• 225 Resource Cards: 5 Types (Smoke&Mirrors, Animals, Assistants, Pyrotechnics, Panache) divided into 11 different decks of 25 (Zvengali's! deck, 1 for each shop).

Setup:

1. Lay 2 cards face up from each shop deck next to each shop.
2. Deal 3 cards to each player from Zvengali's! deck.
3. Lay 5 cards arrayed face down in the middle of the board from Zvengali's! deck (“The Trick”).
4. Everyone starts at The Grand Ballroom.
5. Starting player is the one who most recently saw a magic trick.

Player Turn:

• If Zvengali! is on your venue all players there must discard a card from your hand to pay the entrance fee (discard is face up). All players there watch him perform his trick and peek at any one of the cards in “The Trick” in turn order. Move Zvengali! Clockwise if any players peeked.
• Move to any venue.
• If Zvengali! is not at that venue you may take the 2 cards in either of the shops at that venue.
• Turn passes clockwise.

Game End:

On a player's turn, they move to Zvengali! (discarding as normal) and reveal 5 cards from their hand. Reveal Zvengali's! cards 1 by 1 from left to right. If all cards match, that player wins. If a card is revealed that does not match, that player must discard down to 3 cards. The cards in “The Trick” are turned face down and their order is randomized. That player's turn ends, play continues.

War of the Worlds

2-5 players

Embodiment of penance for arrogance, a plague of invaders, and exodus of man.

Goal

Players race to evacuate people from populated areas before eradication. Players also play as Martians, eradicating the People.

Players score based on the number and combinations of people that they rescue, as well as how many of each type of people they Eradicate as Martians.

Board

Board is divided into spaces, some are populated townships at the outset of the game. Each township also has a hidden tile representing an event - Move Martian; Ferry to Safety, Expose Martians.

The size of each space depends on its terrain. Plains and roads are large and long spaces respectively. Forests and hills are smaller spaces but also reduce space for Martians.

Game play

Players alternate their turn for the People and Martians. After a turn as the People, a player's next turn will be for the Martians, and vice versa. First round the starting player is People, 2nd player Martian, 3rd People, etc.

• On "People" turn a player moves all the people in one space to an adjacent space. If moving on to a township, reveal and resolve the event tile there.

• As a "Martian", a player takes actions equal to the number of People moved on the last player's turn.

• Actions include: Move Martian, Eradicate people, Advance Martian Landing (3 spaces in "space" representing journey from Mars)

Game Ends when third "Expose Martians" event is revealed.

GDS Comments:

Hunt: Event tile "Ferry to safety" lets player remove and score X number of People on that space. Players race to find these.

Chase: As Martians, players eradicate X number of People in a space. These are scored (differently) at the end of the game as well.
