Seven Dragons
In Seven Dragons, players start with a secret goal color from the seven colored dragons and a hand of three cards. The Silver Dragon is laid on the table as the starting card; at this stage it is a wild card. The playing cards feature domino-like colored panels in the same manner as Aquarius, an earlier game design from Andy Looney. On a player's turn, he draws one card and plays one from his hand. Cards are laid so as to connect matching colored panels. The deck also includes Action Cards such as Move a Card, Zap a Card, Trade Hands, etc. The used Action Cards form a discard pile, and the top card of this pile dictates the color of the starting Silver Dragon; once the discard pile has started, the Silver Dragon is no longer wild. The first player to create a connected territory of seven panels matching her dragon color wins.

Bites
Five ants are making their way through a picnic full of food. On your turn, move any ant to the next food in the trail that matches their color, then take the food token directly in front of or behind the ant, saving it to score at the end of the game. However, you don’t know for sure how much the food is going to be worth until the matching ant makes it to the Anthill at the end of the trail. This creates shared incentives as you work with other players to advance some ants and hold others back. Every game is different because cards are drawn from four decks to make a unique set of special rules. These drastically change the goals and strategies so you will never play the same game twice (unless you want to). Your actions will change the incentives for the other players. Can you manage these cascading effects to collect the most valuable food collection? Can you recognize how to change your strategy based on the wildly different rules cards?

Samarkand Market is based on Sid Sackson’s game Business (1998).Each round, groups (Lots) of colored cubes are auctioned off, with players simultaneously bidding to determine in what order they’ll pick their Lots.

Every turn a single play might sway an entire battlefield to victory, acquire new armies, tactics, and gold, turn a hard-won skirmish into a crushing defeat, or hollowly divert attention from your true motives.

Then all players will participate in a Silent Auction, with the highest bidder receiving the most cards and so on down the chain. All players who received any cards pay their bid to the bank, and anyone who did not receive a card (lowest bidders) will pay half their bid rounded down. Everyone will then have the option to put a card they have won up for sale using their own Scudo as collateral for the sale price. There are slight variations based on the number of players, such as keeping a secret card in your hand until game end to add to your goods. In the 2-4 player games there are 5 auction rounds, after which a payout phase begins. Players with the most of each good are paid an amount from bank, as well as 1 Scudo from each other player with any of the good. Once payout is complete, everyone pays back their loans (taken out for 10 and paid back for 15) and the game is over. The player with the most Scudo is declared the winner!
