The Abyss power is once again vacant, so the time has come to get your hands on the throne and its privileges. Use all of your cunning to win or buy votes in the Council. Recruit the most influential Lords and abuse their powers to take control of the most strategic territories. Finally, impose yourself as the only one able to rule the Abyssal people!Abyss is a game of development, combination and collection in which players try to take control of strategic locations in an underwater city. To achieve this, players must develop on three levels: first by collecting allies, then using them to recruit Lords of the Abyss, who will then grant access to different parts of the city. Players acquire cards through a draft of sorts, and the Lords of the Abyss acquired on those cards grant special powers to the cardholder — but once you use the cards to acquire a location, that power is shut off, so players need to time their land grabs well in order to put themselves in the best position for when the game ends.2-4 playersAges 14+30-60 minute play time

The battle to control the undersea world of Abyss continues with the Abyss: Kraken expansion! Take advantage of a new Guild of Lords, the Smugglers, and use a beautiful new currency of corruption to grease the political wheels. But be careful, each black pearl you take will cost you at the end of the game—if you can't get rid of it first. The new ally race, the Kraken, offer fantastic versatility, but taking their help earns you more of the perilous black pearls. New locations invite you to raid the loot deck for treasure, which can be valuable, but costly if you're too greedy. Finally, Abyss: Kraken adds a host of new lords, locations, and allies, all featuring the award-winning artwork of Xavier Collette.

Ancient Egypt was full of different gods that the people prayed to, offering up gifts and devotion. This made the gods strong. But as time has gone on, the offerings and prayers have waned, moving towards fewer gods. As the whims of mankind change, the power of the gods wanes. In the end, only one will remain. The Pantheon expansion for Ankh offers players five more gods to choose from when starting a game. Set, Bastet, Hathor, Horus, and Toth come complete with their own warriors, dashboards, ankh tokens, and more. Each god has their own unique power that they will bring to the battlefields of Egypt where only one god will reign supreme in the end.

The Pharaohs in ancient Egypt were anointed by the gods, themselves, to be the ruler of the people as well as the high priest and humanity’s defender. When the gods began their war against one-another, they all sought the Pharaoh’s favor. But the Pharaoh was determined to remain neutral and make sure that the conflict didn’t spill over into the moral realm. However, each god is still trying to curry his favor by influencing events in the royal palace. The Pharaoh expansion for Ankh brings an entirely new dimension to the game. The gods will send their high priests into the courts of the royal palace, looking to gain favor with the Pharaoh so that he will recognize them as the one true god of the land. These god’s influence will be felt far and wide, changing the course of the civilization, hopefully for the better if they wish to be the one that remains when Egypt becomes monotheistic.

The objective of Power Grid is to supply the most cities with power when someone's network gains a predetermined size. In this new edition, players mark pre-existing routes between cities for connection, and then bid against each other to purchase the power plants that they use to power their cities. However, as plants are purchased, newer, more efficient plants become available, so by merely purchasing, you're potentially allowing others access to superior equipment. Additionally, players must acquire the raw materials (coal, oil, garbage, and uranium) needed to power said plants (except for the 'renewable' windfarm/ solar plants, which require no fuel), making it a constant struggle to upgrade your plants for maximum efficiency while still retaining enough wealth to quickly expand your network to get the cheapest routes.

Tiny Epic Kingdoms is the full 4X experience in a tiny package, and forgoes all the weighty setup and teardown of other games in the genre. The game’s main appeal is its lack of player down time. Every time a player takes an action on their turn, each other player has the choice to take one of two actions. This unique action economy adds a surprising amount of tactical depth, and eliminates one of the biggest problems that 4X games typically have, the wait time. The game is built to be incredibly easy to learn, and I would highly recommend it as an entry point into the 4X genre.                                                                                     - Pat (Guild Service Representative) You are a tiny kingdom with big ambition. You want to expand your population throughout the realms, learn powerful magic, build grand towers, and have your neighbors quiver at the mention of your name. The conflict? All of the other kingdoms want the same thing and there's not enough room for everyone to succeed... In Tiny Epic Kingdoms, a 4x fantasy game in a pocket-size package, each player starts with a unique faction (which has a unique technology tree) and a small territory. Throughout the game, players collect resources, explore other territories, battle each other, research magic, and work to build a great tower to protect their realm.

The war continues and spreads further and further. New factions have arrived from the north igniting more epic battles than before. Heroes rise over the fallen bodies of their enemies. Kingdoms spread across the frozen wastelands in search of silver. War Towers grow taller than the trees. Who will be victorious in the end? Tiny Epic Kingdoms: Heroes' Call introduces heroes to the war. Heroes will bring to play a variety of benefits unique to their class. Players will use a larger meeple to represent the hero of their faction. Additionally new mechanisms are introduced to the building action of the game. This will have players tracking their tower progress by placing tower cubes onto regions they possess. Players are encouraged to keep these tower cubes safe because losing them in war results in a loss of progress on the tower card. Furthermore Tiny Epic Kingdoms: Heroes' Call introduces a slew of new factions, new regions with new mechanisms and a new resource type, and even brings solo play to Tiny Epic Kingdoms! The lore of Tiny Epic Kingdoms: Heroes' Call occurs after Tiny Epic Kingdoms and before Tiny Epic Defenders.

The only rule difference between the two versions is how units react to the Ruins region and certain faction/territory restrictions exist due to having them back to back on the cards.
