There’s gold in the Black Hills of South Dakota, and you’ve come to find (or steal) your share. You’re staying at one of the three major establishments in Deadwood where you and your associates are working together to steal some of the gold-filled safes floating around town. But you suspect that the “friends” you’re working with are secretly plotting to keep all the gold for themselves. Will you be ready to turn on them before they shoot you in the back? In Deadwood 1876, you use cards from your hand to try to win Safes from other players. Safes contain Badges, Gold, or Showdown Guns. Near the end of the game, players with Badges get extra turns. After the final turn, the team with the most Gold will advance to the Final Showdown. There, teammates will have to fight each other to the death using Showdown Guns. The last person alive is the winner! The game is a balance between teamwork and selfishness. If a player uses all of their best cards to hunt down Gold for their team, they’ll be defenseless to fight against their teammates if they go to the Final Showdown. But if a player only goes after Guns and saves all of their best cards, their team might not have enough Gold to actually reach the Final Showdown. If someone on your team doesn’t seem to be pulling their weight, they might be plotting to steal your gold after using you to get to the Finals! There may come a point where you need to gather Showdown Guns instead of Gold, or attack, mislead, frame, abandon, or banish your own teammates. Deadwood 1876, volume 3 in the "Dark Cities" series from Facade Games, can have 2-9 players. Learn in 20 min or less, play in 20-40 min or less.

Guild Master is a fantasy tabletop game for 2-4 players. Players manage an adventuring guild, competing with each other to become the most famous guild as an escalating series of events threaten the land. In each of the nine rounds, players simultaneously and secretly program orders to send teams of adventurers out to do the following: Recruit more adventurers. Attempt increasingly difficult contracts to gain money, fame and other rewards. Hire builders to upgrade their guild to increase their capacity to do all of that more. All players then sequentially resolve their planned orders, starting with each players' 1st order, then 2nd order and so on, and in the order they appear on the board (builders, then adventurers A-F then contracts 1-6). Players plan and program orders carefully around other players' likely moves, various strategies, risks, and rewards. They manage their guilds' growth and optimize combinations between their adventurer abilities and contract rewards to achieve their goals. As the game advances, guilds become more powerful and must rise to meet an increasing number of game state changing threats. Recruiting increasingly powerful adventurers and upgrading your guild capacity are both key to victory. There are various ways to exert control over the board, your dice rolls, and your chances to get what you want. Most orders are resolved by paying coin or rolling dice based on your adventurers' skills. Sometimes players resolve these orders alone, and sometimes cooperating with, or in conflict with, other guild's adventuring teams attempting the same thing at the same time. When players' orders overlap, coins and negotiated prisoners' dilemma cooperate/conflict skill checks resolve the contest. Negotiation over shared goals, contract bonuses and reward splits is encouraged and rewarding, but not absolutely required to win. Everything you do earns you fame (victory points) and other rewards. At the end of nine rounds, any remaining coins are converted to fame at a rate of 5 coins = 1 fame. Then any special prestige upgrade fame is added. The most famous guild is then declared the winner.

Amazing Jungle Run provides fun, immersive gameplay that rewards clever planning. Tactics and strategy work hand in hand as you choose how to build your resources and use them effectively. Each turn, players get to choose between “actions” of gaining resource or peril cards, or peeking at the bottom of one of the “Jungle decks.”  Then, a player collects all like “commons” from the Jungle decks (and the bonuses those cards might have) or roll the dice for “point” cards or POWER cards. Cards can work together in unique ways.  For example, near the end of the game, you have learned a 2-point card is at the bottom of a particular deck, and it’s all you need to win.  You don’t have a “bottom feeder” card, but you do have 2 “hideways” and one “transport”.  You hideaway two main deck cards (bringing your 2-pointer closer to the top), followed by transporting the next card to another deck.  Voila, you’re ready to roll for the 2-pointer and the win. You also have a couple “dice changer” cards you’ve been holding on to, so you feel pretty good about the outcome!   “Amazing Jungle Run” can be played SOLO in addition to 2,3, and 4 Players.

  We all remember and love the stories we discovered as kids — especially when they’re just as rewarding to revisit as adults. And their original literary form isn't the only way to enjoy them. What if classic tales were reimagined as thrilling detective adventures? Winnie the Pooh: Serious Detective is a narrative-driven board game in which players take on the roles of beloved childhood characters — now turned detectives — to solve challenging and often peculiar mysteries. Inspired by the works of A. A. Milne, Lewis Carroll, and Arthurian legends, the game’s three scenarios are rich with literary charm, layered storytelling, clever wordplay, and just the right touch of whimsy.

Each case was illustrated by a different artist in their unique style. The mysteries unfold across a beautifully illustrated map of interconnected location cards. Players use both shared and personal action dice to explore scenes, uncover clues, and reveal story cards — including testimonies, observations, puzzles, and more. Every discovery adds depth to the story and brings the group closer to cracking the case. Though designed with adults in mind, the game is also accessible and engaging for younger players — making it a perfect choice for a family game night with a touch of mystery.

This item is a pre-order item with an expected release date of February 2026 Orders containing a pre-order items WILL NOT SHIP until the final pre-order item is able to be shipped. Dates and product details are subject to change as new information from the manufacturer is updated. Welcome to the Northern Expanse, a place where nature is still unexplored, mystical and dangerous. When the humans first arrived, they thought they found an unspoiled paradise, filled with bountiful forests, lakes swimming with fish and cold freshwater flowing from the mountains. But as their settlements expanded and the surrounding forests grew thinner, nature itself pushed back. Great creatures known as Beasts emerged, and with their fangs, claws and mystical powers, they proved an incredible threat to the humans. In order to protect the settlements, humans enlisted specialised hunters, tasked with tracking and killing the Beasts before too many of their kin perish. The Beast uses a deck of direction cards to move over forests, swamps and caverns, using guile and deceit to hide its track from the hunters. However, whenever a hunter moves over a location where the Beast has previously been, a trail appears. Only when a hunter searches a location or the Beast itself attacks an unsuspecting target is the Beast's actual position revealed. More so, each hunter has but one chance of searching each round, making it a tense and difficult decision. Hunters seldom have full information whether the trail they’re pursuing contains the Beast’s actual location, or if the trail has already gone cold. Each action you perform in this game is done by playing a card from your hand (up to a maximum of two cards per turn). This means that if a player wants to search, attack or move, they need to have a card in their hand that lets them do that. Before each round, both hunters and Beast participate in a draft for the most important cards. All action cards can be used by both Beast and hunters alike. In order to win this game, you either need to cooperate every step of the way if you play as a hunter, or skillfully outmaneuver your opponents if you play as Beast. On their own, hunters are never stronger than the Beast. Only when hunters communicate, strategize and combine their actions can they bring down the Beast before it’s too late.
