Sky Team
Sky Team is a co-operative game, exclusively for two players, in which you play a pilot and co-pilot at the controls of an airliner. Your goal is to work together as a team to land your airplane in different airports around the world. To land your plane, you need to silently assign your dice to the correct spaces in your cockpit to balance the axis of your plane, control its speed, deploy the flaps, extend the landing gear, contact the control tower to clear your path, and even have a little coffee to improve your concentration enough to change the value of your dice. If the aircraft tilts too much and stalls, overshoots the airport, or collides with another aircraft, you lose the game...and your pilot's license...and probably your life. From Montreal to Tokyo, each airport offers its own set of challenges. Watch out for the turbulence as this could end up being bumpy ride!

Sides
Every word counts, so focus and think carefully about your choices. In the brain-teasing co-operative game Sides, you have to weigh your options and wisely choose your words. The objective of the game is simple: Each round, help two detectives find a mystery word. To do so, the other players (the witnesses) give detectives a one-word clue that starts with the letter at either end of the letter-card line. The detectives then jointly offer an answer, and if they found the solution, two other players become the detectives and a new word is uncovered; if not, the witness players suggest a new clue with a new letter card. The fewer the clues used and the more words guessed, the higher the score. Will you beat the world record?

Motley
Motley is a portable party game of creating clever clues. Gameplay can be competitive or cooperative, but is always fast and fun! Motley is a small box, 27 card party game, where each card has a unique abstract layout of 5 patterns on one side with 3 listed categories on the other side. Play revolves around a clue giver selecting a category from among the cards in hand and laying out the remaining cards so as to arrange the patterns to feature something from the chosen category. Guessing the clue gains the category card as a point for either individual or team. The motley selection of categories and patterns allows for limitless clues that will leave players scratching their heads, shouting answers, and excited to attempt different card arrangements.

The Shipwreck Arcana is a compact, co-operative game of deduction, evaluation, and logic, combining simple and speedy play with deep strategy. Players take turns playing tokens according to rules found on an ever-changing tableau of arcana cards in order to convey information to the rest of the group before their doom arrives.
