  It's 44 BCE, the pinnacle of the Roman Republic. At the end of Julius Caesar's civil war, he is left holding enormous power. He has the love of many, but for others, there is only fear. This fear leads Caesar's friends and allies to question his intentions. They're stoking a fire of conspiracy, a conspiracy that will end on the Ides of March, with 23 wounds, a republic in ruin, and the birth of an Empire. In a game of 23 Knives, you take on the role of a Roman citizen with one of three allegiances: a loyalist to Caesar, a liberator of Rome, or an opportunist biding their time. Throughout the game, you travel through Rome, manipulating other citizens and swaying them to your cause. At the end of the game, if 23 or more knives are in the Curia, Caesar is dead and the liberator most committed to killing Caesar wins. With fewer than 23 knives, the loyalist most dedicated to saving Caesar wins. Opportunists are those who linger, waiting to shift the fate of Caesar at the last moment, and if they do, they win as a team.

  New expansions bring deeper strategy and enhanced deduction to a game that asks one not-so-simple question—can you hide in plain sight? The Tribunal expansions elevate every aspect of a strategic deduction game that already stands apartWhen Veiled Fate first launched in 2020, it didn't fit in any genre—and still doesn't. It requires social deduction, but that's not how you win. You win through strategic decisions that are informed by the deduction. Hence strategic deduction. The Tribunal expansions supercharge both the strategy & deduction in Veiled Fate—further elevating a game that already stands apart. HADRIA EXPANSIONA being to be feared, Hadria mercilessly annihilates any demigod found ahead of her on the score tracker at the end of the game—meaning having the most points isn't always a winning strategy. Use new powers to move Hadria and create all kinds of new quandaries for your opponents. The Hadria Expansion is focused on introducing more strategic variables to the game and adds a new miniature, renown tracker, and favor cards. CELESTIALS EXPANSIONEach of the seven celestial beings bestows one player with an asymmetric win condition & abilities. All other players will have to adapt their strategies around the Celestial's win condition to ensure their own victory. The Celestials expansion is focused on introducing more deduction and misdirection to the game and adds a new miniature, renown tracker, spell cards, and 7 celestial cards. SERVANTS EXPANSIONEach servant influences the quest in its region, so players must consider their effects when determining where to move their Demi. Moving the servants introduces new strategic and tactical options towards victory. The Servants expansion adds 3 new miniatures and cards. Servants can be commanded by all players. RENEWAL EXPANSIONEvery time a demigod enters The Pools when being moved out of the Abyss, the player moving them activates the current modifier on the Renewal Dice. That play then re-rolls the renewal dice, resulting in a new modifier for the next player to move a demigod from the Abyss to the Pools. The Renewal Dice replaces the permanent 'refresh card' effect that normally activates in the Pools, creating more dynamic gameplay and ever-shifting strategies surrounding how players use the Abyss.

Idus Martii is a hidden role game for 5 to 8 players.According to Plutarch, a seer had warned that harm would come to Caesar no later than the Ides of March. On his way to the Theatre of Pompey, where he would be assassinated, Caesar passed the seer and joked, "The Ides of March are come", implying that the prophecy had not been fulfilled, to which the seer replied "Aye, Caesar; but not gone."Players are members of the Senate who must plot in favor of or against the magnicide of Julius Caesar. But it is not that easy, as they need to identify who shares their convictions in order to partner against the other players...whilst keeping a look out for those only looking to fatten their purse.There are four roles that are dealt each turn:The "Consul" decides who plays in the round by assigning the other roles. The Consul is passed in clockwise order at the start of each round.There are two "Edils" who vote, secretly, whether Caesar should live or die.The "Praetor" sneaks a peek at one of the two Edils’ played vote cards and may then force them to exchange their card.These two votes are then shuffled, revealed and their results will either move the ‘kill’ or ‘save’ caesar token up the track. The game ends once everyone has played the Consul twice. Then players reveal their role card, total votes are tallied and Caeser either lives…or dies.But the decisions are not that easy. At the beginning of the game, players are dealt two faction cards (either in favour, against or neutral to “magnicide”) and must discard down to one mid-way through the game… keeping all players on their toes!

Tribes is a role-playing game that plays a lot like a board game and simulates the way our ancestors lived long ago. The players are cave men and women. They hunt and gather food, make their tribal laws, and deal with natural disasters, but the object of the game is simple: Look after the children! In this game, the way to win is to have the most kids and do whatever you have to do to make sure they survive to adulthood. The players must know when to cooperate, and when to cut their losses and protect their own families. Players can re-create and change the earliest human societies by instituting their own laws and social patterns, and see what effects the rules of society have on their ability to survive and reproduce. With several copies of the game and a referee, it's possible to have several tribes playing at once, competing, trading, exchanging members, and even making war on each other.
