Tower is a set collection game for 2-4 players who want to race to beat their opponents to stores and buy the resources they need before the stores are out of stock. Resources are purchased with jewels, which players draw from the black bag at the start of their turns. The players then use their purchased resources to construct segments of the tower. The first player to construct all three of his tower segments wins!

A big theme of Tower is scarcity of resources, with only 18 resources in a four-player game. It's likely that in any given play session there will be enough resources for only one player, forcing everyone to play dirty in order to come out on top.

The black market provides a source for players to hire thugs to carry out some pretty shady actions. These range from intimidation, to stealing resources from other players, and robbing Salil, the tax collector. It's a dirty job, but it's necessary in order to succeed inTower.

Baldrick's Tomb is a roguelike board game for 2-4 players. The game takes place in a four-story, underground tomb that is constantly being churned from the inside out by the late sorcerer Baldrick. The locations of everything – including treasures, traps, monsters, and even the exits – are completely randomized for every game as a result of Baldrick smashing the crypt to bits. The players are tasked with making their way down to the bottom of this tomb, collecting a precious treasure, then climbing back out.

But this is really only a means to an end. The real reason for a group of treasure hunters to explore a dangerous tomb is so that they can (hopefully) acquire heaps of treasure. Players will use their wit, push their luck, and call upon powerful scrolls to help themselves and hinder others, all in the pursuit of treasure points. The player who makes it out of the tomb with the most points wins.
