You're a villain, but not very good at it — Take on the role of a B-list villain who didn’t quite make the cut! In an attempt to capture at least a little bit of infamy, you’re racing other not-so-super villains to publish a book about your misdeeds. Travel around the city hiring dastardly henchman, building outrageous gadgets, and committing pranks and petty crimes. Then write it all down for your (hopefully) best-selling novel!

In Book of Villainy, you move around various locations in rondel fashion, collecting sets of henchman to complete chapters for your book. You score points by collecting chapters with certain themes and arranging the chapters of your book in ascending order.

Once any player completes their book, the game ends.

Do your friends consider you the expert on everything? Does it make your heart swell every time you teach a stranger how to do something right? If so, then Mansplaining is for you!

This party game gives each player a chance to mansplain a random topic to a captive audience. The mansplainer for the round draws a topic card and four detail cards with random words. They then have 60 seconds to explain their topic — starting with the words, "Well, actually..." — while slipping in as many detail words as they can. They cannot use the words on their topic card during this explanation! When they finish, players write down their guesses for the mansplainer's topic and detail words, scoring 1 point for each correct guess. The mansplainer scores for each detail included in their explanation.

After everyone has mansplained twice, the player with the most points wins.

Dragons compete in a variety of ways, but one of their favorite ways to compete is by playing trick-taking games.

In Wicked & Wise, players are either the dragons who are playing a trick-taking game OR they're a mouse allied with a particular dragon to help manipulate the trick-taking game. Over the course of three rounds, each team of mouse and dragon fight over tricks, treasures, and coins to see which team ends up on top!

The game isn't all about winning tricks; it's about setting goals and utilizing magical treasures. If you can make enough of your goals or sabotage enough of the other team's goals, you'll have the most coins at the end of the game and be crowned king of the caves!
