The Lords of Vegas 6-player base set is a new printing of the classic board game, expanded to support 2-6 players and including modernized graphic designs, plus all of the components from the Up! expansion.

In Lords of Vegas you start out with empty lots, build small casinos, and expand them as your bankroll grows. Your rivals can build next door, and they just might take you over with a clever paint job or a lucky roll of the dice. Buy, sell, trade, and gamble your way to the top as you build your empire along the storied Strip. Channel your inner casino mogul and build your piece of Paradise!

This new edition from the creators of the game features redesigned money, cards, tray, and more. All the rules and components are functionally the same as the classic edition, just with a fresh coat of paint in some cases. The new Lords of Vegas includes updated components and the 5 & 6-player expansion Up!, which lets players build their casinos in three dimensions, adding new stories as their towers compete for control of the sky. Here are some improvements in the new edition.

-Plays with 2-6 players.
-Contains 72 dice!
-Risers and the raise rule are included, at any player count.
-Streamlined property cards work seamlessly with Vegas, as well as the expansion boards for Americana.
-More reference cards with turn orders, replacing the less useful House and Player cards.
-Turn order has been streamlined based on years of player feedback.

Type: Board Games
Price: 19.95

Designer James Ernest
Publisher Cheapass Games
Players 2-5
Playtime 30 mins
Suggested Age 8 and up

In this wacky Cheapass title, players are Sous Chefs trying to get to the top floor of a skyscraper by scaling the outside. However the maniacal Devil Bunny is hopping about in a mad lust for blood thinking he'll get a ham by knocking you off. Yeah, right, whatever.

The game board is a rectangular grid representing the side of a building, with the starting space at the bottom, and the goal at the top. There is a dotted line near the top that represents a critical height (see below). Furthermore, there are special spaces on the sides of the buildings that represent "fear" that cannot be moved into (As a show of Cheapass Games' signature humor, these fears included "spiders" and "Wesley Snipes.")

In the basic game, each player controls two sous-chefs; on each turn, the player rolls two six-sided dice. Any roll other than a 6 can be used to move one or both sous-chefs up the side of the building, either horizontally or on upwards diagonals (a player cannot voluntarily move down the building). If a 6 is rolled, the Devil Bunny token is moved to the highest sous-chef on the board and knocks him off; if there is a sous-chef vertically below the one that was knocked off, the player controlling that one may opt to catch the falling sous-chef, placing the token in the spaces immediately below him. If no player that is able to catch the sous chef offers to help, the chef will crash to the ground. If the chef fell from a height below the marked line on the board, the chef is safe but must restart him climb back from the start. However, if the chef was above this line, the chef is dead, leaving the player with one fewer token to win. The players earn points for the order in which their chefs arrive at the top, and the weighting is such that a player with second and third-place chefs can beat a player with a first-place and a dead (non-scoring) chef.

Variants include ignoring the effects of the fear spaces (which normally cluster the players into the center columns), and using 3 sous-chef tokens for each player.

In 2022, Greater Than Games created a boxed edition with upgraded components. ]]>

Game description from the publisher:

Captain Treasure Boots is a fast-playing pirate-themed board game. Players gather treasure from islands around the board, and bring the treasure home to port. Treasures are worth points, but they also give you special abilities, so you'll have to decide how much to keep, and how much to cash in.

Of course, treasure is never safe aboard your vessel! Players can attack each other and steal treasure – and the board is home to a few "Privateers", extra pirate ships that can be controlled by anyone.

Veritas is a Euro-style board game about the preservation of truth in Dark Ages France. Each player represents some "truth" that's trying to be preserved for posterity by diligent book-copying monks. Players place and copy book tokens in monasteries, then pick up stacks of books and spread them around France. Each turn, a monastery will burn down, and the books in it may be destroyed. After the monasteries have burned down, players can move through them, so travel on the board gets faster as the game progresses. When scoring chips are drawn, each player whose ideology dominates a region scores points. The first player to score 100 points wins, becoming the dominant truth as the Dark Ages end.

Note: This game is in Chinese.

Designer James Ernest released The Big Idea through his own Cheapass Games in 2000, with the game being a hybrid of party game and light strategy game. In that design, players would create crazy inventions from the adjective and noun cards in their hands, simultaneously choose one invention (other than their own) to invest in, pay to invest in other inventions (whether newly created that round or an earlier creation), then roll a die for each investment to see whether it pays off and if so by how much. The player who collected the most money won.

For the 2011 edition of The Big Idea from French publisher Funforge, Ernest and Funforge's Philippe Nouhra have transformed the design into a true party game by stripping out the elements related to earning money. Players still have a hand of adjective and noun cards, and combine any number of them to create a fancy invention. They then take turns pitching their ideas to everyone in the game, lobbying players as if they were in front of a crowd of venture capitalists. Players then secretly vote on which idea they feel should be rewarded, placing a reward card face down in front of the chosen invention and blank cards in front of all other inventions. The player who collects the most rewards wins the round.

Unlike the Cheapass titles of yore, Funforge's The Big Idea will include high-quality, full-color illustrated cards packaged in a nice box.

Fish Cook is a simple Euro-style board game in which players take the role of chefs. The game is divided into several "days" that have two parts: Morning and Evening. In the morning, players buy ingredients from the fish market and farmer's market; in the evening, they cook recipes and earn money. The strategy revolves around buying ingredients as cheaply and efficiently as possible, in addition to stealing the good ideas of your fellow chefs.

For centuries, the legendary wingaling dragon Trogdor the Burninator has terrorized the peasant kingdom of Peasantry with his scorching flames and greased-up beefy arm. Now, he has descended from the mountains once again and will not stop until he burninates the entire countryside and all those unfortunate enough to get in his way!

A cult of hooded creepos calling themselves the Keepers of Trogdor have devoted their lives to aiding the mighty dragon in his quest for total and complete burnination. That's where YOU come in!

In Trogdor!: The Board Game, you and up to five friends — or maybe people you just paid to come over — take on the roles of these acolytes of the Burninator, each with their own unique abilities and magical items. Take turns guiding Trogdor on his destructive lost weekend around Peasantry. Help him avoid pesky knights and archers, devour peasants, burninate the countryside, and, of course, the thatched roof COTTAGES!!

Reimplements Girl Genius: The Works

Girl Genius: The Works is a non-collectible card game that consists of several standalone decks of cards. You can play the game with any one of those decks, while also being able to combine some or all of those decks into a single deck for a longer game or a game with more players. Each deck contains many unique cards, but the gameplay is the same in all cases.

Each player gets a five-card hand and twelve cards are laid out face-down in a patchwork pattern. Each card has colored symbols along each side, as well as a point value and special instructions. On your turn, you reveal one face-down card, then spin any face-up card 180º. After spinning, if any of the symbols on the edges of the spun card match the symbols on one or more of the surrounding cards, you "pop" the card(s) with the most matching symbols. "Popping" a card means that you must follow the instructions on the card (whether helpful or harmful), then (usually) add it to your score pile. Cards in your hand are used to replace any popped cards. The game is played until one player has 70/50/40/30 points with two/three/four/more than four players.

Reimplements Girl Genius: The Works

Girl Genius: The Works is a non-collectible card game that consists of several standalone decks of cards. You can play the game with any one of those decks, while also being able to combine some or all of those decks into a single deck for a longer game or a game with more players. Each deck contains many unique cards, but the gameplay is the same in all cases.

Each player gets a five-card hand and twelve cards are laid out face-down in a patchwork pattern. Each card has colored symbols along each side, as well as a point value and special instructions. On your turn, you reveal one face-down card, then spin any face-up card 180º. After spinning, if any of the symbols on the edges of the spun card match the symbols on one or more of the surrounding cards, you "pop" the card(s) with the most matching symbols. "Popping" a card means that you must follow the instructions on the card (whether helpful or harmful), then (usually) add it to your score pile. Cards in your hand are used to replace any popped cards. The game is played until one player has 70/50/40/30 points with two/three/four/more than four players.

Master Payne's Circus of Adventure contains story elements from Agatha's time in the circus as well as her visit to Sturmhalten. Unique character blocks in this deck include Circus Cards, Mimmoths, and some fairly nasty Villains. Roughly ten cards in this deck are part of Master Payne's traveling circus. Although these Circus Cards have different effects, popping some — such as André and Lars — grant you an automatic win if you have five or more Circus Cards in your score pile!

Many of the other cards are designed specifically to help you get closer to the Circus Card goal. Baba Yaga, for example, lets you steal a Circus Card from another player's score pile. The Horse Monster Beastie, on the other hand, scares all the Circus Cards from play back into the deck!

The Mimmoths — tiny, wooly, adorable mammoths — travel in herds, so whenever you pop one of them, you get to steal all the others from every player's score pile! Though Mimmoths are only worth three points each, there are six of them in the deck, and they can snowball into an 18-point block.

The Castle Heterodyne deck includes themes and characters from Agatha's time in Castle Heterodyne, and her early days in Mechanicsburg. There are two major blocks of cards in this deck: Prisoners and Minions. Castle Heterodyne is a huge semi-conscious prison, and many of the characters in the story are stuck there. Thus, the Castle says, "If you have four Prisoners in your Score Pile right now, you win." But accumulating four of them can sometimes be pretty painful. Some of them mess up the board when you pop them, screwing up your plans. Others mess with your hand and Score Pile.

The nine Minions in this deck have both good effects and bad, with other cards providing support for Minions.

The Castle Wulfenbach deck has two large groups of unique cards: six Jägermonsters and seven Dingbots. The Jägers are troublemakers: They are all Soldiers, and they all pop one Soldier, so if you pop one of them, you just might get them all! But their second effects are not always so great: They include "Let another player draw a card from your score pile", "Let another player draw three cards from your hand", and "Put this card in another player's score pile."

The Dingbots like to clump together — they are like the Mimmoths from the original edition of Girl Genius: The Works, who are returning in the Circus deck — but they're not quite as talented as the Mimmoths. Most of them say "Move one Dingbot from another player's score pile into yours", although Dingbot Prime is as strong as a Mimmoth and able to grab them all.

Before I Kill You, Mr. Bond is a silly, stupid game straight from the Cheapass Games playbook. In it, players take on the role of villains building their remote fortresses and capturing secret agents. When one is captured, he can be killed right away, but what's the fun in that? The real points come when you slowly reveal your secret plan to him — or leave him to be eaten by sharks. Of course, that's where the risk is, too, and the longer you postpone the kill, the greater the likelihood that another player will produce a card that allows the agent to escape and destroy your fortress.

Reissued in color in 2004 as James Ernest's Totally Renamed Spy Game (with many more cards), then reissued again in 2016 as Before I Kill You, Mister Spy...

Expansions Sailor Moon Crystal: Dice Challenge – Season III
Button Men Originals

Each player selects one of the 24 included Sailor Moon Crystal series characters to play, either randomly (by drawing from the face-down deck of character cards) or purposefully. You and an opponent use your selected characters to battle each other in several rounds of combat. During the game, both of you are rolling a number of polyhedral dice and trying to use the numbers rolled to capture your opponent’s dice and gain points. The winner gains a victory point while the defeated character powers up and becomes an even stronger opponent! The first person to win three rounds wins the game (best 3 out of 5).

There's also the option to play the game using teams when you have more than two players, either through single combat teams or in tag-team combats. To accommodate an unlimited number of players at an anime/gaming/fandom convention, local game store/cafe, or any large gathering of family and friends, additional tournament rules are provided.

Everything needed to begin your dice battles is included in one box:
• 24 character cards, each featuring a hero or villain from the Sailor Moon Crystal series
• 24 polyhedral dice - four coloured sets of six different dice types
• 55 cardboard die-cut tokens representing special abilities, coins, and victory tokens
• 2 plastic card holders and 2 custom lanyards for social portable play that are ideal for playing at conventions or in other large groups
• 6 challenge cards to advertise that you are ready for a combat challenge, each featuring a super-deformed Sailor Moon Crystal character

The hunter becomes the hunted in The Island of Doctor Lucky. In this tropical spin on Kill Doctor Lucky, you're still competing to kill the old man, but this time you picked a dangerous place to do it. Dodge hazards like the fire pit, the hunting snare, and the hammerhead crabs as you navigate the perilous regions of Isla Fortuna. Find the old man alone, and kill him with whatever you can find: the shark tooth, the elephant gun, the bad dates, or (if you must) your bare hands. Every murder attempt makes you stronger, and if you play your cards right, you can kill Doctor Lucky!

Panic! is a card game of commodity trading between the wealthiest of gentlemen. Players attempt to corner the market for the scarcest commodities while dumping or trading the least valuable. Gameplay is fast and entertaining as the market is constantly shifting and your opponents and continually changing the dynamics of the trading floor.

Panic! includes three games in one box. Bull Market is a bidding game designed by James Ernest, Greg Parsons and Mick Sullivan in which secret information can make or break your day's excursion to the trading floor. Bear Market, designed by James Ernest, is a fast-playing drafting game in which making the best of what comes your way is key. Inside Traders, designed by Jeff Horger, is a trick-taking variant using the same basic concepts.

All of the games rely on a Panic! stage where there is a flurry of dumped commodities when players begin to see what direction the current hand is going.

The box includes ninety commodity suit cards, a value tracking board, and nine commodity tokens.

Note: This game is in German. The game itself is language independent. English rules can be found here.

Pairs is the name of the game, and pairs of cards are what players want to avoid.

The game uses a 55-card deck that contains one 1, two 2s, three 3s, and so on up to ten 10s. At the start of the game, shuffle the deck, then remove five cards from play unseen. Deal one card face-up to each player.

Whoever has the lowest card is the first active player. She decides whether to "hit" — that is, be dealt another card — or forfeit the round. If she hits and is dealt a card that doesn't match a card she already has in front of her, then the next player clockwise becomes the active player; if the card does match, then the round ends, she keeps one of these matching cards as penalty points, then everyone else discards their cards and a new round begins with each player being dealt a card.

If the active player forfeits, the round ends and she takes the lowest-valued card visible on the table as penalty points, then a new round begins. Penalty cards remain set aside, even if the deck is shuffled to continue play. If a player acquires more penalty points than the predetermined threshold, then the game ends and this player loses. (Alternatively, players can use coins to track scores between games, with the loser paying everyone one coin, paying her score in coins to the player with the lowest score, etc.)

There are many versions of Pairs from Cheapass Games. The base game play is identical, but the artwork (and artist) vary across the versions. Some include special game rules relevant to the theme of the deck. In general, you can find new/experimental/user-submitted rules at the Cheapass website, and many non-English versions of Pairs also include rules for additional games to play with this deck.

Expansion For Kill Doctor Lucky

Description from the publisher:

Doctor J. Robert Lucky wishes to sell his haunted house to a pair of unsuspecting newlyweds from across town — but the ghosts of Lucky Mansion have a different plan. They love Doctor Lucky so much, they want him to stay with them forever!

With the Doctor Lucky's Mansion That Is Haunted expansion board, the players are ghosts, so they can move through ceilings, walls, and floors! Any two rooms are connected as long as they share an edge, not just a corner. Players can see from their current room into all the connected rooms, but no farther. What's more, the board contains three secret portals that connect two rooms, represented by duplicate objects (the raven, globe, and portrait); you can move through these portals, but you can't see through them.

This game board can be folded in half to create different play spaces with at most 4-5 players in the game, or the entirety of it can be used for games with up to eight. Whenever the number of players is close to the upper limit of the board, you should probably play with the Cat; if the board seems too roomy, you should add the Dog instead.
