Similo: The Lord of the Rings is a cooperative deduction game where all players work together to identify a secret card using a series of Clues!
This new The Lord of the Rings edition of the critically acclaimed deduction game comes with a deck of 39 big cards beautifully illustrated by Naïade, showing the portrait and the name of a series of characters from Middle-earth.
Fans will try to guess a secret character from Middle-earth among the twelve displayed on the table. They’ll be assisted by the Clue Giver, who plays cards from their hand as clues, to suggest which cards they should remove.
For example, if the Secret Card is Frodo Baggins™, you could play Éowyn™, to suggest to the Guessers that the characters to remove are humans, female, or Rohirrim™. Or, you might play Saruman™, to point out that the characters to remove are wizards, villainous characters, or have white hair… it will be up to the Guessers to understand what the Clue Giver is trying to suggest!
You can also mix and match different versions by using one deck for the characters and the other for the Clues… will you guess which character has something in common with Hermione Granger, Albus Dumbledore, and Ron Weasley from Similo: Harry Potter?

Decktective: Nightmare in the Mirror is a co-operative investigation game, featuring a 3D crime scene. Players must solve a mysterious case. They play their cards to share information, discard cards that they think will lead them the wrong way, discuss the clues they find with the other players, make hypotheses and deductions to find the solution! At the end of the game, players must answer several questions: Each correct answer is worth points. The more points they get, the better their outcome.
On their turn, players either play a card from their hand and put it face up on the table, sharing the information on it or they discard a card from their hand face down to the archive and are not allowed to talk about the information on it, until the end of the investigation. Each card has a value from 1 to 10 in the upper left corner. A card can be played face up on the table only if its value is equal to or less than the current number of cards in the archive.

Icaion is an Engine Territory Building, Resource Management eurogame designed by Martino Chiacchiera and Marta Ciaccasassi.
The game is set in the regions around the giant crystal on the surface of Icaion, the planet below the clouds from which the floating islands of Mysthea detached millennia ago.
In Icaion you become a Seeker, an expert adventurer, sent out by the Organization to hunt for treasures, Qoam, relics and artifacts from ancient times. Beware, in the farthest lands from the City a titanic being lurks, moving relentlessly while spreading an illness all over the world. This Colossus has been a mystery for the people of Icaion and you will inevitably cross its path.

Expansion | Bonsai: Vigorous Growth and Specialists |
The Japanese term "bonsai" means "planted in a pot".
A bonsai is a living work of art, a perfect miniature plant, identical in all respects to its full-size simile, but several times smaller.
In Bonsai, players take on the role of expert bonsai masters intent on growing their own bonsai.
Whoever grows the best plant will be appointed to show their Bonsai at the Imperial gardens.
On your turn, choose and perform one of these two actions: meditate or cultivate.
If you meditate, choose one of the face up cards on the board and take it, along with any Bonsai tiles represented below the card you draw.
If you cultivate, you can place in your Bonsai the tiles which are in your personal supply. You can place as many tiles as the total symbols depicted on your Seishi tile and any or all of your Growth cards. Each symbol will let you place one tile of the corresponding type.
During the turn in which your bonsai matches or exceeds the requirements of a Goal tile that is still in the middle of the table (i.e., the Goal tile has not been claimed yet by any player), you must immediately choose whether you want to claim that tile or if you want to renounce it in order to try to achieve a harder Goal tile.
When the last card from the deck is revealed, the game end is triggered. Each tile in your bonsai is worth a certain number of points.
In the solo game you can try the Additional Scenarios that change some rules and goals, and eventually try to beat the Emperor Challenge.

Calling all units! A serious theft has occurred!
The thief is hiding in one of the buildings. Police helicopters are patrolling between buildings to track and stop the escape. Will the police arrest the thief, or will the thief escape?
In more detail, at the start of the game the board is set up with 25 3D buildings that can be lifted to put the thief's car under. In the thief's turn all police players must close their eyes while the thief moves their car to under an adjacent building. Then in the police turn they open their eyes and can perform 1 of 2 possible actions each: move or search. While moving the helicopter moves to an adjacent crossing. While searching the helicopter may look under an adjacent building.
The police players collectively win if they find the thief within the 11 rounds. The thief wins if they stay hidden for 11 rounds.

This new Wizarding World edition of the critically acclaimed deduction game comes with a deck of 39 big cards beautifully illustrated by Naïade, showing the portrait and the name of a series of characters from the Harry Potter universe.
Fans will try to guess a secret character from the Wizarding World among the twelve displayed on the table. They’ll be assisted by the Clue Giver, who plays cards from their hand as clues, stating whether they are similar to or different from the secret character.
For example, the Clue Giver must lead the Guessers to identify Rubeus Hagrid. They could play Albus Dumbledore vertically, to imply that the Secret Character has a beard, works at Hogwarts School, or helps Harry Potter in many situations. Or, they might play Bellatrix Lestrange horizontally, to point out that the Secret Character is not a villain and it’s not a woman… it will be up to the Guessers to understand what the Clue Giver is trying to suggest!
You can also mix and match different versions by using one deck for the characters and the other for the Clues… will you guess which character has something in common with The Headless Horseman, the Werewolf, and the Ghost from Similo: Spookies?
