Valentina: The Game – Tutto Crepax Vol. 1 includes 96 color tiles and 16 subject cards featuring the art of Guido Crepax with two memory-style games included in the rules:
• In "Crazy Valentina" all players simultaneously try to find the six color tiles comprising their subject card in the pile of face-down tiles placed in a 12x8 grid. The first who finishes wins.
• In "Valentina Memory", players in turn search for color tiles, trying to find the six needed to cover their subject card.
The suggested age is not for the complexity of the games, but for the topics.

Soqquadro is an innovative party game in which what's happening away from the table is as important as what's happening on it.
The game takes place in real-time. Each player draws a card from a deck and searches for an object that satisfies the request on the card. (The cards come in three colors to identify their difficulty level.) When he finds it, he places it on the table, moves his pawn on the score path, then draws another card. When a pawn passes over a Challenge Line for the first time, the game stops for a while and a Challenge is played. The game ends when a pawn first reaches or crosses box 16 on the score path.

Expands | Dungeon Fighter |
Dungeon Fighter: The Big Wave is the second of four expansions for use with Dungeon Fighter, each themed to one of the four elements: air, earth, wind and fire.
This expansion includes new monsters and equipment, a new pirate hero, new maps with special rooms, and Cthulhu as the Boss. As in a fantasy role-playing game, players can accumulate experience points, then use them for power cards that allow for devastating water powers, such as the "Major Healing" spell — but beware the new monster choking ability! You'll have to fight them off by using the three small elemental dice to make new "impossible" die rolls...

1969 is a push-your-luck style game in which players take the role of the leader of a particular nation's space program attempting the first successful lunar landing mission.
Each turn, players use their income to hire scientists to research technology to improve their chances, hire spies to slow other players down, purchase cards to influence their missions and their competitors, or attempt easier, preparatory missions. Players gain victory points for performing well on prep missions, attracting famous scientists to their cause, and of course, how far they got on the moon landing mission.
The core of the game are the mission tests, which consist of rolling five dice. Dice have success, neutral, and failure results, which add to your success rating, do nothing, or subtract from your success rating respectively. The total of your successes will determine the points earned from the mission and whether you'll get a bonus on the final lunar mission. Die rolls can be affected by technology and your success can be affected by having scientists researching relevant techs and card play (from a player or their opponents).
1969 combines simple dice mechanics with elements of resource management and even some light engine building to make an interesting light weight experience. There are some mechanics of player interference (meaning players can disrupt each other's progress) but these elements may be avoided if desired.

Horse Fever transports players to a setting based on the noir novels of the 1930s, where each player is called on to impersonate rich bettors that will use any means necessary to cause the bets they place to pay off. They will fix races, bribe bookmakers, make horses fall asleep, buy stables and borrow money from the Mob in order to gain victory for their bets.
Horse Fever has three different game modes: Board Game, Family Game and Party Game. These three different modes enable each kind of player to have a good time. The Board Game will enable expert players to discover a game based on an endless number of strategies; the Family Game will enable little players and families to get to know the basic game dynamics while playing a simpler but yet just as fun game; the Party Game will transform Horse Fever into a platform for a potentially endless number of players and turn any boring party into the most entertaining event of the century.
