Heliana & Ryoko’s Guide to Mythozoology
I always think that every TTRPG could use more creatures, monsters, and animals. The real world is full of weird and unique animals, and your fantasy setting should be, too. And these duel tomes have more than 400 pages worth of new critters to add to your world.
Mythozoology unites two of the greatest D&D supplements of all time for one brand new, realm-shaking expansion! Two 400+ page tomes bursting with incredible new monsters, deadly adventures, and inspirational player options. Forgotten Monsters and Forbidden Myths ushers in a new era of heart-stopping hunts, indomitable heroes, and game-enhancing mechanics, for both 5e (2014) and 5.5e (2024).
Yotei
This is a cozy, beautiful, and lovingly hand-crafted game of appreciating all that Mt. Yotei has to offer. It utilizes a fairly simple game mechanic of playing tokens and matching symbols on cards. And players work to collect the most charms and build the most charming town at the base of the mountain.
Mt. Yotei is one of Japan’s 100 famous mountains, which many hikers aspire to climb at least once in their lives. The beautiful surroundings inspired the team at Kumagera so much, they decided to make a game about it, and so Yotei, the machi-building game of forests, mountains, and potatoes was born.
STCG – Ragnarok
This brand new game system combines classic card games and technology to streamline your game experience. With this, players can focus on playing while the electronics worry about keeping score. Mixing tech into previous low-tech games will always be a little contentious for some. But I know at least a few people who would think this is very neat. And for them – and maybe you-, the STCG and Ragnarok may be their new favorite game.
Meet STCG, a next generation smart tabletop TCG built for pure, focused play. Where classic tabletop meets digital precision. NFC auto-reading cards and an automatic scoring system keeps all rules inside the gameboard – so you stay immersed in the game, not the bookkeeping.
One Of Us Will Die
This is a dramatic, narrative, and character-driven, tragic game where everyone knows that by the end of the game, someone’s character will die. The game will work equally well in any setting or genre, so you can just as easily run this as a horror game or as a mystery, sci-fi, or drama.
One of Us Will Die is a fast, tense, and emotionally-charged tabletop roleplaying game where one player begins the game knowing their character will die, and the others must uncover the truth before the final scene. The game uses minimal math, archetype-driven character sheets, and world-building questions to build a unique story every time. The focus is pure narrative: drama, moral tension, and character conflict.
Mars Attacks: The Board Game
It’s a Mars Attacks! board game. That’s the entire pitch. Are you the kind of person who saw those specific little alien faces and said “ack ack ack!” quietly to yourself? Then this game is for you. Invade Earth, get your hands on a power core, and complete your hostile takeover.
It starts with an invasion!
Be the first Martian to collect a power core and return to base camp to win. The Core Edition delivers fast-paced, playfully chaotic fun right out of the box. With 4 Martian and 5 soldier punch out characters, 20 game tiles made from sturdy chit board, 12 punch out tokens, 24 Action Cards, 12 Combat Cards, 8 Flip-2-Win cards and 3 dice you’ll be ready for conquest!
