Double Take

$ 19.95 SRP

Double Take is a charades game built for two, so to speak. Each round, time willing, two players will present clues for a half-dozen familiar phrases that all have something in common. A sample category, for example, is “Something’s Wrong” with the words to be guessed being divided as:

Play | Foul
In the Closet | Skeleton
Sheep | Black
Gun | Smoking

Each clue giver acts out one side of the card, and since they’re facing the guessers, the phrases will be acted out in left-to-right fashion (“Black Sheep”, “Smoking Gun”, etc.) If someone guesses one side of the card, that player scores – but the clue givers score only after both sides of a phrase have been guessed, so they need to work together – but separately – to make their clues clear.

Pass-Ackwords

$ 19.95 SRP

The word is … PASS-ACKWORDS! Each round there is a secret word with a list of clues to help figure it out. On your turn, you announce the worst clue possible off the list to try to disguise the secret word from your opponents. Trouble is, you want YOUR teammate to guess correctly! Each turn, your list of possible clues shrinks while the hints get better and better. First team to guess the word wins the round!

Pluckin Pairs

$ 19.95 SRP

Who will pluck the most popular pairs? Each player gets 60 seconds to pair up 11 images at the same time. 5 pairs and one bad apple! Players gain points by matching the most other players with the same pairs. Test your powers of prediction with this fun family game!

Redshirts

$ 20.00 SRP

Redshirts is a fast paced screw-your-buddies style card game, with simple mechanics and a humorously irreverent take on a certain classic sci-fi television series. Everyone in the Galactic Space Corps knows that the most successful starship Captains go through junior enlisted crewmen like a fat kid goes through cupcakes. In Redshirts, you will: -Assemble and lead an away team of heroic yet disposable characters at a variety of locations. -Examine every mission in detail to determine the crewman with the very best chance to succeed, and then send someone else. -Turn your starship into a slaughterhouse as wave after wave of underlings rush to their death like a pack of lemmings with teleporter technology! Be the first to eliminate every Redshirt on your ship and demonstrate that you have what it takes to lead…from the rear!

Monster Chase

$ 14.99 SRP

Monster Chase is a cooperative game. This means that, instead of competing against each other, the players must unite their forces to beat the monsters. The players win or lose together. The goal of the game is to use your toys to scare all of the monsters back into the closet! Since all of the monsters are only scared of one toy, you will have to choose your toys carefully. If you don’t find the right toy, after 3 tries, you will have to add another monster around the bed. You win if you send all of the monsters to the closet. However… the Monsters win as soon as there are 4 monsters around the bed.

Will you fall victim to a trap set hundreds of years ago, or hold the power to shape the world itself?
