$54.99

In an ancient world forgotten by time, enormous titans terrorize the land. The five tribes have been fleeing from the titans for centuries, but things are about to change. Growing kingdoms pledge to end the reign of terror, determined to take on the titans and make the world a safer place for all. Each kingdom competes to attract the tribes, eager for the strength of the combined peoples, who are now leaving behind old traditions with the hope that the titans can be defeated once and for all.

 

In The Ancient World, players compete to grow the largest and most influential kingdom by managing citizens, treasury, military and defeating titans. Players take turns sending citizens to take special actions or using military cards to attack titans.  Players also purchase Empire cards to add strength and abilities to their kingdom.

The Witcher Adventure Game

Witcher$59.95

The Witcher Adventure Game takes players on a journey across the world of The Witcher, a detailed world, rich in lore and characters, fleshed out by Andrzej Sapkowski’s famous series of novels, and honed by The Witcher video game trilogy.

 

Players assume the roles of four distinct characters from this series: Geralt of Rivia, monster slayer? Triss Merigold, cunning sorceress? Yarpen Zigrin, dwarven warrior? and Dandelion, roguish bard. Each character has unique skills and multiple ways of overcoming obstacles, but you decide what to do during the game: Do you fight your way to victory, call on your charm, or try your hand at diplomacy? You can bring enemies around to your point of view with a sword as Geralt – or bribe them with gold and threaten to call on powerful friends as Dandelion. If a situation calls for strength in numbers, Yarpen has his own fellowship of dwarves to command, and Triss can rely on her expert skill with magic to save the day.

Dungeon Venture

$49.90

You stand before Velkan the White, the world’s most powerful Archmage. “Welcome, heroes” he says. “You have been chosen to defend the weak and to battle the darkness. You now serve the forces of the Light!”

Dungeon Venture for short, is a fast, simple game of dungeon adventuring, where brave heroes undergo a quest to foil the schemes of the Evil Keeper.

During the game one of the players will be the Evil Keeper and will try to defeat the other players using their Heroes. To win, the Heroes, with their spells and powerful equipment, must destroy the Boss and all the Monsters in the dungeon. If they fail, the Evil Keeper wins.

The objectives and conditions of victory are different for every Quest. It’s possible to play the Campaign mode to have longer and more exciting games.
