Nominated for the 2015 Spiel Des Jahres (Game of the Year), The Game is a co-operative card game for 1-5 players.

 

In The Game, players will have to work together to play cards into one of four different piles, with the hopes of discarding all 98 cards to win. Each turn, a player must play at least two cards into one or more of the piles and then the player draws as many cards as they played. The next player then takes their turn and play continues until one of the players cannot play the requisite two cards (or one card if the draw pile has been depleted).

ProhisProhis

$14.99

 

In the United States, during the 1920s, the Volstead Act forbids the manufacturing and sale of alcohol. Nevertheless, prohibition is going to represent a gold mine for smugglers who dare to challenge the authorities. From the hooligan to the respected politician, many people have tried their luck on this lucrative market, yet it remains a dangerous activity since the agents of the prohibition; the Prohis, roam around…

 

In Prohis, each player embodies a smuggler who tries to make a fortune by transporting illegal goods – a highly precarious activity since the other players have the opportunity to check your cargo or even seize it if they find suspicious items. You will need to bluff and negotiate to get past the authorities and make your way to fortune otherwise your goods might end up in the wrong hands and you’ll be sorry!

 

3-6 players

Ages 10+
