Panic On Wall Street

Release Date: Nov 2012

Panic on Wall Street players are divided into Managers and Investors. Managers offer for sale shares of societies they are in charge of for as much as possible. Investors attempt to acquire them for as little as possible in order to get the best return possible. After two minutes of negotiation, a roll of the dice brings (sometimes drastic) changes to the economy, with major consequences for the balance sheet of each player. After five rounds of play (5 months), the manager and the investor who have accumulated the most money are each declared victors, the undisputed Masters of Commerce.

Here we go again Asmodee Editions gives you a chance to play as a Pro in the field of the stock market without any real money lose now play against your friend and see if you can make more money then them to gain those bragging rights.

River Dragons

Release Date: Nov 2012

$ 39.99

In Dragon Delta, you want to move your pawn over a system of bridge-like planks to the other side of the board. An easy task! Or at least it would be if everyone were working together, but alas you’re not. Instead you’re all working on your own right next to one another, each convinced that your way is best.

In game terms, players simultaneously select one card from a set of five actions that’s available to each player. The actions allow players to place plank foundations, place planks, move their pawns, cancel other players’ actions, or remove planks or foundation stones. As can be expected for a design with simultaneous action selection, the game is rather chaotic.

The 2012 edition of the game includes a double-sided game board not present in earlier editions.

Any game that gives you a chance to mess with the other players as openly as this one does I want it Asmodee Editions has so many games I want to play check them out and see for yourself.

Archipelago

Release Date: Nov 2012

$ 79.99

Are you ready to take-on your discovery mission to the archipelago? Each player takes on the role of an explorer and their team, mandated by a European nation to discover, colonize and profit from the archipelagos. These missions are supposed to happen diplomatically, by answering the needs of the local population as much as the regular demands from the continent. You’ll have to respect the archipelago and its natives as otherwise, they’ll begin to revolt and that might end up with a war for independence. That’s not taking into account that among you a separatist and a pacifist might be hidden, who will both tip the scales toward revolt or peace, respectively! Archipelago combines exploration, resource management, optimization, cooperation, strategy, negotiation, corruption, commerce, suspicion, alliances and betrayals, even a hint of investigation!

Features:

• Modular game with vast possibilities.

• A semi-cooperative game by Christophe Boelinger (Dungeon Twister, Earth Reborn).

• The possibility of choosing the length of your game – from 30 minutes to 5 hours.

Come check out this ever changing game from Asmodee Editions and see if you can rule a new colony today.
