Today we are going to talk about Evil High Priest!
Recruit in the Lovecraftian universe, from 2 to 5 players for 40 to 90 minutes, and win the most victory points!
Evil High Priest is a worker-placement game in which the players take the part of priests of a Lovecraftian entity. All players worship the same Great Old One, but they are emphatically not allies.
When they awaken their Great Old One, he will decide which among them is the best (based on VPs) and appoint that priest, and that priest only, to be the High Priest, who wins.
The game contains cards, cardboard tokens, and multiple different boards - each player has an inner sanctum, plus a priest board to manage his sect. In addition there is a town board, representing Lovecraft country; a ritual board, representing magic spells; and a cult board, representing the Great Old One you seek to release.
The game is performed in Action phases. the players take turns moving their cultists to activate various sites on the different boards, gathering resources, summoning monsters, shattering Elder Signs, and launching investigator raids (which attack all players). When all players run out of cultists, the Action phase ends, and players recover their cultists, freeing up the board sites for the next Action phase.
Victory is determined when the last Elder Sign blocking your Great Old One is shattered, and at this point everyone totes up points. Different resources are worth different amounts, but the most valuable are the Elder Signs.
Driving the game are the player's need to recruit more cultists & gather more resources, balanced against his need to shatter Elder Signs and protect himself against the deadly investigator raids.
Unusual among worker placement games, the cult board can be swapped out between games, for a different experience.
The Cthulhu cult board does not play the same as the Black Goat cult board, and they require different tactics and planning.
Today we are going to talk about Speed Color Team!
Add color to your challenges, as a team for 10 minutes, by completing the objectives!
Place a line of uncolored face cards in front of each team and the markers in the center of the table in the game box.
As a team, discover the cards with the colors to be made, memorize them, then try to reproduce them all together.
How ? By coloring the black white cards of your line before the other players.
Take the markers corresponding to the colors corresponding to those you need to restore colors to the card in front of you.
And since remembering colors and coloring is child's play, we add a little difficulty. ;)
We will add team challenges in a limited time, not to mention the markers whose color is not indicated anywhere!
It will therefore be necessary to communicate on the colors found and coordinate to use other colors while they are already used either by his teammates or by the players of the opposing team...
Who will be able to combine team challenge and communication to color the team cards as quickly as possible?
You can either play with one card in front of each team or several to spice up the game. ;)
The first team to finish coloring the cards in front of them or the most cards wins the game!
No time to bubble, solo or in duo for 20 minutes, form your combos to win the game!
Line them all up!
In Bubblee Pop, players compete to save the Bubblees by lining up three of them horizontally or vertically.
Once lined up, the Bubblees give the player points and trigger special powers.
If you stack them the wrong way, you risk losing the game immediately.
Once the reversible board is installed between the two players, 3 black Bubblees take place on each of the players' planets.
It is then the Sky which is set up by the standard installation of colored Bubblees, so that two identical colors are not adjacent.
It's up to you to pop the Bubblees by assembling them by color and in groups of 3 or more via gravity which makes them fall 2 by 2 on your planet.
When things go wrong, powers are triggered and victory points are accumulated.
Fill the sky by drawing Bubblees from the bag. The active player may eventually swap 2 adjacent Bubblees in the sky before obligatorily causing 2 to fall, horizontally or vertically adjacent.
These Bubblees, once they land, if they form an alignment (not diagonal) of 3 or more of the same color, are removed and placed in the scoring area.
This triggers a power depending on the color, a power that remains optional:
- Swap bubbles on your planet or the opposing planet;
- Send a Bubblee or drop one from the sky at his opponent;
- Finally, recover an uncovered Bubblee from his planet and place it in his score zone.
- Black Bubblees, on the other hand, have no powers. Finally, any holes left by the bursts are filled by making the Bubblees "fall" from above.
A single player mode is available where the objective is to empty the opposing planet which starts in a filling state indicated by the level chosen. There are 20 of increasing difficulty.
The only difference in the rules is that when a cluster of 3 Bubblees forms, you can choose to send one (see 2 if the combination is 4 or more Bubblees) to the neighboring planet, keeping the d column. origin before deciding to use the power.
The Black Bubblees are then obstacles that may be the only ones left on the otherwise emptied planet.
Measure yourself against your opponent and try either to get out of the tower or to prevent your opponent from fleeing in 10 to 20 minutes as a duo!
Shy Monsters (Mutlose Monster) is an asymmetrical bluffing game for two players in which one player builds a dungeon and his opponent tries to escape from it.
The Dungeon Master leads a band of timid monsters.
Make sure to respect their favorite places in the dungeon, otherwise they won't attack the hero.
The Hero must decipher the structure of the dungeon well and use his special actions wisely to get out of it alive.
With Quadropolis; to your constructions to create the most optimized city in 30 to 60 minutes for 2 to 4 players, then to your constructions!
Each player builds their own metropolis in Quadropolis, but they compete with each other for shops, parks, utilities, and other structures to place there.
The game lasts four rounds, and in each round players first arrange the tiles for the appropriate round randomly on a 5x5 grid.
Each player has four architects numbered from 1 to 4 and during a turn, a player places an architect next to a row or column in the grid, claims the tile that is as far as the number of the placed architect (e.g. the fourth tile in for architect #4), places that tile in the appropriately numbered row or column on the player's 4x4 city board, then claims all resources associated with the tile (inhabitants or energy).
After four rounds, the game ends. Players can move dwellers and energy between their tiles at any point in the game to see how to maximize their score.
At the end of the game, they then score for each of the six building types based on how well their city was built – as long as they have activated the buildings with dwellers or energy as needed.
With Joraku we will literally “Go to Kyoto” in 45 minutes for 3 to 4 Daimyo, so get your swords!
Joraku, an ancient Japanese word commonly used before the Edo period, which means "to go to Kyoto".
Specifically, during the Sengoku period, Joraku refers to the act of local warlords - the Daimyo marching their armies towards Kyoto, to "protect the Shogun and the Emperor from other rogue lords" and ultimately rule in their stead. .
Onward to Kyoto!
Take command of your army and defeat all the Daimyos that block the way!
March on! To victory! March on! Kachidoki!
Joraku is a zone control game that takes turns.
Outsmart your opponents with tactical card play, use your loyal samurai to take control of areas and boost your prestige.
Only the Daimyo with the highest reputation and the biggest stick can rule Japan!
Each troop is organized into one or more units.
Each game turn is divided into two player sub-turns.
Each player can perform a movement phase, a non-active lateral reaction movement phase, a forced march phase and a combat phase.
All units can move in the movement phase, but must pass the activity test in the reaction and forced march phase.
Combat result by CRT firepower and two dice.
The winner is determined by victory points.
Victory points are provided by capturing a castle, destroying enemy units, and controlling Kyoto, the former capital of Japan.
