International Game Fair 2020 at Cannes
Hello everyone!

The gathering of international gamers, publishing houses, news from the gaming world!
Enough to make great discoveries and play until the end of the night for several days!
Who will win the ace of gold this year?
If you go through Cannes at this time, it's free for the public and there are different environments for the family, video games, virtual reality and of course board games. ;)
Board games in the beginning
Once upon a time, 3000 years ago in Egypt, we were already playing board games.
With the game of 20 squares, you had to advance your pawn by trying to block your opponent on a board containing 20 squares.
It was subsequently made more difficult by the Persian Chalran in the 5th century.
The hierarchy of the pieces then allows more advanced tactics and game bases.
As early as 600 AD, the first chess players appear in the texts thanks to their Indian ancestor the chaturanga.
The Egyptians are part of the people who like to play board games.
You may recognize a game that everyone knows ... Mehen is the ancestor of the game of goose.
The progression is also done with pawns (lions, lionesses and 36 marbles) on a board.
Then appears the ancestor of backgammon, the seneth.
A tactical game where you have to advance your pawns on the board and reach the thirtieth square without getting your pawns caught or falling into traps.

Good day and good game ;)
In Ascalon's Fury, the goal is to find the exit from a maze.
The quest consists of a puzzle and six puzzles placed in three envelopes which must be opened one after the other starting with envelope 1.
The solution to each puzzle relates to the correct position and location for each of the three rotating pieces and a clue to the shield you will need at the end to secure your exit from the maze.
Start by assembling the puzzle on the rectangular shape of the poster. Read it and analyze the notebook.
When the puzzle is completed, you can open envelope 1 and read the first riddle carefully.
When the puzzle and riddles are solved, fold the poster once over the puzzle and carefully turn it over to check the back of the complete puzzle.
Open the poster and hold the red filter near the back of the puzzle to check if the position of the small puzzles is correct.
For each puzzle, there are two clue cards. You can use them however you want. Use the red filter provided to read the contents.
Start by opening the “A” card if you need a little help.
Use card “B” to guide you to the solution.
The clue cards do not contain the answers; they simply guide you in the right direction.
Good day and good game ;)
You will find the complete answers in the PDF below.

2 words game Michel Strogoff
Hello everyone !
Today we are going to talk about Michel Strogoff!
In Michel Strogoff, succeed in transmitting the Tsar's mail, from 1 to 4 players of 45 minutes from 12 years old, to prevent the fall of Irkutsk!
Russia, late 19th century. Colonel Ivan Ogareff, a traitor to his homeland, allied himself with the Tartars to invade the empire.
The Tsar asked his bravest couriers to go as quickly as possible to Irkutsk in order to warn his brother, the Grand Duke, of the danger which is about to sweep over him...
The cards are the main element of the game and represent all the different aspects of the novel: the dangers of the journey, the allies you will meet, the experience you will gain, and even the movements of the traitor Ivan Ogareff.
The game plays in quick rounds. Each player takes their entire turn, then the next player takes their entire turn clockwise.
When all the players have taken their turn, it is up to the villain of the story, Ivan Ogareff, to take action; he is represented in the game by the cardboard Traitor figurine which is always placed to the right of the first player.
The process is repeated until one player achieves victory by reaching the 11th space of the journey, Irkutsk, and defeating the traitor; or until Ivan Ogareff successfully invades Russia, defeating all players or entering Moscow with the Tartars.
Each complete round consists of the couriers phase and the traitor phase.
During the couriers phase, the player after asking (or not) for help from an ally, can choose either to advance, to rest or to face dangers.
Once all players have completed the Couriers Phase, Ivan Ogareff is then activated.
During this phase, Ogareff advances, the Tartars move, and other effects occur, such as the arrival or departure of allies who help the players, or the activation of abilities.
During the game, certain characters will move in and out of the story setting, potentially helping players with their special abilities.
At the start of his turn, a player can, if he wishes, discard an Action card from his hand (or two cards for Captain Strogoff) and activate the ability of an ally.
Only an Action card showing the portrait of one of the allies present on the board can be discarded to activate this character's ability.
If Ivan Ogareff reaches the end of his journey, place his pawn on the Irkutsk space.
From this moment on, when a Traitor Phase begins, no Action cards are drawn. Instead, roll the action die and the players activate their abilities based on the result of the die, then the Tartars advance towards Moscow the number of squares indicated by the action die.
If they enter the capital, their invasion of Russia succeeds and the players lose the game.
During his turn, if a player advances and enters square 11 of the course, Irkutsk, he does not draw a Road card, but instead begins the final duel with Ogareff which will end in victory or death!
After having eliminated all his Road cards, and if he has not lost all his energy, the player must now face Ivan Ogareff.
One by one, he must draw and then overcome as many Irkutsk Road cards as indicated by the zone in which the Ivan Ogareff pawn is located (from 3 to 5 cards).
For each card drawn, an Action card must be played from the player's hand with a corresponding icon, or lose 1 energy point. Then we move on to the next card if the player's Energy token has not reached zero.
If a player reaches zero energy, regardless of the situation, they die and are eliminated from the game.
The Irkutsk cards that were part of the confrontation are discarded (the other players can memorize the cards; knowing that they will not have to face them can help them).
The rest of the players continue to play normally. If the Irkutsk draw pile becomes exhausted, reshuffle the discarded cards.
If, after facing all the required Irkutsk cards, you have at least one energy point left, you have successfully defeated the traitor!
Good day and good game ;)
