Nyctophobia
Welcome to the experiential table top game that is going to redefine what it means to play a game. Nyctophobia, which means “fear of the dark”, is a cooperative game of survival in which up to four players must work together to escape a maniacal predator chasing them in a pitch-black forest. But there’s a wrinkle: Would-be survivors play the game with blackout glasses. Players cannot see the board and have to rely on touch to navigate their way to safety. So, are you afraid of the dark?
Lord of the Rings – The Card Game
The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game is a cooperative adventure game in which the players attempt to complete a scenario, each with three heroes of their choice and a deck of allies, events and attachments to support them. Each round, players send their heroes and allies to quest or to fight with enemies that engage them. However, as the heroes and allies exhaust after questing, defending, or attacking, the players’ options are typically insufficient to deal with everything at once. Therefore, players need to determine whether it is more urgent to quest and make progress in the scenario while the enemy forces gain power, or to take down enemies while making no progress, not knowing what will come next.

Azul

Ra
Ra is an auction and set-collection game with an Ancient Egyptian theme. Each turn players are able to purchase lots of tiles with their bidding tiles (suns). Once a player has used up his or her suns, the other players continue until they do likewise, which may set up a situation with a single uncontested player bidding on tiles before the end of the round occurs. Tension builds because the round may end before all players have had a chance to win their three lots for the epoch. The various tiles either give immediate points, prevent negative points for not having certain types at the end of the round (epoch), or give points after the final round. The game lasts for three “epochs” (rounds). The game offers a short learning curve, and experienced players find it both fast-moving and a quick play.

In short, when the eyes, brain and mouth don’t agree, things get tricky.

Collide-O!
Collide-O! is a fast-playing game in which players race to put down all of their cards by matching two colored sections of the card being played to either card at the end of the line. As each card is played, the possibilities of what can be played change, so being fast is important. Because of the multicolor sections on many cards, there are numerous combinations, so flipping your cards over to check whether either side can match is advantageous.
Ifs & Butts
This party game is played over an agreed-upon number of rounds. During each round, an “If” scenario is read aloud; for example, “If you needed to break the ice on a date, what would you say?” Every player except the reader writes a response and gives it to the reader, who chooses one to read to the group. Each player besides the reader then writes down who he thinks wrote that response. The correct guessers get points, and the process is repeated for each response.
