Dog Pile: The Story Behind the Paws-itively Fun Card Game
Some dogs love to pile on the cuddles. In Dog Pile, they pile up on the table instead! This fast-paced party card game challenges players to stack dogs, snatch opportunities, and decide just how long to push their luck before claiming a pile (and victory!).
Designed by Neal Hooper, Dog Pile delivers a clever blend of strategy and quick reactions, bringing plenty of excitement to family game night.
Firework Frenzy: From a Game Design Experiment to a Fireworks-Fueled Showdown
What happens when rival fireworks shops will do anything to steal the holiday crowd? In Firework Frenzy, the answer is a chaotic mix of dice rolls, sneaky sabotage, and spectacular comebacks. One lucky roll might save your inventory, while a well-timed action card could leave your biggest rival watching their fireworks go up in smoke.
Designed by Hayden Dille, Firework Frenzy is a fast-paced dice-and-card game that blends luck with strategy.
The Blue-Ribbon Story Behind Escape From Farm
When you hear that a game is “family friendly” and that you get to play as a farm animal, you might assume that it’ll be easy to play…and win. And while it’s true, Escape From Farm does have a simple ruleset that allows you to learn how to play in only a few minutes, the game itself is intended to be challenging.
In fact, you'll often lose your first game…and sometimes you'll lose surprisingly quickly. But that loss tends to have a particular effect: you immediately want to try again.
