Meduris: Der Ruf der Götter

Description from the publisher:

Following the call of the gods, the players settle at the base of mountain Meduris. Building huts, bringing offerings to the druid, gathering precious runestones, and building monumental temples is the only way to earn the favor of the gods in Meduris.

1. Skillful use of the workers lets you obtain valuable materials. These are needed to build huts and temples.

2. The larger the settlement,the more expensive it is to build a hut there. But if you can get in the good graces of the druid by presenting an offering, then your effort pays off.

3. Keep an eye on the other players: Who will secure the best building sites at the right time, and collect the most valuable rune stones?

4. Only a player who skillfully places their huts and temples, and keeps enough materials ready for the big final round of offerings, will win the game.

Meadow

Meadow

Meadow is an engaging set collection game with over two hundred unique cards containing hand-painted watercolor illustrations. In the game, players take the role of explorers competing for the title of the most skilled nature observer. To win, they collect cards with the most valuable species, landscapes, and discoveries. Their journey is led by passion, a curiosity of the world, an inquiring mind, and a desire to discover the mysteries of nature. The competition continues at the bonfire where the players race to fulfill the goals of their adventures.

In this medium-weight board game for 1-4 players, you take turns placing path tokens on one of the two boards. Placing a token on the main board allows the player to get cards, but playing them requires meeting certain requirements. Playing a token on the bonfire board activates special actions (which helps to implement a chosen strategy) and gives the opportunity to achieve goals that provide additional points. Throughout the game, players collect cards in their meadow and surroundings area. At the end, the player with the most points on cards and on the bonfire board wins.

Meadow also includes envelopes with additional cards to open at specific moments…

Mayhem: Teen Titans Go!

Mayhem: Teen Titans Go!

Mayhem: Teen Titans Go!

The Teen Titans fight amongst themselves in Teen Titans GO! Mayhem, with each team racing to be the first to collect 5 victory points (VP).

Teen Titans GO! Mayhem is built around the “Mayhem System”, a system for character vs. character team-based combat in which the most direct method for a team to gain VP is by KOing their opponents. Characters use items and powers to battle the enemy team, with battle damage changing each round based on the mayhem die. All of the Titans have a power that directly attacks their opponents, either through an attack or through fire tokens. Fire tokens deal damage equal to the mayhem die, just like a regular attack, but deal their damage at the beginning of each round.

When a character is KOed, they are removed from the board and their opponent gains VPs, with the KOed character returning to play next round.

When you’re not fighting, you use teamwork to complete missions from the special GO! deck for a chance to gain VPs.

Erik Killmonger’s oath of vengeance against the Wakandan king’s bloodline has fallen on T’Challa, the current Black Panther.

To that end, he seeks to radicalize the population against their king, smuggling weapons and mercenaries into the country in preparation for a vast uprising that would place Killmonger on the throne.

But the Black Panther has allies in the form of Princess Shuri and the Winter Soldier. Shuri’s weapons and gadgets can turn the tide in any battle, and no one knows more about fighting a subversive campaign than the Winter Soldier. Yet, even this formidable trio will be hard-pressed to prevent Killmonger’s master plan.

As the war for the heart of Wakanda unfolds, only the most skilled and most daring will rise in defense of the throne!

Marvel United: Guardians of the Galaxy Remix

Marvel United: Guardians of the Galaxy Remix

Marvel United: Guardians of the Galaxy Remix

The Guardians of the Galaxy have made a name for themselves traveling the stars, fighting for the helpless, righting wrongs, and occasionally wronging a few rights. But, by and large, their good deeds outshine the bad, and Ronan the Accuser has had enough! The Guardians have interfered with Ronan’s people, the Kree, in their self-proclaimed righteous wars for the last time!

Ronan ranks among the most formidable villains the Guardians have ever faced, and his master plan is as simple as can be: put an end to the Guardians permanently. In personal combat, even the trio of Star-Lord, Rocket Raccoon, and Groot have little chance against The Accuser wielding his godlike Universal Weapon. They must scramble their way from star to star, helping where they can, and thwarting Ronan’s minions wherever possible.

No place is safe for the Guardians so long as Ronan hounds their tracks. Their only hope is to gather enough strength to finally defeat Ronan, or frustrate his plans long enough to give up the hunt. Either way, the Guardians of the Galaxy are in a race against time!
