Great adventure, fame, and untold riches — all this is waiting for the Black Hole Buccaneers. In the game, the players' task is to collect ancient collectibles from the orbit of black holes, objects dumped there hundreds of years ago as mankind's chosen place for the final disposal of garbage. Among the 99 cards in the game are artifacts and relics that have powerful effects, as well as toys that are not particularly valuable in the year 2642, but that are in great demand by other species. In exchange, these species offer their help in escaping the black holes into which players will be drawn when the collected space debris exceeds their threshold for release. The player who best manages to master the dangers of outer space after three rounds of the drafting game and collects the most valuable items will win.

Black Hole Buccaneers is a fast-playing drafting game which not only offers new situations and a lot of interaction with other players, but also difficult decisions due to various card effects. In each round, everyone at the table plays one card and passes the remaining cards to their neighbor. Whoever can escape the black hole in the scoring phase of a round gets to score their collected items and thus comes a little closer to victory.

DOS Second Edition is the true sequel to the classic game of UNO. As that game's spiritual successor, DOS Second Edition plays a lot like UNO but with a few twists.

Like UNO, the object of DOS Second Edition is to be the first player to get rid of all your cards, but now there are two discard piles and players are allowed to add two cards together to help empty their hand faster.

On your turn you can play cards from your hand onto one or both discard piles by matching color, number, or symbol. You can also add two cards together to make a number match, but both cards must be the same color (for example, if the top card of a discard pile is a red 7, you can add together a yellow 3 and a yellow 4 and play them together as a 7 on that pile).

Watch out for classic UNO action cards like Skip, Reverse, and Draw 2 as well as the all-new Wild Play 2 card, which forces the next player to play 2 cards on their turn or lose their turn and draw 2 cards as a penalty.

Note: DOS Second Edition is has completely different gameplay than the earlier DOS card game (2018).

Scholars of the South Tigris is set during the height of the Abbasid Caliphate, circa 830 AD. The Caliph has called upon the keenest minds to acquire scientific manuscripts from all over the known world. Players will need to increase their influence in the House of Wisdom, and hire skilled linguists to translate the foreign scrolls into Arabic. In this Golden Age of wisdom and knowledge, be mindful not to neglect one in pursuit of the other.

The aim of Scholars of the South Tigris is to be the player with the most victory points (VP) at the game’s end. Points are gained by translating scrolls, increasing knowledge in various areas of science and mathematics, influencing the 3 guilds, and by retiring translators after their years of faithful service. The game end is triggered once all 4 caliph cards have been revealed.
