One of the many space gates left behind by the ancient aliens only known as the ‘Nameless’ was recently activated. The smartest scientific minds in the galaxy have come to the conclusion that once you enter the gate, you only have a limited amount of time before it shuts down again.

In Stellar Expedition, you and your opponents are the chosen captains that take their spaceships through the mysterious gate and explore the riches that lay beyond. You can choose to represent the half Robot half insect Hive mind of Tognath, the cunning and ruthless Maheri tribes, the spacefaring tree hugging Sky-Lords of Edda or just be a plain old human of the United Nations Explorer Corps.

Each of you will take up missions to gain Expedition points and win the most prestige with your superiors back home. But you won’t be able to complete the missions on your own. Once through the gate, you will have to befriend the locals and assemble the best crew to overcome the dangers of this unexplored part of space.



Explore, recruit crew members, build embassies, acquire resources and go back through the gate before is closes again.

The game is played over 8 different rounds. Whoever brings home the most Expedition points at the end will win this space race!

Heroes of the Shire brings gameplay from some of the best MMORPGs to the board game table, to create the ultimate combat-focused fantasy adventure for 1-6 players! Players cast spells, abilities and learn combos to defeat their enemies. With 20 characters, 12 bosses, and over 800 spells and abilities, no 2 games will ever be the same.



Heroes of the Shire's Arena Mode is played over a series of rounds until you have defeated your enemies by reducing their health points (HP) to 0. During each round, players take turns casting spells from their mastery or character boards.



The final game will include a cooperative scenario mode.

Welcome to Armonia, a new game in the Sagani universe that answers an unresolved question from the previous game: "What is the origin of the harmonious melodies forged into the sound discs that awaken the spirits of nature?"

Turns out that the answer is you, because in Armonia, you play as the children of nature — cute little gnomes, furry yetis, jumping cyc-hops, and wet but happy octis — and follow various landscapes and paths through the wilderness to discover the best and most melodious tones and harmonies, then forge those new-found melodies into sound discs by completing tasks in the Temple of the Clouds, where their true Armonious magic unfolds!

In game terms, each turn you roll the dice, rolling up to three times, with the dice allowing you to initiate and complete several movements and tasks with your sound discs each roll along the paths to the Temple of the Clouds. Your ultimate goal is to complete the final tasks of four of the Temple tiles. Whoever does this first wins.

3 Whole Days of Juicy, Paxy content, delivered fresh to your home begins NOW! 🍑🍑🍑

Glory is an accessible RPG-style dry-erase game about bravery, goals, and fate. 20 points of glory win you the game, earned by defeating monsters and completing quests. But: the more glory you gain, the harder the game becomes. You have to gear up, be smart... and work with the vicissitudes of chance.

You'll start near the central castle where you can buy goods and heal up. But those outer towns aren't going to save themselves, to say nothing of the lairs hiding dangerous monsters. Each turn you'll roll & move, add modifiers from cards, choose direction, and maybe expend health to march a little further. Turns are short, until someone takes a battle.



Character sheets are a major play area unto themselves, with dry-erase tracking, notes, and lots of cards (Ability, Goods, Fate). The hero you choose will determine your playing experience, whether you want to never roll a "1" (choose the Sprite) or like to have some extra punch for those critical moments (choose the Warlock). There are 9 heroes all told.



This is the second edition, with roughly 60% extra content compared to the first edition. The new material benefits from community feedback from the original game.
