ExoBase

You have landed with 3 other specialists on a distant planet; future home of a new civilization. You've barely set up the core of your base when a proximity alarm sounds — an incoming meteorite storm is on course to obliterate your new base! You might just have time to activate the shield generator...

1 player • 30-60 minutes • Ages 12+

Build a self-sustaining base with a powerful shield generator in the hostile environment of a distant exoplanet, before a coming meteorite storm.

• Each worker is a unique, upgradable character with their own special abilities. Use 4 of 8 included characters in each game for a variety of combinations.
• Mine resources, harvest water, and grow food by adding new modules onto your base.
• Balance your focus between upgrading your base and training your founders in specialized skills.
• To survive, increase your resource production and power up the shield generator before the storm hits!

Full Playthrough:

• Work to gather resources
• Build additions onto your base
• Upgrade locations to produce more resources automatically

Each worker pawn represents one of 8 unique characters; four are used in each game. Upgrade their skills as you play to customize them further.

For a longer, more difficult game, simply flip the Time, Production, and Hazard cards. Be very careful which abilities you take, you'll need most cards to produce resources!

Coats & Hats

A 9-card match-3.

Coats & Hats is a tiny card game packed with coats and hats that need sorting. Match the colour of the items on a rack, while preventing your opponent from doing the same.

Each turn, add a card to the outer edge of the rack; then either use a special ability on a card, or flip your card — there’s a hat on the back of each coat. Group three items of the same colour and you score!

Card Shark Pool

It's like pool, but with cards.

Card Shark Pool is a light-weight, casual card and dice game for two players. Plan your shots using the abilities on the cards, then clear the table.

There are no complex calculations for angle or rebounds. Roll dice based on the length of the shot, and use special abilities on each card to draw, roll, and carom.

Makes a great gift for the pool-lover in your life.
