TGC Community Anthology Coloring Book

The Game Crafter Community Anthology Volume 2 is the second collection of games designed by members of The Game Crafter’s vibrant community for the TGC Community Anthology Coloring Book Competition.

This anthology contains 25 games where the goal is not to just play the games but have fun coloring them as well! There's a ton of themes across the different games: defeat your evil sister with bag-building spell casting, build up a neighborhood in a zoning battle, fill up the garden and score points, create a monster from the lab, put on a fireworks display, escape a glacier, weave worms, and so much more. There's something for everybody.

Each game takes up only two pages, which lay flat for easy play. All the pieces you need are included along with a handy cloth bag for storage.

Pick and choose or play through them all to find your favorites! With play times ranging from under five minutes up to an hour, you’re sure to find something to play with family, friends, or even solo. You may never be bored again!

Thanks to the generosity of the game designers, The Community Anthology 2 is being offered at production cost. That means no mark up, no profit sharing - just 96 pages of fun for as little money as possible. It’s only $1.50 per game!

Check out the complete list of games below:

Contest Winner: RAINBOSIO!

RAINBOSIO! is a quick bag-building game for one player. The goal of the game is to restore the colour back to your garden using your spells! You choose a single flower at the start of the game, and try to restore its petals one by one before your evil twin sister can wither the flower.

Every turn you draw cubes from your bag, and match colours to cast one of your many spells. These spells can help you colour your flower, or manipulate the cubes in your bag so it becomes easier to get matching colours in the future.

Rainbosio looks absolutely stunning on the table. Just looking at it makes you want to dive in and play. Also,a huge plus to the approachability here is the clean rules. I knew how to play after only one read. I started off really excited to play and boy was I surprised once I started playing...in a REALLY REALLY GOOD WAY. This game is simply addicting! I felt like there was so much strategy in the bag building that I didn't even care if I won the flower or not - I was ready to try the next strategy. - Contest Judge Chris Rossetti, Rampage Games

Second Place: Fruit Folly

The fast, fun game of frenzied fruit-fitting! Planting season has begun at Pixel Farm! Growing fruit in the communal garden isn't easy - you have to get lucky with seedlings, ensure they don't dry out and then figure out the optimal planting position in the garden! Only growers of the largest regions of fruit will be rewarded!

For some reason this game just clicked for me and my team on so many levels. There is so much strategy here, both obvious and subtle! I wasn't expecting the hidden seed to add so much strategy, but it really does! I had so much fun with this game. - Contest Judge Chris Rossetti, Rampage Games

Third Place: Teenyville

Teenyville sees two players attempt to buy, develop and increase the value of land to benefit themselves over their opponent. Create a lake and build commercial properties with water views, or devalue your opponent's land with roads, but be careful! You must balance your budget! Earn Victory Points for completing land developments and through special combinations of infrastructure!

A very cleanly presented city builder that looks fantastic on the table. It is overflowing with strategy, uses a clever coloring mechanic and utilizes the components included in a great way. - Contest Judge Chris Rossetti, Rampage Games
