Unboxing the Small Stout Box

Our very own Tavis Parker did this unboxing video to show off our new Small Stout Box. The game featured in the video is Four Tribes by Jason Glover at Grey Gnome Games and the box (and game) are gorgeous!

Strip Chit

Good things come in small packages. Sometimes you just need a long thin chit, and the Strip Chit will suit that need perfectly! They are 3 inches long and 1 inch wide. Click here to learn more.
