  • Candlelight Inquisition

    👥 2–6 Players ⏳ More Than 2 Hours

    A gothic noir, 2d6-based TTRPG designed for a GM and 1–4 seekers, investigators who seek the fading light of truth among the fog of cynical politics and occult conspiracies.

    Created by Will Fish (Black Mouth Cur Gamecraft)

  • Company of Merchants

    👥 3–5 Players ⏳ 30–60 Minutes

    Compete to build the most valuable investment portfolio by influencing the growth of five competing trading companies across an island archipelago.

    Created by Taylor Hall

  • Detritus

    👥 2–4 Players ⏳ 30–60 Minutes

    Detritus is a trick-taking tile laying game. Players will predict which suit will cover more of the board at the start of the hand, and then through must-not-follow trick taking gradually fill in the board until eventually a tile corresponding to a card played has no legal placement, thus ending the hand.

  • Eerie Trails

    👥 3–5 Players ⏳ 30–60 Minutes

    Participate in three ongoing auctions, each having two different blessings you can gain for a spirit — but it may be better to lose an auction than to win it.

    Created by Jonathan Cox & Srinivas Vasudevan (Getting Games)

  • Lakeside

    👥 2–4 Players ⏳ 15–30 Minutes

    Place tiles to build and fish a lake, competing to have the most fishers in each region. Balance the fishers you commit to regions to build majorities while accessing the largest and most lakes. Minutes to learn, but satisfyingly crunchy.

    Created by Jonathan Cox & Taylor Hall (Getting Games)

  • Possessions

    👥 2–4 Players ⏳ 60–90 Minutes

    You are dead, but, for a single hour, the barrier between life and afterlife wears thin. Possess your scions, bending them to your will as you search the family manor, finish unfinished business, and fulfill your final wishes.

    Created by Dan Nichols (Gadabout Games)

  • Press Your Duck

    👥 1–6 Players ⏳ 15–30 Minutes

    The push-and-pull of a press your luck game — with ducks! Should we flip more cards to get more ducks or to collect duck items? Or will the weasel get us? 

    Created by Tommy Kerbow

  • ROCKS

    👥 2 Players ⏳ 15–30 Minutes

    A fast, tactical duel of shifting terrain, tight spaces, and no escape. Trapped in a cave that gets smaller every turn, you’ll reshape the space, shifting positions and closing off paths to trap your opponent. The rules are simple, but the tension builds fast.

    Created by Ryan King (Gadabout Games)

  • Ventures & Villainy

    👥 4–7 Players ⏳ 30–60 Minutes

    The road is long, and danger wears many faces in Ventures and Villainy. This is a game of secret roles and subtle schemes, where deception reigns and truth is rarely spoken aloud. Each Traveler guards their identity closely, revealing it only when compelled by the rules of fate. Speak openly if you dare, but remember: secrets find their way into the world only by firelight at camp, or in hushed voices over tavern mugs.

    Created by Brett Yanoski & Austin Tesmer (Tablebound Games)

  • Zeitgeist

    👥 3–5 Players ⏳ 15–30 Minutes

    Pop culture comes and goes - ride the wave and collect trinkets that withstand the test of time in this trick-taking game of shifting values.
