Pingo Pingo
You are on a mysterious island, full of deadly penguins and must race to collect treasure and make it out alive before your time runs out! 
 
Played against a soundtrack CD that tracks time as well as infuses the game with plenty of atmosphere, Pingo Pingo will have players racing around the room, slapping cards, and shooting a dart gun at targets to collect treasure and stay alive.
Dicey Peaks
Players brave yetis, avalanche, and lack of oxygen as they try to climb to the top of the mountain and find the summit.
 
A press-your-luck dice game, Dicey Peaks has you managing your oxygen as each turn you must choose to either rest to replenish it or push on as you climb your way up the mountain. 
One Night Ultimate Werewolf
One Night Ultimate Werewolf is the classic party game Werewolf, with no player elimination, no moderator, and all played in about ten minutes.
 
Players take actions during the night and then during the day phase must decide which player to kill. If a werewolf dies, the village wins; if a villager dies then the werewolves win. It's even possible that no one is a werewolf, in which case players can win by all agreeing not to kill anyone.
 
Ubongo

Each player takes a set of 12 puzzle pieces and a puzzle board. At the beginning of each round a player rolls the die and starts the timer.

When the timer starts, you look at the symbol on the die and match it to one of the six symbols on your puzzle board to find out which puzzle pieces you will be working with. You have to fit these pieces onto the board before time runs out. Do it before the other players, and you earn bonus points.

 

The Siblings Trouble

The Siblings Trouble sends you into Ancient Forests and Abandoned Junkyards as a group of adventurous kids. Can you stop the Queen of Atlantis or the Bloated Spider?

Get ready to tell stories and roll dice, as you explore these dark and dangerous locations and find your way home!

In 5-Minute Dungeon 2-5 players team up to try and conquer a variety of obstacles that stand between them, and defeating the boss in the final chamber.

Avalanche at Yeti Mountain

Players are skiers, with rockets attached to their skies, and they’re racing down a mountain. Unfortunately you have to contend with both a yeti and an avalanche on your way down! And if you go to fast, you may have a crash!

Escape the Dark Castle
An atmospheric dungeon crawler, great for a casual audience. Survive through fifteen rooms and defeat the boss to claim your freedom, or die trying!
 
The castle is created randomly each time, so you never know what monsters and dangerous you'll encounter. Each round, players turn over the next card in the chapter deck. You may find a treasure chest that requires cunning to open, a seller of useful items, or deadly monsters!
 
Dungeon Fighter
A fun twist on classic dungeon crawlers, Dungeon Fighter turns a classic genre into a dice throwing, dexterity game! You’re no longer rolling those dice, you’re throwing them.
 
Roll the die onto the target board to deal damage to monsters, miss and take damage yourself! 
What's Up
The goal of the game is to create several sets of birds. Each set must be of a different color of bird, and each set must contain a card depicting one of that color of bird, followed by the cards depicting two and three of that bird, in order. On your turn, you flip one of the bird cards on the table. If the bird (or birds) on the newly revealed side can be added to your collection, you do so, otherwise you place the card anywhere back on the table.
