Munchkin By: Steve Jackson
Go down in the dungeon. Kill everything you meet. Backstab your friends and steal their stuff. Grab the treasure and run.
Admit it. You love it.
This stand-alone game captures the dungeon experience... with none of that stupid roleplaying stuff. All you have to do is kill monsters and grab magic items. And what magic items! Don the Horny Helmet and the Boots of Butt-Kicking. Wield the Staff of Napalm... or maybe the Chainsaw of Bloody Dismemberment. Start by slaughtering the Potted Plant and the Drooling Slime, and work your way up to the Plutonium Dragon....
Fast-playing and silly, Munchkin can reduce any roleplaying group to hysteria. And, while they're laughing, you can steal their stuff.
Dividends By: Nikki Lim
Make your fortune on the volatile stock market through stock buying to earn dividend payouts or selling for profits (capital gains). The key to success in this game lies in a player’s ability to make the most money from each stock purchase (maximizing return on investment) while taking into consideration the effects of supply and demand on stock prices (market economics). While being the first-mover confers tremendous advantage, exercising major shareholder influence on dividend payouts can perhaps give a player the added edge towards financial victory!
Bang! By: Emiliano Sciarra
The Outlaws hunt the Sheriff. The Sheriff hunts the Outlaws. The Renegade plots secretly, ready to take one side or the other. Bullets fly. Who among the gunmen is a Deputy, ready to sacrifice himself for the Sheriff? And who is a merciless Outlaw, willing to kill him? If you want to find out, just draw (your cards)!
Landlord! By: Friedemann Friese
Build apartment houses, rent them to tenants, and collect the rent. Sounds simple, but in Landlord every card gives you two options for play: one side is an apartment, the other has tenants, roofs (gotta have those when you build), cellars, renovations, and special actions. Move the wealthy tenants to your apartments and put the deadbeats in your opponents'. You can even bomb apartments, but don't get caught: jail awaits those who are careless!
