PES18333G Evidence $14.99 SRP SDI As ambitious journalists, players go in search of Evidence to prove the existence of some of the world’s greatest mysteries. In order to convince the editor-in-chief and make it to the front page with that story, they‘ll have to keep searching and following even the smallest rumors until the signs get hot. But time is of the essence because their competitors have also become aware of the story... At the beginning of the game, one clue card is hidden beneath each of the mysteries, becoming the evidence card. The remaining clue cards are distributed among the players. In clockwise order, players play clue cards with values on them, enabling everyone to deduce the value of the evidence card for each of six mysteries. They may also take research cards corresponding to the mysteries. After all clue cards have been played, each research cards grants as many points as the evidence card of the respective mystery. 2-5 players Ages 8+ 20 minute play time Contents: 90 cards Rulebook

_________________________________________________________

PES59045G Memorinth $19.99 SRP SDI It‘s a beautiful spring day — the perfect weather for a walk in the forest! The leaves on the trees rustle in a gentle breeze, and the sunlight shines through the branches. Lost in thoughts, the players turn once here and then again there... Suddenly they hear something behind them in the bushes. They step closer and discover...a goose?! And it‘s talking to a goblin? Something is not right with this forest! It might be best to head home quickly. But which is the shortest way back? On a turn, a player flips over an unoccupied forest tile that matches the light/dark status of the clearing tile. If the revealed side of the tile has one of the eight fairy tale characters on it, the player must move their player piece one space toward the side of the grid where this character is located — but only if a path connects the tile they currently occupy and the tile to which they must move. If no path exists, they don‘t move. Starting with the second round, the clearing tile will flip from light to dark and back again, challenging players to remember which characters are on which tiles so that they can move in the direction that helps them best. 2-4 players Ages 8+ 10-15 minute play time Contents: 35 cards 4 wooden meeples 5 lucky clover coins 2 rule sheets

Order by Date: June 27, 2020 Release Date: July 2020 _________________________________________________________ PES18341G Treelings $14.99 SRP SDI In the world of Treelings, construction is well and truly underway in preparation for the annual firefly festival! Beautiful, glowing swarms of fireflies may be released only from the highest towering platforms in the city during the upcoming summer solstice. Six different guilds reside in the city, and they will do everything possible to build their own tree as high as possible in each district. On a turn, a player takes all the cards of one color from the market or one card of each color that appears only once in the market; they then add these cards to their collection. Afterwards they refill the market. At the end of the game, the players look at each column of cards in their collection and compare the number of cards in it to the number of cards in the columns to the left and right. For the columns on the outer edge, they compare their height to the height of their neighbor‘s closest column. For each column, if it‘s at least as tall as each column adjacent to it, they score points equal to the number of cards in that column. 2-5 players Ages 8+ 10-20 minute play time Contents: 120 cards 2 rulebooks

Bookworm: The Card Game & The Dice Game—New from Pegasus Spiele!

PES18322E Bookworm: The Card Game

$14.99 SRP SDI The all-knowing bookworm is back in a bigger box with more content, and challenges players to come up with words of a specific starting letter and regarding a specific theme – and all of this as quickly as possible! A handful of initial letters and many different categories (flying, salty, furniture, … ) are all players need, to get the words flowing. Creativity and quick thinking are key, since the player who can get rid of all their hand cards first, wins the game. At the start of the game, each player is dealt six Letter cards. The aim of the game is to be the first play to get rid of all the cards. To begin the game, the first Category card is revealed and a first topic chosen. On their turn, the players either play a Letter card from their hand and say a word that begins with the letter of the card and fits the current category, or they change the category. In addition to the basic rules, there are three variants: Quiz Mode (only one word per category is played), Speed Mode (a player continues to play cards until their left neighbor interrupts them) and Challenge Mode (when changing the category, the player chooses two of the three choices, each Letter card has to fit both categories). 2-8 players Ages 8+ 10-30 minute play time Contents: 120 cards Rulebook

PES18335E Bookworm: The Dice Game $14.99 SRP SDI The Bookworm has come up with a new plan to find a worthy successor to his title. Instead of cards, a handful of dice now determine the available letters one round. Additionally, a special die adds a new rule each round. It can grant additional points, allow a player to change the category or count as a joker. The players try to be the first to collect 21 points by finding words that match the current category and start with one of the letters on the available dice. Dots underneath each letter show the point value a player gains at the end of a round. On their turn, a player takes a die from the display or from another player and names a word that begins with the letter on that die. If the die is from another player, they take a Bookworm Card as compensation, which is worth one point. If any player takes the last Letter die from the display or fails to name a word on their turn, the round ends and the players score the dice in front of them. Then a new category is chosen and the dice are re-rolled for the next round. 2-6 players Ages 8+ 15-30 minute play time Contents: 60 cards 8 dice Rulebook

Whoever wears it will hold the power over all of the land. To prevent evil forces from obtaining it, a powerful wizard sealed the Crown of Command behind the Portal of Power. Only those who possess one of the legendary Talismans may pass through this Portal to reach the Crown. Over the years, five of the Talismans have disappeared. Enemy forces now seek to find them in order to seize the Crown for themselves. Brave Heroes that you are, you have banded together to go on a quest to retrieve all five Talismans – and thereby stop the enemy forces from ruling the world. This task won’t be easy, as finding each Talisman is an epic adventure in itself. However, if you work together using everyone’s abilities and helping one another when you can, you will surely succeed.
