We have an eventful weekend coming up and you don't want to miss out!
For starters, we have FLOW - a cooperative tile placement game where players attempt to create a path from the four corner islands to the lifeboat and save all four animals! For those who love games like Tsuro, Survive the Island, and Carcassonne, this fast-paced game is sure to please for 1-6 players of all ages! Try before you buy with our in-store games library!
Next up is Kado - a gift-giving game of tiny proportions. This pint sized package puts 2-5 players against each other in a bluffing competition. Players compete to create groups of colors of packages and types of gifts until everyone completes a 3x4 grid (12 rounds). Like a white elephant gift swap, players are trying for the best revealed gift to fit their desired board and try to pawn off less desirable gifts by bluffing.

Knitting Circle is a stand-alone followup to the puzzle game, Calico. In this tile-laying game, players are knitters competing to create the coziest, most beautiful assortment of garments.

This set's theme pays homage to Marvel's Spider-Man. The Universes Beyond coverage draws it's imagery and lore from the adventures of Peter Parker, his allies and a variety of villains. New thematic abilities play with superhero specifics in mind. For example, web-slinging is an alternate cost that bounces cards back to your hand, making room for battlefield trigger combos. On the flipside, Mayhem allows you to pay to play from your graveyard. The set features a variety of welcomed returning and familiar and mechanics such as Kicker, Convoke and Riot.
