Tiletum is a dice management game in which dice have a dual function: gaining resources and performing actions. Take on the roles of rich merchants traveling throughout Europe, from Flanders to Venice, during the Golden Age of the Renaissance. 1 to 4 players – – 60 to 100 minutes game play

Tiletum is a game in which wealthy merchants visit cities across Europe.  Along the way they will build trading posts and pillars contributing to the construction of cathedrals.  Players in this game will also invite influential figures into their homes and fulfill contracts using the resources available.  When the time comes, at the end of each of the 4 rounds, players should be positioned in the city where a fair will be held.  Points are scored at that time based on scoring tiles randomly drawn and placed face up before the game starts.  Points are scored during play with major points available during each of the 4 fairs.  In addition, there will be points awarded at game end for houses completely filled with guests and a multiplier for trading houses and pillars built.  The player with the most points will be the winner. 

As a dice management game, a certain number of dice will be rolled each round. On your turn, choose a die to gain the number of corresponding resources equal to the value of the die, then perform the associated action. The power of the action is inversely proportional to the value of the die, so the fewer resources you gain, the more powerful the actions you take and vice versa. Each turn begins with the first player drawing random dice and rolling them.  They will be placed around an action wheel based on the number of pips on the die.  There are 6 action spaces around the action wheel.  They are king action, contract action, architect action, character action, merchant action, and joker action.  Each of those actions gives the player 3 options of what to do with that action.  There is an architect and a trader that can be moved around the map to get to locations to build and to get to the right cities to participate in the fairs.  There are contracts to accept and fill.  There are houses on a player’s board to filled with guests. There is a king track to score points and to claim player order.  In other words there are many things to do, many ways to go about doing them.  The player who pulls all of that together will be the winner of Tiletum.

New from Red Raven is Knight Fall an asymetrical game that can be play in one of three ways: Team vs Team for up to 6 players, Cooperative for 1 to 3 players, and Story Campaign for 1 to 2 players. – – 45 to 60 minutes game play

An ancient order of holy knights must protect the elders of an abbey against the invading demons who wish to break the abbey’s portal seal to the underworld. Players choose a unique knight or demon, each with a variety of special powers—such as the Flame Knight’s ability to surround his foes in fire, or the Bone Crusher’s power to summon skeletal minions. The cards you play from your hand to perform actions can each be used in different ways, and a set of unique location tiles allows you to create the monastery with a different layout every game.

• Team vs Teams Mode (up to 6 players): One team controls the knights, who must protect the elders and withstand the demons until dawn. The other team controls the demons, who seek to break the seal to the underworld before morning.  Knights win with 9 points while demons need 10 points to win.
• Cooperative Mode (up to 3 players): Play as the knights battling the demon. Each knight has their own demon to deal with. Game play is similar to Team vs Team.
• Campaign Mode (1 to 2 players): You will read stories while exploring the map of a haunted valley, drawing your path as you travel. Wander through crumbling churches, a sinister forest, and a dark mountain to stop the demons before the final battle at Thornmar Abbey. You must do whatever you can to keep your Knights alive; the death of each knight means one fewer hero to combat the invading demons in the final battle!

Catan Dawn of Humankind is a standalone variant game in the Catan game series. – – 3 to 4 players – – 60 to 90 minutes game time

Catan recreates the Dawn of Humankind moving from Africa to Europe, Asia, The Americas and to Australia.  Players start with 2 camps in Africa.  They will send explorers out across the map to create new camps which will add more ways to collect the 4 resources needed to build and explore.  The object of the game is to collect 10 victory points.  A point is scored for each new camp created.  The first player to create camps in each of the 4 regions outside of Africa gains 2 points.  Any other player who creates camps in all 4 regions gains 1 point.  There are 4 progress tracks for players to advance on.  One will enhance the ability to move explorers, progressing from 3 moves up to 7 on each turn, if paid for.  Another track will allow a player to move one of the two tokens that will block the production of a region and allow the player to take a resource card from another player with a camp on that region.  The other 2 tracks work in conjunction with each other to allow players to advance to space on the board containing animal tokens.  The only way to get to or through these locations is to have the correct progress on both of those tracks.  If so, the first player to get to that location will collect an animal tile and the point or ability pictured on the back of the token.  One of the abilities on the back of these tokens allows the player the ability to remove the production capability from a region in Africa.  Players will need to create camps out of Africa because those original camps will become less valuable as the game progresses.  For those who love Catan, this one will be a hit.  It takes Catan to new levels, with some interesting twists.
