Not Alone is an asymmetrical card game, in which one player (the Creature) plays against the rest (the Hunted). If you play as one of the Hunted, you will explore Artemia using Place cards.

Your Mission, Should You Choose to Accept it. Two covert operatives are on a secret mission in a crowded city. Each knows 9 secret agents that the other must contact. Communicating in coded messages, they sneak past enemy assassins in an attempt to complete their mission before time runs out. Codenames: Duet is a cooperative word game for two or more players. A key card gives you 9 words to give clues and 3 words your partner must avoid. A clue is only one word, but it can point to multiple words that you want your partner to guess. Your partner also gives you clues for the words you need to find. If you both find all the words before you run out of turns, you both win! With a new way to play, 400 new words that work with the original Codenames , and 100 new challenges, Codenames: Duet is sure to push your mind to the limit! Go Undercover! In Codenames: Duet , players must work together to uncover all the secret agents on both sides of the key card before they run out of turns. You'll need to be quick-witted, because these challenges will put your deductive skills to the test! It Takes Two to Tango! You and a partner will pick a key card and set up the grid of words. You'll take turns, going back and forth, giving each other clues to guess as many words as possible before passing to the other player. On their turn, a player gives a word and a number as their clue and the other player makes guesses as to which words hide a hidden operative. Correct guesses are covered in a green agent card, if a player guesses a word that is black on your key card, the game is over and you lose. If a guessed word is tan on the key card, that is an innocent bystander and the turn ends with you taking a token from the time bank and placing it on the guessed word. If the two players can guess all 15 hidden operatives before running out of turn tokens, they win the game! Sudden Death If players run out of time, they enter sudden death, relying on previous clues to guess where the remaining operative are hiding. If a word is guessed correctly, the guessing continues, but if a bystander or assassin is uncovered, the game is over and the players lose. More Ways to Play! Codenames: Duet is designed for two players, but it can be played with a group. Players will split up into two teams and play the game as normal, any member of a team able to give the clue. Teams may privately discuss their clues to come up with the perfect one! Players may also embark on a campaign using the Mission Map pad. Each completed game will let you move on to new and more challenging missions that change the number of turn counters and bystander tokens. Some missions reduce the number of turns you have while other leave less room for error. After completing these challenging missions, you can consider yourselves Codewords masters!

Millennium Blades is a board game about a fictional collectible card game, which is also called Millennium Blades. You begin the game on pre-release night with just your starter deck. You'll open new packs, form collections, and sell your junk cards on the aftermarket to buy hot new cards. Trade with your friends, build up your deck, and prepare to compete at Millennium Blades Worlds for the title of World Champion! This is a game about competitive deck building. You get a limited pool of cards, and then you tinker them into the most unfairly over-powered, table-flippingly broken deck that you can imagine. And your deck had better be pretty crazy, because your opponents won't be giving any quarter, and they all have unique collections with access to their own high-tier power cards. In addition to deckbuilding, you'll be speculating on blind pack buys, selling and buying cards on the aftermarket, and fusing your cards to make rarer and better ones to get an advantage over the competition. You might even make a few friends, if you're willing to help them out.
It has been a grueling training regiment at the Academy, but you're finally ready for your first mission as a full-fledged T.I.M.E. agent. You and your team will travel back (or forward) in time to prevent some cataclysmic event. But don't waste a moment...every second counts! In T.I.M.E. Stories, you will work cooperatively with a team to solve a mystery taking place in a different era. Each team member will enter a shell of someone alive at the time and gain their physical strengths and weaknesses. If you can't complete the adventure in time you'll be sent back to the start of the mission for another attempt. Each T.I.M.E. Stories deck is a new scenario waiting to be discovered! When are we this time?
You have been commissioned to construct a city, more populous and prestigious than any of your neighbors! Quadropolis is a clever game of building and managing a city for two to four budding architects. Each turn, you'll dispatch one of your architects to claim a new building tile from the market. You must be careful, however-which architect you dispatch determines what building you get and where you can place it. Will you build towering apartments, bustling malls filled with people, parks to reduce waste, or factories to supply your shops and harbors? Design your metro in Quadropolis.
It's 1833. The East India Company has just had its monopoly of trade revoked by an official act of Parliament. You, and others like you, see a golden opportunity for profit in China. For too long the Company's polite deference to the Qing has smothered progress and stifled trade. There is real money to be made here and you intend to make it. An Infamous Traffic is a brutal economic board game for two to five souls brave enough to conduct the opium trade in the fracturing political landscape of 19th century Qing China. Initially, you will need to rely on smugglers in order to get your products into the interior, but, if Parliament can be swayed, perhaps an open war can make the trade more secure. At the same time, you'll want to be careful. If British aggression goes unchecked, the region may become a failed state, which could jeopardize your hard fought gains. Of course, the massive wealth you'll earn won't be enough. Trade is still a dirty word among those in the top rungs of society. You certainly haven't forgotten how your business holdings were sneered at by some prodigal baronet during your brief stint at Oxford. They don't understand. The empire they enjoy was built on trade, not pedigree. So, you'll play their game, snatching up the precious symbols of nobility with your hard won cash. Perhaps you can restore a beloved castle and stuff it full of the latest luxuries. The right marriage or government post would certainly guarantee your place in society. You might even be tempted to rob your own firm to get that extra edge back home. In any case, there's demand for opium in China, and you intend to meet it.
In Evolution: The Beginning, you'll adapt your species to succeed in a dynamic ecosystem where food is scarce and predators roam. Traits like Flight and Horns will protect your species from Carnivores while a Long Neck will help them get food that others cannot reach. With hundreds of ways to evolve your species, every game unfolds in a beautifully unique way. Evolution: The Beginning borrows ideas and concepts from other games in the Evolution branded product line, but it is a stand-alone game that is not compatible with anything else in the Evolution product line. It is the most casual and quick playing adaptation of the Evolution concept, but it is highly strategic as a two-player game.

"Lord Varys knows all," Petyr said with a sly smile. "He will be joining us shortly." -George R.R. Martin, A Game of Thrones The king has called for a tourney and a feast to be held at King's Landing, and the Great Houses of Westeros have answered the call. Stark, Greyjoy, Lannister, Targaryen, Baratheon, Tyrell, Tully-all have gathered, for the whisperers say that the King will choose his new Hand at this feast.

Climb aboard, travelers, your incredible First Journey awaits!

In a post apocalyptic setting, an alien civilization has invaded Earth. Players work together as part of a special ops team with the code name "ELITE". They are dispatched to high priority missions - protecting objectives and defending vital targets against the alien invaders. Project: ELITE is a co-operative, real-time, speed-dice, tactical, tower-defense-like game in which players roll dice with symbols as fast as they can allowing them to do various actions with their character on the game board. They move around shooting and cutting through waves of aliens blocking their advance while at the same time trying to complete objectives that will bring them to victory. The game consists of a number of real-time 2-minute rounds (depending on the scenario) separated by an AI Alien Phase where aliens perform abilities, advance towards their goal and receive reinforcements. The constant performance of actions through dice rolling combined with an innovative combat/movement system result in a mix of intense gameplay that offers countless hours of fun. What really makes Project: ELITE unique is the "Alien Move" symbol that appears on one side of each of the player's dice and forces him/her to move an alien towards their goal. The end result is a real-time tactical board game where friend and foe are in constant motion, trying to prevail over the other.

Axia — a land with a glorious past, a most uncertain present, and an even more unpredictable future. Populated by what has been described as a fervent and warm-blooded people, Axia is in crisis – economic, social, and political: the longest-running recession in its modern history, the highest inequality in years, and a political system teetering on the brink of collapse. In more ways than one, Axia is fighting against itself. Old divisions of the past have given way to new ones, and this generation – along with the next ones – has the most to lose. Will you, along with your fellow industrialists, do your part to help Axia? Will you sacrifice short-term gain in the present for a brighter future? Can you do that, and survive? Perhaps you can, and perhaps you can even thrive – and you will, if you see opportunity where others only see crisis! CRISIS is a turn-based game for 1-5 players who assume the roles of businessmen, trying to rebuild their businesses and create value at a particularly challenging time. By skillfully placing their managers in a position to invest in companies, trade resources, and navigate the local bureaucracy and regulations, they can thrive and prosper in a time when others might struggle and decline.
From the designers who brought you Mr. Jack, Dice Town, Cyclades and many others, Bruno Cathala and Ludovic Maublanc are at it again with the all-new dice rolling game, Dice Stars!

Players roll their dice, then simply and strategically select colors, numbers, or stars at the right time to score the highest points!
Four Against Darkness is a solitaire dungeon-delving game. No miniatures are needed. All you need is the book, a pencil, two six sided dice, and grid paper. You choose four character types from the classic classes (warrior, wizard, rogue, halfling, dwarf, barbarian, cleric, elf), equip them, and start adventuring in dungeons created by dice rolls and by your choices. When you enter a room, you generate its content on a series of random tables. You will meet monsters, fight them, hopefully defeat them (or decide that discretion is the better part of valor!), you'll manage your resources (healing, spells, life points, equipment), grab treasure, dodge traps, find clues, and even accept quests from the monsters you meet. Your characters can level up and become better at what they do, but it will not be easy. What the game is not: It is NOT a miniature game. You may use miniatures to remember your characters' marching order if you wish, but that's it. It is NOT a roleplaying game. You may run it as a simple cooperative, GM-less game if you want. It is not a game-book or a choose-your-own-adventure book. There is no prose to read or numbered sections to go to, even if we could do something like that in a supplement. Everybody at Ganesha is having great fun with 4AD. A couple of supplements are almost ready and will be available soon. The PDF is 65 pages with plenty of black and white illustration, plus a color cover and a flowchart.
Krazy Wordz - Nicht 100% jugendfrei! Das ultra-witzige WortErfindeUndErrate-Spiel.

Then all players have to guess which of the created words will fit to which of the tasks. Finally, the best guesser and word-creator will win the game.
Hocus is a classic card game beloved by ancient folk, now redesigned for modern humans who may or may not have the gift of magic. It is about managing a limited hand of cards and wielding spells to create ranked sets of cards that are superior to your opponents' sets. Using elements from classic Poker games, Hocus expands and revises them to create a fresh and magical experience. In Hocus, 2-5 players build the best Sets by combining shared Communities of 4 cards with 2 personal Pocket cards. Unlike in traditional Poker, players build Communities, Pockets, and Pots using cards from their Hands on individual turns. There are multiple Communities, each with a Pot, and two Pockets per player.
In Factory Funner , players are factory managers who select and install machines in their factory. They try connect all machine input and output pipes to the right reservoirs or to other machines in order to build the most profitable configuration. A new machine brings revenue. Other things you build (reservoirs and connectors (pipelines)) cost 1K money each. In each game round, players may select one machine (from a number of machines equal to the number of players) simultaneously, which means players try to quickly determine possible connections, then grab the tile they want. But by choosing too quickly, you risk taking a machine that doesn't fit well... When fitting in a machine, a key tactic is to keep the most and best options for connecting future machines! After eight rounds, the player with the most money wins.
Are you a risk taker? How well do you trust your memory? Do you believe in luck? In the card game BOLD , you're trying to match cards that show three kinds of containers that vary in color, size, and pattern. Can you remember where the matches are? And will you be willing to put your points where your memory is? Shuffle the cards, then place them face down in a grid formation. The first player reveals two cards. Do the containers match in type, color, size, or pattern? If yes, that's a pair! Now comes a test of your mettle: Will you take your points and run, or will you gamble them by flipping another card and hoping it shares a feature with the first two? The game becomes more intense as it goes on and you remember more!
The world has grown smaller. Civilizations around different continents have established independent free trade cities in order to ease trading between distant lands. One of those cities, Yengzuh, is now looking for a new ruler – a new Trade Master. The post is only open every ten years and the selection of the said individual is no small task. It's handled by holding a trading competition as it's in everyone's best interest to get the best merchant chosen for the job. All the participating merchants are prestigious, but the competition also tests their ability to deal with unexpected situations. After all, the winner will be responsible of keeping the global prices more fair and stable for years to come. There are only twelve free trade cities in the world. Yengzuh near Pandala is one of the oldest. The Guild of Extraordinary Traders from Dale promoted the founding of the city after the trade wars in Asia had spread too wide. The city's harbour has tens of great ships all the time, loading and unloading passengers and cargo. In Dale of Merchants 2 , players take the roles of those participating merchants learning new techniques, trading goods, and managing their stock. The player who first manages to complete their astounding merchant stall wins the game and gets access to the guild! Dale of Merchants 2 contains six new decks and can be played by itself or combined with the decks from Dale of Merchants. The game includes a new ruleset for four players that introduces team battle! These new rules greatly enhance the four-player experience by adding cooperation between teammates and cutting downtime. These rules can also be used with the original game's six decks.
While empires rise and fall in Eastern Europa, the rest of the world takes notice. Two distant factions, Albion and Togawa, send emissaries to scout the land and employ their own distinct styles of conquering. This expansion to Scythe adds 2 new factions, each with 5 miniatures, 31 custom wooden tokens, and 1 faction mat. It also includes new cardboard tokens, 2 new player mats, 6 Automa cards, and a custom plastic insert designed to fit into the expansion box or the original Scythe box. The expansion works seamlessly with any version of Scythe. The originally game was capped at 5 players, but with 2 new player mats in the expansion 6-7 player games can be played. To scale up, the expansion includes alternate abilities for some of the original factions.
In the game of Eschaton , players seek to lead the most favored cult in the final days before Armageddon. As the world crumbles, the Dark One will favor only a single unholy mass to be his Chosen in the vastness of eternity following the cataclysm. All others will be obliterated by his depraved will. Through bloodshed on the field of battle, divination of the unholiest arcana, and initiation of powerful cultists, you will build your cult and earn your rightful place. Eschaton is a strategy game driven by a deck-building mechanic. All players begin with the same basic cult (deck) and an equal presence on the realm map. As the game progresses, each player utilizes the evil Influence of their existing Cultist cards to initiate new Cultists into their deck as they seek to earn the most Points of Favor from the Dark One. These Cultists carry different specialties: some are masters at arms, others strong wielders of arcane magics, and others provide even greater Influence to recruit stronger members.
The players represent CEOs of mighty power companies producing electricity. During the game, the players bid for power plants at auctions and supply them with resources. Their income depends on the amount of electricity produced in each round. At the end of the game, the player who produces the most electricity wins.

You get the full Power Grid emotions in an intense 60 minutes playing time! Much like Power Grid Deluxe, it includes a two-player version of the game where players play 'Against the Trust'.
In this game the players are corrupt politicians with the goal to grub as much money as possible. One player distributes money from the treasury. After intensive negotiations the players vote.

Witchhunt is a large-group social deduction game (like Werewolf or Mafia) for 7-22 players. A group of Villagers must find and lynch the Witches among them during the day, while the Witches kill a target every night. Unlike similar games, dead players on both teams continue to influence the game. Additionally, each player has a unique character with a simple ability--including the Witches. This means the abilities of the Witch team varies wildly game-to-game.

DiceTower News: "Best Board Game of the Month May 2016" Tech Raptor: "An epic feeling game that does not require an epic ruleset" ---- Launch your fleet, capture ports, and wage war in the epic board game adventure for 2-5 players. In Empires at Sea, play as one of five nations and work to amass the largest empire at the end of 15 rounds of play. During each round, History will give benefits or setbacks to each nation, while the Weather limits (and occasionally improves) movement across a map of the Atlantic from the 1800s. Selected as a KickStarter Staff Pick during our launch and Project We Love shortly after, Empires at Sea is a strategy board game built around the golden age of piracy and huge sailing ships of the 18th century. It brings in elements of "serious" strategy games, but is extremely easy to learn and really, really fun to play. The basic premise of Empires at Sea is to establish an empire. At sea. Each player starts with a port on the Atlantic and a small ship, each port produces resources and resources are used to purchase ships or advancements (for example: stronger cannons, thicker hulls). Once you've established your fleet, you can use it to attack your enemies, raid Pirate's Bay, or continue to grow your Empire. At the end of play, the captain with the most Empire Points wins. The game is tightly tied to the historical events of the 1700 and 1800s. A History Card will give benefits/setbacks to different nations each round. A Weather Card will dictate which way the winds will blow and how your ships will be able to move across the map. Both the two-player and three-plus-player maps are based on actual maps drawn during the period. The ships are modeled off of actual ships of the time. Piracy also plays a large role in Empires at Sea. Each round, players commit gold to a bribe, and whoever bribes the most can control the pirate and wreak havoc on their enemies. The early game is expansion and industry, the end game is war.
Seven can't be beaten! The wooden playing pieces are spread at random onto the board with the numerous hexagonal spaces so that they show a radiant assortment of colors. In addition, one pawn is placed on any of the spaces. This pawn moves across the playing area, either just to an adjacent space or across unoccupied spaces – in any of the six possible directions, but only in a straight line. Each move ends on an occupied space. The player takes the playing piece lying there and puts it in front of him. It is ideal if the player can keep going and collect several pieces of that same color during that turn. The player who collects all seven pieces of one color wins the game. If that is not possible, the player who has four or more playing pieces in at least four colors wins. There is no predetermined starting set-up, so each game is different.

Tatsu is a two-player game in which players control three different types of dragon pieces. By rolling two six-sided dice to decide movement and either combining or splitting the values, the pieces travel round the inside circle of the board, only swapping to the outer circle when landing on the same space as another piece, which will affect the piece in the following ways: Vine dragons (green) entangle a player's dragon. Water dragons (blue) expel a player's dragon off the board, back to their holding tray. Fire dragons (red) destroy a player's dragon, removing it entirely from play. Victory is gained when a player manages to destroy all of one type of the opposition's dragons or knocks all the opposition's dragons off the board so that none remain in play. The Story Japanese legend tells of a great battle between two mighty Dragon Lord armies, locked in combat on the peaks of Mount Hotaka, competing to win the hand of Princess Kushinada, the last and most beautiful of eight sisters. A battle so ferocious, that the villagers fearing for their lives, acquire the help of a powerful Wizard, who casts a spell over the Dragon Lords to keep them imprisoned in a circle of combat and to be freed only at the battle's end. Their struggle continues to this very day, even though the Princess and their fateful story have long passed into legend.
The starship is going down. You (and everyone else!) need to find the last working escape pod before it's too late. You know the ship like the back of your hand, but you also know that most of the pods are either gone or broken. You have to act now or you'll be going down with the ship. In Pod-X , you try to deduce the secret win condition card, while also trying to meet it. You will do this by playing your cards publicly (to the table) or keeping them private (in your hand). The dealer role passes to a new player each round. Only the dealer knows the secret, so players can also examine her actions for clues. Use your best deduction and wile to maximize your score!
Each year Vernon Cabbagehead, (Mr. Cabbagehead to his friends), wants to be left in peace to grow his award winning vegetable garden for the annual Garden Club contest. However, his tedious neighboirs tend to interfere when he is away, and frequently drop by to help themselves to the garden produce. Can Mr. Cabbagehead create a beautiful garden and finally win the blue ribbon? In Mr. Cabbagehead's Garden , Vegetable cards are drafted and placed in the garden plot, a grid of six cards by three cards. Depending on which cards are selected, one of the tedious neighbours may interfere with the garden in a variety of ways. Players must be careful in their choice of Vegetable to plant, its position in the garden, and in maintaining their supply of invaluable bees, which give Mr. Cabbagehead more flexibility in planting. Once all cards have been drawn the game is over and the Garden Club committee visits to evaluate Mr. Cabbagehead's Garden. The number and position of Vegetables matter and players must be creative in developing a garden that is both pleasing to the eye and plentiful in Vegetables. Originally released in a Print & Play version with 4 Neighbours, the published deluxe edition of Mr. Cabbagehead adds more Neigbours, more variety in scoring, and a streamlined set of rules that includes a fixed garden plot grid variant. More importantly, the published version includes rules for 2 players.

Each player has a goal card placed in front of them on the table, their objective is to get the Back Side of their hand to match the colors and order of their goal hand.

If a player is on a location Klein is attacking without having a hiding place they are slashed and killed by Klein and eliminated from the game. Work together and survive 3 Acts(rounds), identify the killer, and win the game.
This is a one page, ultra-portable, black and white solitaire game. You assume the role of a small party of conquistadors trying to reach the Atlantic Ocean after a failed expedition deep in the New World. This game is limited to 42 turns and each turn consists of phases such as Map Making, Exploring, and Hunting where a handful of dice are allocated in a press-your-luck fashion. For those that enjoy role-playing, there is also an optional Journaling phase where you try to tell a story about what happened on your turn. Can you reach the Atlantic Ocean before time runs out or before you lose all of your Conquistadors? THEME Your commander and entire company was killed after being ambushed in these mountains. The next morning, only six of you survive. Now you have to make it down the mountain and to the coastline where you can signal for help. The way is dangerous though; you're short food and muskets.

You and your fellow players are architects at Luna Mare, the architectural firm planning the first base on the moon. You will compete with your coworkers for access to building blueprints, astronauts, and construction resources- all to develop the most successful moonbase! Lunarchitects is a medium-weight strategy game that has players moving their pawns forward in a refilling circular queue to claim building blueprints. Players use the claimed blueprints to build personal moonbase plans in front of them. But instead of turns proceeding clockwise, the player furthest behind in the queue always takes the next turn. This makes blueprint choices a matter of quality over quantity. Blueprints from four stages are shuffled then stacked, with stages increasing in both cost and power. Each time all players complete a lap of the blueprint queue, scoring occurs- and the game ends after the fourth round of scoring. The player who has collected the most points is the winner, and their plans will guide the creation the first settlement on the moon! Unknown tile arrangement and variable scoring schemes (determined before the start) makes the game very replayable, as there is never a single most-powerful strategy. Inspired by the well-loved game Glen More , Lunarchitects is a family game for 1-5 players that plays in about an hour.
Captain "Red Beard", the infamous Pirate King, is lost without a trace after an unfortunate rendezvous with a mermaid. The power-hungry Pirate Lords have waited for this chance for a long time and seek to seize his throne. After following the old pirate code mentioning a rum cask, the reckless Julienne "Jolly" Garçon and the eccentric Jack "Roger" Hummingbird were the only ones who could still stand up. The so-called "Double-Boarding" contest shall now determine the winner between the two of them – and thus the new Pirate King. Prepare to be boarded, you landlubbers! Jolly & Roger is a card game for two players featuring the well-known "I split, you choose" mechanism. On their turn, a player draws five pirate cards and splits them into two sets. The other player then chooses one of the sets, and the player who split the cards takes the leftover set. With their pirate cards, players try to board the four merchant ships by adding their matching-colored crew members on their side of the ship. The player who has the most powerful crew on a ship puts one of his captains on the ship (possibly removing the opponent's captain) and may then use further pirate cards of that color to steal gold from the ship. After eight rounds, the game ends. Each player's captain on a ship at the end of the game captures this ship as a bonus. The player with the most gold wins. Jolly & Roger includes three types of special cards – the Kraken, the Skeleton Pirate, and Tortuga – for use in the expert variant to spice up the game.
In the near future of Paradox , a space-time disturbance called The Quake is fracturing entire worlds' timelines and removing these worlds from existence. Two to four players take on the roles of scientists working quickly to repair these worlds' connections to their past, present, and future by making new time strands — however, every repaired connection ripples through time and fuels the Quake to fracture more worlds. When the storm's power fades, the most successful scientist will be hailed as a hero throughout the multiverse. Paradox takes familiar board game elements such as card drafting, set collection, and resource management, then adds a Bejewelled -like grid of colorful disks for each player to manipulate, along with a universe of worlds that must be protected by game's end. As a result, Paradox presents players with a unique experience that is simple to learn yet challenging to master as players navigate three interlocking systems to protect these worlds from the chaotic forces of the Quake. Paradox is designed by Brian Suhre and is illustrated by 15 artists, each with their unique view of one of the worlds. Paradox plays in about 20-30min per player.
Spaghetti is a dexterity game in which players compete to pull out as many valuable spaghetti noodles as possible. There are 27 noodles on the plate that vary in colors, length and points: 10 natural = 1 vp 8 tomato = 2 vp 6 spinach = 3 vp 3 sepia = 4 vp A player has only twenty seconds to collect the best pieces, but eating spaghetti requires great care. If anything falls off the plate and stains the table, the player's turn ends immediately. A player can use only one hand and can touch only one noodle at a time at one point. If pulling a noodle causes a meatball to start rolling off the plate, the player can drop the noodle to try to catch the meatball. At the moment the meatball is grabbed, it cannot be touching any noodles on the plate. These skillfully caught meatballs are worth one point at the end of the game. The game ends when the plate is empty, with no pasta and no meatballs, and whoever scores the most points wins. There are two additional difficulty levels: Spaghetti Difficili and Spaghetti Superiori. Spaghetti Difficili differs from the basic game in the number of meatballs (now four) and the size of plate on which spaghetti is served (players choose a small one). In Spaghetti Superiori, players earn extra points for fulfilling Italian recipes. There are 12 recipe tokens in total, each shows spaghetti ingredients. Players must remove those ingredients to claim the token. A player must get all of a token's ingredients during a single 20-second turn.

Each turn either draw a card or play a card - cards can be played as either treasure or as an action. Do you want to draw 2 cards, or steal the treasure chest your opponent just played? Or would you rather wipe the board...knowing that your booty is protected! ' Scuttle!' is a card game for 1-5 valiant pirates, suitable for players as young as 6.

Bloc by Bloc: The Insurrection Game is a semi-cooperative tabletop game inspired by 21st century protest movements, riots and popular uprisings. Each player controls a faction of revolutionaries—Workers, Students, Neighbors, or Prisoners—fighting against the State in the streets of a city that change with each game. Build barricades, clash with riot cops, occupy districts, loot shopping centers, and liberate the city before time runs out and the military arrives! Bloc by Bloc features hidden agendas, deep strategy, area control, asymmetrical player abilities, and a special method for randomly generating billions of unique city layouts. Bloc by Bloc 2nd edition features brand new art, streamlined gameplay, improved components and new objectives for the insurrection! The game lasts up to 10 rounds. Each round is 1 night and each night has 2 phases. During the Nighttime phase, each player takes a turn: 3-5 actions followed by a police response that is controlled by the Police Ops deck and the level of Police Morale. Each player starts with 2 blocs in the city and can add more throughout the game. On a player's turn, they roll dice and take one action (such as looting, occupying, attacking, or barricading) for each die rolled with 1+ of their blocs. Players may use loot cards to enhance their actions. After all factions have taken their turns, the Sunrise phase begins, which is when police go on the attack and factions have a chance to liberate districts. The police and the State are the common enemies of all factions. Factions must build occupations in all of their own districts for the social insurrection to be successful. However, each faction also has its own secret agenda with a set of specific tasks that faction must complete in order to win the game. The majority of factions will have Social Agendas and they must cooperate to win the game together. But some factions may have Vanguardist or Nihilist Agendas that secretly pit them against the social insurrection. These factions can only win the game alone!
Avignon is a quick influence manipulation card game in which the two players are rival candidates for Pope in the 14th century. Players gain influence by petitioning members of the medieval Church, such as Cardinals, Nobles, and Knights, and using the characters' unique powers to pull the character cards over to their side of the table (their congregation), or force an opponent to push cards towards them. The first player to get three characters into their congregation wins.
Really Bad Art is what you're making in this party game, but not because you're a terrible drawer, no — only because you have exactly six seconds to see what you're supposed to draw, then draw it! Each round, each player secretly takes a card with two phrases like "lack of confidence", "quality of life", "constructive criticism", or "yikes!", then draws a representation of one of those phrases based on whichever color was chosen. Those cards are then shuffled with a dummy card and laid out next to the game board, after which everyone secretly votes on which piece of art corresponds to which card. Guess correctly, and you score two points; have others guess your phrase correctly, and you score one point. Rounds continue until someone has scored thirty or more points and won the game!
Revealing the terrible artist in all of us, players in Scrawl start off with a loaded phrase, doodle it, then pass it on. By the time your masterpiece of an "OAP Conga Line" passes through your friends' weird minds and wonky pens — and makes it back to you — things will have gone horribly wrong. Points are awarded for the most disastrous doodles and godawful guesses. Most grins wins.
Snappy Dressers cards show quirky and delightful animal characters dressed in the snappiest of outfits!

Snappy Dressers includes ten different games to play with one deck of cards, ranging from speed recognition to sly strategy.

The quinoa, lentils, Greek yogurt and cooked-to-order egg ensure a ton of protein, perfect for powering a long day of work or school. Meanwhile, the accompanying spice blend is seriously delicious.
A vegan alternative to a savory sausage patty, this recipe takes a bit more time than you'll likely have on a busy weekday – but save it for the weekend, and you'll find the effort to be well worth it. The final product may be enjoyed as crumbles in different dishes, or as a protein-packed side dish to gluten-free toast, eggs or a tofu scramble.
Baked eggs appear to be having a moment, and with good reason. The all-in-one dish can be packed with nutritious ingredients, and also look quite beautiful.

Q: how to output color in w3m how does w3m terminal browser output color? and how can i copy that? i know there is no CSS, but w3m has colored links, the background can be set to different colors, input fields are colored and underlined..&c...&c.. so i am hoping there is a way to output color from a php or html file.
since it runs in terminal, i have tried echoing ansi escape codes like:
<?php
echo "\x1b[31;msometext"
?>

but that didn't work.
i also tried using deprecated html attributes but got no luck. for instance, bgcolor="blue" doesn't work in w3m but does still work in brave browser. i did manage
to get some deprecated <table> attributes to kind of work like cellpadding and border but nothing that involves styling the text.
so what do i try next? if i cannot, why not? and how does w3m do it?

The two saw a need for small businesses in the city, so they brought their organic baked goods to a storefront on Willis Street. Every day, they serve more than 1,000 customers who come for treats like brioche with chocolate ganache or authentic French-style baguettes, and their products are available in more than 40 restaurants across southeast Michigan.

Food Field
1600 Lawrence Street
Thanks to plentiful, fertile open land and copious rainfall, Detroit has quickly become an urban farming oasis. One burgeoning new farm, Food Field, located on the former site of both a convent and an elementary school, was founded by Noah Link (A.B. '07) and Alex Bryan (A.B. '07). Food Field hopes to help meet the need for local, affordable, organic food in a city that still lacks adequate access to fresh groceries.

Jolly Pumpkin
441 West Canfield Street
Every Ann Arborite knows Jolly Pumpkin, the microbrewery dreamed up by Ron Jeffries (A.B. '89) and renowned for its classic sour beers. Now, the ahead-of-trend brewpub has added Detroit to its list of hotspots, settling in the heart of Midtown across the street from City Bird, which was also founded by LSA alums! (See below.) Featuring outdoor seating and Jolly Pumpkin's signature beers, the pizzeria and brewery is already a neighborhood favorite.

Detroit Land Bank Authority
The Guardian Building
500 Griswold Street
It's no secret that Detroit has a lot of vacant land and unoccupied buildings; after all, its population today is less than half of what it was in 1950. Figuring out what to do with those properties (and how to best serve neighborhoods) is the job of the Detroit Land Bank Authority. Executive Director Kevin Simowski (A.B. '79) leads a team that auctions homes, sells vacant land, and demolishes blighted properties in order to support Detroit's renaissance.

Semester in Detroit
Semester in Detroit students live, learn, and work in the city, engaging with local community organizations and leaders to make a difference—and become invested themselves. Although the program is administered by the Residential College, it is open to students from across the University. Students not only spend their semester living in the city, but also interning with a community partner. The program also co-sponsors a "Detroiters Speak" series of public talks each term, highlighting the history and culture of the city.

Racquet Up Detroit
18100 Meyers Road
Racquet Up Detroit was established in spring 2010 in order to empower Detroit youth through a mentoring program that combines academics and community service with the sport of squash. Executive director Derek Aguirre (A.B. '02) and academic and community engagement coordinator Rashard Haynesworth (A.B. '02 Kinesiology) team with several other staff members who are LSA graduates.

Detroit Seafood Partners
The Detroit River, while beautiful, isn't exactly a sea. But that isn't going to stop Detroit Seafood Partners from their goal to bring Michigan-raised seafood products to the market. The seafood distributor, started by Michael Noeske (A.B. '14) and Daniel Bloch (A.B. '15), began as a fish farm and fish processing facility, with plans to reinvest a portion of its earnings to develop more sustainably grown and organic seafood in the community. They have already partnered with local organizations to employ veterans and to reduce food waste, adding a social justice component to their mission.

Selden Standard
3921 Second Avenue
If you want to find innovation in Detroit, follow your taste buds. They'll lead you to a burgeoning food scene with no fewer than 10 soon-to-open restaurants slated to alter the scope of eating in the Motor City. But none of them fill the particular niche that alumnus Evan Hansen ('01) has in mind with his new restaurant, Selden Standard.
"Detroit doesn't have many mid-to-upper-level restaurants that are casual," says Hansen. "There are great places, mostly inexpensive or fine dining. But in a city where young professionals are one of the fastest growing groups, it can't all be ethnic fare and white linens. We want it to be affordable, upbeat, and fun when you walk into Selden Standard, and every table should feel like its own party."
To achieve the fun, communal vibe when the restaurant opens in Midtown this coming fall, Selden Standard will offer small, sharable plates that feature seasonal, local fare prepared by former Roast chef Andy Hollyday. The restaurant will also have a tasty but affordable wine list. It's no wonder Eater National put Selden Standard on the list of "50 most anticipated restaurants nationwide."
Even with so many new restaurants coming to Detroit, Hansen says it's been more of a collaboration than a competition. "The city in general—everyone is very supportive and into helping each other. Everyone wants to see everyone else's businesses do well."

Taste Love Cupcakes
It's been three years since Michelle Wilson Brown ('96) and Yolanda Baston (U-M '95) opened Taste Love Cupcakes, a specialty bakery on bustling Main Street in Royal Oak, Michigan, and business is booming. The cupcakes, which are made from premium ingredients that are organic and locally sourced whenever possible, are hot sellers in-store, as well as in Detroit's Whole Foods, which carries Taste Love's half-pints and mini cupcakes.
The idea of opening a bakery in the midst of a recession may have scared off others, but Michigan natives Brown and Baston were confident in their business model. "We thought that Michigan deserved a really awesome gourmet cupcake experience," says Brown. "We have that pride being from Michigan, and we want to be part of helping the economy grow, and to help the metro area grow."
Sweet potato, chocolate chip cookie dough, and dark chocolate salted caramel are three of their most popular flavors on a growing list as the founders experiment with recipes and ingredients. Looking ahead, Brown says their goal is to get into more Whole Foods stores, and then ideally open up shop in Detroit and, eventually, Ann Arbor.
"It's still a good time to have your own business in Michigan, especially in Detroit," Brown says. "Things are really growing and budding there."
Taste Love Cupcakes are sold at Whole Foods Detroit.

Red House Imports
In the Woodbridge neighborhood of Detroit is a coffee company that cares about where its beans come from.
Like, really cares.
Red House Imports sources coffee from a small organic co-op of 24 families in Costa Rica. The co-op harvests shade-grown coffee, dries the beans with solar power, and composts the coffee berries for fertilizer. The co-op also roasts its coffee before sending it to Red House Imports—an unusual practice that allows the farmers to control their product and set a higher price than they would by selling unroasted beans. Founders Travis Heeren ('11), Jamie Olson ('11), and Justin Sterk ('12), all Program in the Environment alumni, say the additional costs are part of Red House Imports' sustainable model.
"We can pay [the co-op] three to four times what they could command for unroasted beans, and that money can stay in their community," says Heeren. What's more, the co-op's environmentally conscious growing practices not only keep the co-op healthy but also minimize its carbon footprint and benefit downstream farms by keeping the soil and water clean.
That's all well and good for Costa Rica, but Red House Imports' business model has a local impact, too: In Detroit, the company will devote a portion of its profits to local charities and education programs.
Red House Imports sells coffee on its web site and plans to sell its coffee in food co-ops, cafes, and restaurants in Detroit and elsewhere later this summer. "There's a thirst for wanting to consume intelligently and with a social conscience," says Olson.
Visit the Red House Imports website.
From Tuesday through Friday during the summer, more than 300 kids all over Detroit conduct science experiments, plant gardens, learn about art, or take field trips to the Henry Ford Museum or the DIA. And it's all free, thanks to Summer in the City, a volunteer program that seeks to "improve and expand community service" and "address the immediate needs of city neighborhoods" in metro Detroit.
"Having exciting childcare options in the summer is helpful to a lot of families," says Grace Judge, an LSA junior who is the director for Summer in the City's youth enrichment program, also called Project Play. "We try to use this time as an opportunity to do fun activities that expose them to new opportunities and use the skills they learned in school."
Hundreds of volunteers, mostly high-school and college students or recent graduates, engage in Summer in the City's hands-on volunteer work with Detroit kids. In addition to Project Play, this includes an urban gardening program, Project Plant, and creating murals around the city through Project Paint. Since Summer in the City began in 2002, more than 5,500 volunteers have performed 175,000 hours of high-impact community service.
The work has had a lasting impact on the city itself.
"Quite a few people didn't consider Detroit the kind of place they wanted to end up," says Judge, "but then they did the program and changed their mind. After Summer in the City, they realized they love Detroit, and they want to make an effort to work for the city."
Visit the Summer in the City website.
City Bird
In 2005, brother-sister duo Andy ('06) and Emily ('01) Linn were looking for a way to use their artistic talents to express pride in their hometown of Detroit, while also contributing to the community.
What began as a line of handmade city-themed products in their parents' basement blossomed into two booming retail stores in the heart of midtown Detroit. City Bird, their flagship, is celebrating its fifth anniversary this year and carries an extensive and well-cultivated collection of handmade goods from their own line, along with artisans spanning the Midwest. Companion shop Nest, located two doors down, showcases beautiful housewares appropriate for chic city dwellers (and the less chic rest of us).
"Detroit is an especially magical place in that it's big enough to make a difference in the world, but small enough that regular people can make that difference," says Andy Linn.
So, what's next for these dynamic siblings? After the recent purchase of the City Bird retail space, they are now planning to reinvent it, adding plenty of room for new products and giving it a fresh new look.
Visit the City Bird website.
Fresh Corner Café
Noam Kimelman ('06, M.P.H. '12) was investigating food access in Detroit as a student in U-M's School of Public Health management and policy program when he realized that, although there were more than a thousand corner stores in the city, there were a startlingly low number of quality groceries.
"I thought if we could figure out how to transform the corner store from unhealthy food retailer to healthy food retailer, we could have a dramatic multiplier effect on the health of the community," says Kimelman.
From this, the seeds of Fresh Corner Café L3C were sown. A fresh food delivery and catering service, the business covers an expansive area of the city. In addition to traditional catering, it offers innovative services to local businesses, such as providing a refrigerator it keeps regularly stocked with delicious and healthy pre-made meals for employees to purchase through an app on their smartphones. It also works to connect other neighborhood businesses, such as the Peaches and Greens Produce Market, to healthy food suppliers.
Kimelman hopes that as Fresh Corner Café continues to expand, he can increase access to affordable, nutritious food for all Detroiters.

2934 Russell Street
For nearly 125 years, a Detroiter in want of a bouquet of fragrant, fresh-picked flowers, plump red tomatoes, or even a fine cut of rib-eye steak could wander to Eastern Market on Saturdays, strolling through sheds with thousands of other bargain hunters. Now, thanks to Fiona Ruddy ('10), they can do it on Tuesdays and Sundays, too.
Ruddy, Eastern Market's director of food access programs, was the driving force behind Eastern Market Tuesdays, which launched in 2011. The Tuesday markets are held from June through October and feature many new fruit, vegetable, and flower vendors. In addition, Eastern Market recently launched the Sunday Street Market, which showcases locally made jewelry, home goods, and art alongside other Michigan-made products.
Ruddy says her interests ultimately lie in uniting the community and increasing local access to healthy food. "These markets are great because they're community meeting spaces where people can meet and convene…and hopefully buy some kale," she laughs.

Detroit Institute of Bagels
Nestled behind a tiny verdant park in an unassuming red-brick building—a space that feels simultaneously modern and welcoming—sits the first non-chain bagel joint in Detroit in years, the Detroit Institute of Bagels. Who's behind it? Two LSA graduates: brothers Ben ('06, M.U.P. '10) and Dan ('10, B.B.A. '10) Newman.
"We started thinking about what kind of [business] would attract both residents and visitors, and we realized that bagels were a glaring thing that was missing in Detroit," says Ben.
Pairing a desire to bring life to a vacant building and a dream to bring "fine bagels to the masses," the brothers Newman began in 2011 by launching a successful, crowd-sourced campaign to buy a commercial oven, and then baked their way to buying their store in 2013. They cook their bagels the old-fashioned way, by first boiling, then baking them. And among the more traditional fare, you'll also find delightful new options like bacon cheddar bagels with Sriracha lentil spread.
Ultimately, the brothers and their bagel business aim to "make Detroit a better place to live," says Dan.

Michigan Community Scholars Program at the Brightmoor Youth Garden
15081 Grayfield Street
In 2006, Riet Schumack and Sheila Hoerauf, residents of the Brightmoor neighborhood on Detroit's northwest side, joined forces to create the Brightmoor Youth Garden, a green space that encourages local kids to get involved with growing their own food, and that fosters important relationships. When others saw the positive impact the garden had, their efforts expanded into a community group called Neighbors Building Brightmoor.
Almost from the beginning, U-M student volunteers from the Michigan Community Scholars Program (MCSP) have been lending a hand. MCSP, a Michigan Learning Community, connects students with a wide variety of academic interests and a commitment to community service to projects and courses that develop their leadership skills and encourage civil engagement.
Through the years, student groups, seminar participants, and undergraduates have collaborated with Neighbors Building Brightmoor to work on the youth garden and learn about the people and history of the neighborhood. One MCSP course, Christine Modey's English seminar called "Food, Justice, and Community," collaborated with Brightmoor residents in 2011 to create a collection of neighborhood recipes and stories, which chronicled the area's renaissance.
"There's nothing like a hands-on experience to meet people, form relationships, and see things [students] may have read about," says Wendy Woods, associate director of MCSP. "It enables them to form their own ideas about the city and other urban issues."
MCSP will host a day of service in Brightmoor on September 6, 2014, to ring in the academic year by helping with community projects and touring the new "Brightmoor Farmway."

Q: Enabling both local and remote connections to a mysql server on linux (ubuntu) Is there any way to enable both remote connections and connections via "localhost" to a mysql server. I tried adding both
bind-address = 127.0.0.1

and
bind-address = externalIP

but it just used the one later in the file
Is this something that is possible or will I have to just use one?

A: You can set it to:
bind-address = 0.0.0.0

Which will allow both. "If the address is 0.0.0.0, the server accepts TCP/IP connections on all server host IPv4 interfaces. "

Edit PDF Documents – Best PDF Editors for free in 2019 & 2020
Editing PDF documents is the toughest job that most people have to deal with. Converting PDF files into word documents can be time taking and hectic specially when you have a deadline. In such situation using PDF editors is the best solution that you have.
If you are looking to Edit PDF Documents, you must have thought of using Adobe's products. But those products are paid, and you might not be able to afford that. Good for you, though, for there are free alternatives out there.
Here are the best free editors to help edit PDF documents, and maybe even more:
AbleWord
AbleWord is not only a PDF editor, it is a complete word processing application. That edit documents in the most popular document formats that are available right now. Look at it like this.
AbleWord is like a love child of Word and Adobe, adding features from both.
The only negative thing about AbleWord that we notice is that the support for this free word processing software end in 2015. Thus, it may not be able to support PDFs that have the latest PDF viewers in mind.
AbleWord may also run into bugs and issues with your latest Windows version. Because, as we mention earlier, it has no recent update. AbleWord also doesn't work on any other platform except Windows.
PDFsam (Basic)
In our opinion, the most full-featured pdf editor in this list is PDFsam. PDFsam is free, and open-source and gets updated every now and then. It is available on most platforms: Windows, Linux and Mac, and there are many variants out there. But the Basic variant is the most effective, and smallest version. That is design to split, merge, mix and rotate PDF pages, as a PDF editor.
PDFsam works on 64-bit hardware, but they have a dedicate portion for 32-bit hardware too. If you are running old hardware. You can also compile your own version of PDFsam, adding and removing features on your whim.
PDF Shaper
PDF Shaper combines the features of PDFsam basic and adds different other options. Though originally available to buy commercially, there is a free version available for use on a personal basis. PDF Shaper helps add, remove or extract all kinds of content to or from a PDF file, effectively. PDF shaper also gives you the option to add a watermark to each file, so you can use it for your university project without having to worry about the file(s) getting pirated.
PDF-XChange Viewer is the fastest PDF reader available for use. XChange Viewer comes with built in OCR, a technology which allows the computer to read actual characters off images. You can use this viewer to automatically convert text from an image into editable text, without having to rely on typewriting or gimmicks that might not even work.
PDF-XChange Viewer is available for Windows platforms, from Windows XP onwards. Because it is design for Windows XP, you may run into some visual issues with Windows 10, though because it packs so many features in a free application, anyone will be willing to look over that.
Conclusion for Edit PDF Documents
DJ Mixing – Best Software and Tools for DJs
There are many other "Free" PDF viewers available online, but we have personally tested these ones, and are sure that they will probably not steal your data, like many free tools available on the internet are so keen to do. You can select the one that meets your demands perfectly.
