Redwood is a game of movement estimations and angle of view where players have to take pictures of wild animals to compose the most beautiful panorama. The game is for 1 to 4 players, ages 10+ and the games last about 45-60 min.
During their turn, each player will have to choose between different movements and their angle of view (materialized by real plastic elements) to catch the animals in the picture (without disturbing them).
Collecting animals and decorative elements earn victory points.
During the game, new conditions for earning points will appear.
The game ends after 5 turns and players will be rewarded if they meet certain conditions to earn more points.
Welcome to Cytress. You play as a rebel merc who has zeroed in on one goal. To get into Stratos – Earth’s largest sky hub. It is in this sky colony where you will find Earth’s most powerful, wealthiest, and most influential individuals.
These people enjoy having the largest portion of the pie, not to mention toying with the lives of everyone else on Earth – the Underbelly, as the inhabitants of Stratos love to call it. But you are not the type who tolerates these kinds of apathetic, arrogant attitudes. You must challenge these oligarchs and get into Stratos; you consider this action to be a show of defiance, proof that the leviathan city is not exclusive to the powerful few. But first, you must establish a name in the Underbelly, a strategy that will help in getting you and your crew into Stratos. Unfortunately, this is a journey that's not free from danger. Stratos has tight security, and authorities have their eyes on the gates 24/7. Anyone caught entering illegally is subject to instant termination without trial.
Fortunately, you have found a way in. The Tubes – vertical shafts that serve as the city's waste chutes. The Tubes will be your one-way ticket to wonderland, your only chance of acquiring a large portion of the pie. Of course, you will need the help of your crew to get in. So hone your skills, upgrade your abilities, and procure as many supplies as possible to achieve your objective.
You must employ cunning strategies and pick the juiciest missions among the lot. Regardless of which faction you choose, remember to use their key abilities to your advantage. That’s how you can outwit the competition and eventually win the game. So do you have what it takes to become a part of Stratos' elite citizenry? Or do you want to live a continued oppressed existence in the Underbelly?
In a bold age of neo-humanistic advancement and technological breakthrough, life evolved, and the lines between biology and engineering blurred. The limits of possibility were shattered. A great civilization rose toward the stars, toward an enlightenment increasingly within reach. That civilization collapsed. How and why are long since forgotten. Chaos reigned. Technological understanding was lost to generations of strife and survivalism as time rendered everything (humanity included) into discarded scraps of what once was. In this fallen world, the last wretched vestiges of humanity vie for the only hope for significance that remains: leverage.
Vestige is a highly-strategic, competitive modern euro that you can play in an hour. It is built around a resource alchemy system modeled on the color wheel that offers great depth but can be understood almost instantly; for example, mix might (red) and cunning (yellow) to attain guile (orange). A modular game board; variable end-game conditions; and a card-tableau, engine-building heart makes every game crunchy, and combo-driven. Derived from Vindication, Vestige reimagines its systems in a new setting and with a new depth-to-approachability ratio.
Each turn you move around a randomly generated map of locations, each offering a unique action or effect. Visiting these locations you unlock your potential, spread your influence, develop your attributes, build your network of contacts across three factions (smugglers, mercenaries, lawmakers), and then work with that network to complete jobs your contacts are suited for (unearthing artifacts, claiming bounties, and developing augmentations). Through action selection, card-tableau combo building, area control, and careful resource management you seek to gain more leverage than your opponents, all while the powers-that-be use any and all insidious tricks at their disposal to keep you down where they want you.
