Far north, in a remote winter country, rivers are frozen most of the year. When the villages along the river are eventually accessible, a small river cruise company offers exotic tours such as polar bear safaris, reindeer rides, ice fishing and more. Lucky tourists might even get the chance to see the Northern Lights. You work as a tour guide and try to attract tourists to your guide boats for spectacular excursions. Riverside is a different kind of roll-and-write game: the game comes with a modular board, which puts together the route for the game. On a river cruise boat, everyone follows the same route, but you can take your tourists on different tours. You can plan ahead, but be careful, the dice may force you to change your plans. You start each round by rolling dice into a common pool. At the same time, each player chooses a die of a specific color (without physically taking it) and fills the seats on the matching companion boat on their own player sheet. Each time they completed a row of seats, they sold a group ticket in the corresponding color (excursion). The longer the line, the more points they get. In addition, this ticket is valid for the rest of the game: every time they go on an excursion to a village of this color, they take this group with them to earn even more points. The player with the most points wins the game. Each dice color represents tourists with a preference for a certain type of excursion. The transparent green die is "wild" and represents the Northern Lights, something everyone wants to see. Riverside offers tough decision-making within a short playing time: some rows are short with low points and bonuses, while other rows are long with higher points and bonuses. Which one do you start filling? Within each guide boat you have to score higher and higher, so taking too many tourists on your first excursions can be fatal. Players are rewarded if they manage to please all five types of tourists, so maybe you should score a new color instead of scoring really high in another color? Higher dice represent tourists that freeze and cost fire symbols to get. The "wild" green die always costs fire symbols! You have a limited number of fire symbols to use, so when is the right time to use them?

You have been the first pioneer to reach the new land and place your buildings along the river. Soon the entire land between mountains and forest belongs to your settlement. But how will your settlement further develop into a prosperous community? The four different campaigns tell the story of your own city. In My City Roll & Write you lead your city to ever greater successes in 12 different levels. In order, three levels each form their own campaign with an associated theme and its own rules. This way you start with the first steps of your settlement and you will have to deal with more and more new challenges per game, such as the development of churches and the arrival of bandits. Each turn you roll dice to see which new city district you should fill in on your score sheet. The smarter you do this, the more points you collect. Points award a winner per game, but can also be saved so that a winner is only announced at the end of a three-part campaign. My City Roll & Write is fast and compact, but also tactical and challenging. The campaigns provide plenty of variation. The no fewer than 192 sheets of the score pad ensure that each level can be played multiple times. Moreover, this roll & write can be played solo or in a group of six players. Who builds the best city?

Three Sisters is a strategic backyard roll-and-write game. Three Sisters is named after an indigenous agricultural technique still widely used today, in which three different crops – in this case pumpkins, corn and beans – are planted close together. Corn provides a place for beans to climb, the beans transfer nitrogen from the air into the soil, and the squash provides a natural ground cover to reduce weeds and keep pests away. In the game you have your own player sheet with multiple areas: the garden, which is divided into six numbered zones, each containing the three types of crops; the apiary; compost; perennials; goods; fruit; and the shed, which is filled with tools with special skills. All crops, fruits, flowers, and beehives are represented by tracks that you mark when you purchase these items. Many of the tracks are interconnected with other elements in the game, giving you bonuses along the way. A common feature of these tracks are circles representing a harvest, which generates goods; get enough goods and you will unlock bonus promotions. Progressing on all of these tracks offers varying amounts of points, progress and bonuses.

Motor City is a strategic roll-and-write game about running a car factory during Detroit's heyday. In Motor City you have two player skins, each with multiple areas.

Progressing on all of these tracks earns varying amounts of points, progress and bonuses. The game lasts eight rounds. Each round you roll colored dice based on the number of players and place them on spots on the blueprint table based on value and color. Each player chooses a die and uses it. Once everyone has chosen a die twice, all players may use the remaining die on the blueprint table. After eight rounds, you score points for your progress in engineering, assembly, testing and more. The one with the most points wins. Motor City has a solo mode where you try to beat your own score against an auditor who chooses dice and blocks off areas on your sheet. The difficulty level can be easily adjusted by changing the colors of the dice during setup, without any additional rules. Motor City is game 3 of the Motor City Gameworks Loaded Roll and Write series.

The kingdom is gathering again, but the work of El Cascadero and his ministers has only just begun. Many challenges and opportunities await the kingdom. Bandits threaten to overwhelm the cities, rivers offer new forms of travel, trade continues to grow and the borders must be defended. Cascadito is the smaller counterpart of the large board game, Cascadero, designed by Reiner Knizia. Each player receives their own sheet of paper and a pencil. 6 dice are rolled and players take turns choosing a die to fill in a space on their card. The dice show 5 colors, representing the 5 types of cities on the map. When a colored die is chosen, the player fills in a space adjacent to a city of the same color. By reaching cities with groups of filled spaces, players will activate city points. If players plan their routes wisely, these successes can trigger a cascade of combinations to give them a competitive advantage in earning public achievements and private bonuses. The game ends immediately when all public achievements have been completed or when a player has achieved all private bonuses. Players then add up their successes and achievements to determine the winner.

The Caribbean classic with pirates is back! The harbor of Port Royal is more vibrant than ever and players need to find more sailors as quickly as possible. On distant islands they will recruit useful crew members and plunder treasures. A pair of dice puts them in unpredictable situations, and the more they risk, the further they can travel across their own map. In Port Royal - The Dice Game, players exchange their cards for dice and pencils, but the goal remains the same: hire the most skilled crew and seek your fortune on the open seas. They travel to nearby islands to recruit new crew members and gain their valuable skills, but if they push their luck too far, they could end up in Davey Jones' vault! Each round in Port Royal - The Dice Game has two phases: first the active player rolls the dice and the game board fills with different colored ship and ship wheel tokens. The more chips you can place the better, and you can roll the dice as many times as you like. But if the same ship appears twice and can't be repelled with the help of your crew, then it's a dark day - the player rolling the dice ends up empty-handed, while the others at the table can line their pockets. If the active player manages to stop in time, they can exchange tokens for actions on their own game board, allowing them to either reach new islands or gain first access to new effects. Who will manage to sail away from the other players?
