nMarvelous Mysteries contains three new cases to solve. In Fabian Essays you investigate the mysterious death of a Victorian lawyer. Has his ghost returned to accuse his killer? In The Forgery you follow the trail of a famous masterpiece that may have been replaced by a forgery and in Murder on the Sind Mail you discover that one man's train journey to Pakistan has a fatal outcome. For each case, you follow the directions, collect the evidence, and then identify who did it. And above all: why? The Games Friends: “ What a great card game this is. You have to solve different things in a unique way. Normally you get all the same information in detective games, but that is not the case with Sherlock Files. Because everyone has a handful of cards and is not allowed to play all the cards, you have to think carefully about what information you share and which information you discard. Highly recommended!”

In That Old Wallpaper you try to restore the wall of a house with wallpaper, matching as many patterns as possible. There are a number of locations available in the game where wallpaper cards are up for grabs. Each turn, players simultaneously choose a location, and if you are the only one who chooses a location, you receive the card or cards at that location. If you choose the same location as someone else, everyone will receive a "blurry memory card" with a wallpaper pattern along only one edge instead of all four edges. If you receive regular wallpaper cards, you should immediately add them to your other played cards, ideally matching the pattern halves to create a complete pattern. Patterns come in four colors, with each color having two sizes. There is also a joker pattern available, which seems a bit strange, but so be it. To end a turn, you deal a new wallpaper card to each location, which means some locations will likely have more cards than others. At the end of the game, use your blurry memory cards to complete patterns on the edge of your wallpaper, then score for each color of the pattern. A pattern's score is the number of large symbols of that color multiplied by the number of small symbols, so if you don't have at least one large and small symbol, you won't score anything for that color!

Enigma: Beyond Code is a deduction game. Victory depends on your ability to understand other players' motives and find the cards you need - while keeping others away from the cards they are looking for. Each game lasts 5-10 minutes and it is best to play Enigma: Beyond Code up to three wins. In the beginning, each player receives a character card depicting a cryptology expert who has arrived at the Agency's home to crack the Enigma code. But only one of them is the real decrypter; the others just masterfully pose as cryptologists. Each of them has a unique secret mission. To complete their characters' missions, players take turns looking at mansion cards; each of these cards represents a room or an object in the mansion. The invited experts work as a team, meaning that when you look at a mansion map, you have to tell others what is there. You can lie or tell the truth - it depends on your goals. Lying is always a risk, while telling the truth can make your opponents win. The player who completes his character's mission first wins the game. If no one does this within the game's time limit, chaos will break out in our world and all players will lose!

Pharaoh is dead and his burial barge is sailing slowly down the Nile to his grave where his spirit will stand before Osiris' judgment. Pharaoh had no descendants, so tradition holds that the country's governors must build monuments in Pharaoh's honor so that Osiris will favor his spirit in the afterlife. Accordingly, Pharaoh's successor will be the governor who builds the greatest tribute to the late king. Resources and workers are limited, the gods are fickle, and time is short; the memorials must be completed before the ship reaches the temple of Osiris at Men-nefer. Sailing Toward Osiris is a euro-style, worker-placement, resources management, project completion and no direct conflict game. Downtime is kept to a minimum via a single-action, round-and-round turn structure that emphasizes timing decisions and subtle strategies.
