Bitewing Games

The kingdom is reuniting, but the work of El Cascadero and his ministers has only begun. Many challenges and opportunities await the kingdom. Bandits threaten to overwhelm the towns, rivers present new modes of travel, trade continues to grow, and the borders must be defended.   Cascadito is the smaller spiritual sibling to Reiner Knizia’s big box tile placement strategy game, Cascadero. Each player receives their own sheet and a pencil. 6 dice are rolled, and players take turns drafting a die used to fill in a space on their map. The dice display 5 colors, representing the 5 town types on the map. When a colored die is chosen, the player fills in a space adjacent to a matching colored town.   By reaching towns with groups of filled in spaces, players will trig..

Gussy Gorillas are a peculiar group of primates that strive to keep each other gussied up and well-groomed. Through social grooming, these apes remove dirt, insects, and debris from the difficult-to-reach and difficult-to-see places of each other’s fur. Reciprocation is expected and awarded in this kind of monkey business! The player who acquires the most diverse and exotic collection of groomed goods will earn the respect of their fellow primates and be awarded the golden banana of victory.   In Gussy Gorillas, players start out with a personal deck of face-down cards. Without looking at the card(s) in their hand, players simultaneously trade or keep their hand, one or two cards at a time, to form a personal collection. Once all cards have been traded or kept, players tall..

This mini expansion replaces one random card in each row during setup. Each individual card only indicates the row or column where a treasure or curse can be found. Only by finding the pair of special cards can you uncover the exact location of a treasure or curse; the pair will tell you the row and column of the item — the intersection of the row and column is the location of the item.   Because these treasures are harder to find, each one has a value of 36! But beware, these cards also introduce an extra curse introducing the possibility of a fifth cursed location! At the end of the game, the new treasures are awarded as in the base game (evenly split between the surrounding players). ..

Dit is de kickstarter Deluxe versie.   Trailblazers are the gutsy folks who pave and brave the trails of the great outdoors.  Whether by hiking boots, cycling wheels, or river paddle, these tenacious travelers seek to feed their insatiable appetite for adventure.  With a scenic wilderness ever ahead and a freshly charted path upon the heels, one mustn’t forget to eventually find their way back to camp.  For there are always new environments to explore, further expeditions to undertake, and more trails to blaze.   In Trailblazers, players compete to earn the most points by building biking, hiking, and kayaking loops from their campsites of the matching trail type. Each round, players are dealt eight trail cards where they’ll draft two cards, arran..

Dit is de deluxe versie: Deluxe Edition upgrades all 102 cardboard laurel tokens to weighted clay poker chips, all 14 cardboard animal ability tokens to wood, and replaces all 7 cardstock paper animal screens with thick cardboard.   What if the animals were the ones who ran the zoo?   …Presumably, this wild government would be built upon the support of fellow creatures and fueled by the fame, attention, and prestige of wide-eyed visitors. Naturally, the most aspirational beasts would lobby for a position in the star exhibit, and the lead star would be elected Zoo Mascot.   In order to join the star exhibit, each species must campaign its way up the hierarchy of enclosures with the majority support of animal voters. And the lead star will be the spe..
