Friends & Dragons is a turn based strategy game with a theme of reclamation around heroes taking back their fantasy world from monsters. You rebuild your town and gather heroes, each with unique combinations of abilities! With a growing cast of characters you dungeon crawl through different zones exploring and defeating monsters as you grow stronger. F&D has a campaign mode as well as events which happen throughout the week to help keep the experience fresh for new and old players. Our heroes have unique combinations of traits and all fall into certain elements with some being stronger against others but not to an extent where you'll suffer greatly for not metagaming your team's composition. Utilizing a tile based system the player actively drags and moves units around the field with a time restriction. You can also use whichever unit you're controlling to "flip" and move around your other units to adjust their positioning. The result is a low skill floor but high skill ceiling experience where you can essentially move your entire team in one turn to their perfect positions with enough foresight. This creates some insanely satisfying level clears if done right.

Glitchhikers: The Spaces Between is a chill game about the places that your mind goes when it is free to wander. Take short nighttime journeys unencumbered a destination, and leverage the transformative power of liminal spaces and conversations with strangers.

In each journey you encounter Hikers: curious, otherworldly characters who skip the small talk and cut straight to the kinds of questions that we all ask ourselves in the dark. Questions about our identity, our place in the world, and how to make sense of the chaos surrounding us and still believe in the wonder, beauty, and kindness that persists in spite of it all.
