MINE 77
MINE 77

PRICE CHANGES FROM 23.11.2026 ON

Mine 77 is a stand-alone prequel to Factory 42, where you take on the challenging role of an overseer in Odrixia's largest mine. Navigate government mandates and negotiate with fellow overseers while filling your own pockets.

Mine 77 gameplay revolves around two connected rondels - an underground production rondel and an above-ground ‘town’ rondel. The game utilizes a simultaneous action selection process using work-order cards. There is an incentive to cooperate and interact with your fellow Overseers, as every second round, the Government will check that Overseers collectively have completed the set goal - and, if need be, collectively punish slackers. A sneaky Overseer may opt to evade the collective punishment by gathering rosettes (tokens of communal esteem).

Mine 77 seamlessly weaves the theme into each game mechanic, requiring players to select their path to victory. Since there are a limited number of actions available, you can't pursue every option. The path you choose may differ significantly from the paths chosen by your opponents. Every game will offer a fresh new challenge for the players.

Thematically dark, dangerous, and rich in depth, the game’s setting, imagery, and style of play immerse players in a grim world of Dwarven commerce. Unlike the flashy, surface-level aesthetics of other lesser games, Mine 77 truly engages players in a dark, subterranean environment filled with Dwarven lore.

Mine77 is a game focused on worker placement, resource management, hand management, and yes, even beer.

BEASTS AND DIPLOMACY
BEASTS AND DIPLOMACY

PRICE CHANGES FROM 23.11.2026 ON

Beasts and Diplomacy is a card drafting, tableau-building game where players become Knights of the land of Aterra, competing to assemble the best Exhibition of wild and rare Beasts that appeal to the Diplomats of the land. Players must also try to fulfill their secret Quests while ensuring they have enough Ore to maintain their ever-growing Maintenance costs. Like many card drafting games, Beasts and Diplomacy offers interactions like players taking cards before others can get to them, however, unlike other drafting games the design focus isn't on scarcity, but on opportunity. As you play you will have to constantly react to your opponents' actions and formulate new short term plans to achieve your long term goal of having the most balanced Exhibition. When one door closes, several new ones open. It's up to you to find your own path.

While the game's actions are fundamentally simple (e.g. icon matching and drafting), Beasts and Diplomacy offers lots of depth and replayability. Your first playthroughs will leave you with a sense that you are just scratching the surface of what is possible, but with experience you'll learn to manage risk, finances, and action sequencing, which will lead to highly tense and competitive playthroughs.

After 3 days of drafting cards, undercutting each other and building the perfect exhibition, your exhibitions will be evaluated by your Diplomats and your secret Quests. The Knight with the most Influence Points wins!

The game includes a rulebook, a short learn-to-play guide, and player aids in English and German. Cards are text-free except for the card names.
