For the Star Wars Lover

If you have a member of your family who can't wait for The Rise of Skywalker or loves The Mandalorian, Outer Rim is the game for them. Choose from characters such as Han Solo, Boba Fett, and Jyn Erso as you smuggle cargo, track down bounties, hire crew, or fight patrols of an opposing faction. Your reputation is on the line as you strive to be the most infamous scoundrel in the Outer Rim!

For Someone Who Loves Deck-Building Games

Mystic Vale places you in the role of a powerful druid trying to lift the curse on your lands. Using the revolutionary card-crafting system, you create your own unique cards. This is done by placing the clear cards you gain for your deck over existing ones already in your deck, creating unique and potentially powerful combinations! Use the cards you create to claim the different vales, giving you various powers and victory points.


Add in one of the expansions for even more unique abilities and mechanics to this excellent deck-building game.
