Rust and Revenue

From Jack Neal 

is a 1 to 3 player game inspired by the economic tension of 18XX titles.

Each turn, you roll three dice to choose a company and an action—build, buy, or invest. Shares become more expensive over time, and companies receive dividends based on route performance. As newer trains enter the game, older ones rust, pushing you to optimize timing and anticipate obsolescence. Each action pushes a railroad to produce less revenue for the President of that company. Timing share and operational actions is nuanced and based on the dice and the game state.

With multiple maps, procedural setup, and minimalist rules, Rust and Revenue offers meaningful decisions in a compact, replayable system. It rewards players who enjoy economic planning, route optimization, and clever long-term thinking—without needing a full table or multi-hour commitment.

Designed for players who love 18XX, cube rails, or tight economic puzzles, this game captures the spirit of railroad expansion with elegant constraints and a touch of rust.

Grum Hall

From Zonware

“Grum Hall is a tabletop roleplaying game set in a resort plagued by a creeping dread that snakes its way through the Hall’s very bones. The Hall has been run by a decaying super computer named Mora for decades now, and the once curious computer is becoming more chaotic and controlling by the day. Take up the mantle as a Maintenance Crew, accept jobs from the gaunt Bartender, and accompany sparking computer consoles throughout the endless halls of Grum. Your job is to upkeep Grum Hall, but the Hall may not like your meddling here.

Please enjoy your stay.

Seized!

By Monica Rubits

Seized! is a face-paced, table-slapping card game that keeps players on their toes.  Inspired by the game Ghost Blitz, we wanted to create a game with similar rules but was compact enough to be played anywhere.  We’ve also added alternate rules to make the game even more challenging.
