System: Shuffling Horror
Sneak peek at the next release in the GameWick Games Shuffling Horror line! This cinematic card-n-dice game captures the feel of a 1950s sci-fi movie where players have to watch the skies and fight for their lives. With each passing turn, a central card pool reveals horrible events and menacing aliens. One player commands the aliens, while all others try to thwart their efforts and stay one step ahead of the alien shuffle. If a player is eliminated by the aliens, they are not out of the game… they just beam back into the movie as an alien pod person! Just who will be the last one standing when the screen fades to black?

System: Shuffling Horror
Grim thrills and chills await in Pittsburgh 68, a card-n-dice game that plays like a creepy, classic zombie movie! With each passing turn, a central card pool reveals horrible events and ravenous zombies. Players do their best to stay one step ahead of the zombie shuffle as they face an ever growing zombie problem (which they might end up being a part of). When a player is eliminated, they are not out of the game… they just shuffle back as a zombie in classic Living Dead style! Just who will be the last one standing when the screen fades to black? Pittsburgh 68 is the first release in the GameWick Games Shuffling Horror line.

Sci Fi Double Feature: Aliens + Zombies
System: Shuffling Horror
Shuffling Horror awaits! Have some fun at our Roswell 51 sneak peek party and play one of our Shuffling Horror games: Roswell 51 or Pittsburgh 68. This cinematic card-n-dice game system pits one player against all others. The Master of Horror controls the movie and the monsters, while all other players try to survive the four reels of the horror flick. In Roswell 51, the survivors face a terrifying alien invasion. In Pittsburgh 68, they face an ever-growing zombie horde. The terror grows as players are eliminated and then join the monster side. Equal parts strategy and luck, Shuffling Horror plays out like a classic horror movie experience. Just who will be the last one standing when the screen fades to black?

NO-ROLL-ARK-KARDThat Old Skool Dunge O Doom
System: WEGS Old Skool Fantasy RPG
A rag-tag party of sword-n-sorcery heroes are plunged into the randomly generated dungeon run by Dingbitt, a devilish halfling rogue. His magic dungeon is chock full of treasure, traps and monsters. The deeper the party delves, the bigger the booty (and the greater the peril, of course). It is up to the heroes to decide what it shall be: fabulous trove, worthy opponents or, perhaps, just to find a way out? Priorities change fast after you leave Level 1! The session begins with a quick Old Skool Fantasy character generation. Four dice fuel the game (2d6 and 2d10) and the rules are designed for full throttle sword-n-sorcery exploits. Fun rules. Wild dice rolls. Wicked adventure!
