Crowdfunding Round-up: Dead Drop, Hooch, Knee Jerk, Of Dungeons Deep, and the Greatest Name for a Game Ever

Armies of Riddle is an exciting new game in which players battle to defeat their opponents' crystal shard. It will be available in Physical (Tabletop Game) form as well as a Mobile full 3D edition for iOS, Android, Windows Phone and Windows Store. Created by Mobile App Guru Abhinav Gupta who has already successfully created over 40+ Apps in over 10+ Markets with millions of downloads worldwide already.

Hooch is a game set during the Prohibition Era of the 20th Century. Players build a criminal syndicate from the ground up, earning respect points by completing missions, attacking opposing store fronts and making bathtub gin. From back alley deals to buying your way into City Hall, Hooch has it all. Play your cards right and you'll run the streets of Temperance Town.

Dead Drop is a game that involves elements of memory, deduction, and crafty maneuvering. As secret agents working for different organizations, players scour the globe seeking information that will help them find the location of a hidden explosive device. Agents must trade information and sell secrets in order to learn the location of the device and grab it before it falls into the hands of another agency!

On a player's turn, you must choose one of the following actions:

• Share Info: Trade one card from your hand with one card from any other agent. The target agent must trade and may not look at the card she is being given before handing over her card to the active agent.

• Hack the Cache: Trade one card from your hand with one card in the cache. The card from your hand becomes a part of the cache and should be face up.

• Sell Secrets: Reveal two cards from your hand to another agent, who must then answer "yes" or "no" to reveal whether or not she has a card equal to the sum of those cards. If she says "yes", she must hand a card of that value to the active agent in exchange for one of the cards shown. The active agent chooses which card to hand over.

At the end of a turn, after performing a regular action, the active agent may choose to...

• Grab The Drop: Place two cards from your hand face up next to the card in the middle of the table. Then, secretly look at the card in the middle to determine whether this card is equal to the sum of the two face-up cards. If you guessed correctly, you win the round; if you're wrong, you're out of the round. (In a three- or four-player game, if an agent is eliminated, she must place her cards face up in front of her. Other agents may trade with an eliminated agent's cards by placing the card traded from their hand face up in place of the card they take.) The first player to win three rounds wins the game.

In Knee Jerk, you'll hear the start of a situation that you have to shout an ending to as quickly as possible. For example: "I Feel Panicked At The Beach Because I Saw ______!" You can shout anything, like, "A shark!", "A smoke monster!" or even "My grandmother in a bikini!"

The fastest player to shout a valid answer wins the point, but you have to outwit your friends; if two or more players answer, the host player picks his or her favorite. The games moves rapidly, switching from scene to scene in seconds, from Your First Date to A Haunted Mansion to Outer Space! The first player to gain three points is the winner.

Of Dungeons Deep! employs a few cool mechanisms that certainly will keep any player entertained. Let's take a look at a few of the highlights:

• Bluffing and Blind Bidding. Players are attempting to destroy the nasty creatures below in the dungeon to gain fame by playing cards face down and revealing simultaneously. Each enemy has a set number of hit points based on the number of players. There are three enemies to deal with in each level of the dungeon, so strategy, tactics, and bluffing are a must. There is also two rounds of bidding so players gain insight into what other players are up to.

• Deck Building. When a player defeats an enemy, that card is rotated 180 degrees and then added to the player's discard pile. The bottom of each monster card indicates what item the enemy is carrying. These items add power to your character in future rounds, and act as an organic and thematic way to show that your characters are advancing.

• Draft Your Unique Party. Before play begins, players complete a draft in order to create their starting hand of twelve cards. Each player gets one Hero and one Henchman. All characters are very unique and play quite differently from one another. This sets the bar high for replay value!

• No Downtime! Since all play is done simultaneously, no players are ever waiting on others for very long. This makes Of Dungeons Deep! one of the fastest dungeon delvers out there.
