New Game Round-up: Neuroshima Hex Has a New/Old Home, Catan Establishes Itself in Egypt & DC Comes to Dice Masters

In Catan: Ancient Egypt, players now live in the time of the Pharaohs and use their oxcarts to move resources to build small villages and great temples styled after some of the most interesting buildings of Egyptian antiquity. As always, you must beware of the robber! His chariot can interrupt production at your cattle pastures, papyrus groves and quarries.

After you master the Catan: Ancient Egypt base game, you can try these variants:

• Help from the Gods: Ten god cards are now available to player, with their powers adding a variety of options for dynamic gameplay.

• The Great Pyramid: Players can now build and move papyrus boats across the Nile to compete for the pharaoh's blessing and the vizier's favor by building blocks onto the great pyramid.

The DC Dice Masters: Justice League Starter Set, the fifth starter release for the Dice Masters game, has everything two players need to play and allows players to increase their Dice Masters collection or jump into the game fresh!

DC Dice Masters: Justice League features fan favorite characters from a variety of Justice Leagues, including Batman, Wonder Woman, Superman, Zatanna, and Martian Manhunter. With gameplay that supports two players in epic dice battles, DC Dice Masters: Justice League lets players build their own version of the Justice League — or even the Legion of Doom!

Carnac is a simple fast abstract strategy game for two players. On your turn, you take a Megalith — a piece formed by two cubes joined together — from the common reserve, and place it on the board in a standing position. The turn passes to your opponent if he is willing to tip over the Megalith or if the Megalith cannot be tipped over.

A player owns a square if it is covered by a Megalith showing his color on the upper face. A Dolmen is a group of at least three adjacent squares belonging to the same player. The game is won by the player with the most Dolmens; in case of a tie, the player with the largest Dolmen wins.
