New Game Round-up: Visit Frontier Skies, Develop Networks for Tea Sales, Kill Animal Zombies & More

In Frontier Skies, players will compete to build the finest airship while managing their crew, stockpiling supplies and maintaining their valuable discoveries. In the end, only the most cunning captain can rule the frontier skies as the richest adventurer around!

In more detail, Frontier Skies consists of four seasons, spanning a total of twelve rounds of play. Each round consists of four phases: market, adventure, trade and draw. During the market phase, players compete in an open market to purchase new and upgraded parts for their airship. Purchasing new ship parts improves speed, attack power and cargo capacity, giving players special bonuses and extra space to carry valuable discoveries.

In the adventure phase, players embark on a new journey by revealing the top card in the adventure deck. The trade phase allows players to trade discoveries with each other, deciding which are worth keeping and which should be sold off to gain gold and free up cargo capacity for their next adventure. During the draw phase, players activate special abilities, gain an additional discovery, and compete for end-of-season and end-of-game goals which reward players with even more gold.

At the end of the final round, each player calculates their total value to find out which captain has amassed the greatest riches!

In Yunnan, players try to improve the characteristics of their merchants and expand their merchant network in order to transport tea to distant provinces. By building mountain roads and trading posts, transport costs can be permanently reduced. The more influence that merchants have, the better protected they are from competition and the capricious behavior of the provincial commissioner. Even so, foreign merchants can still be expelled.

With a strong, developed trading empire, a player will earn many victory points and with those points victory.

In Zombies!!! 12: Zombie Zoo, the zoo has been infected and the animals are turning into zombies! The monkeys have escaped, but you still have the ability to override the automatic release on the other cages in the zoo. You must reach these cages in time or the animals will break loose, making your job even harder.

The Battle for Sector 219 uses the same rules and game mechanisms as The Battle for Hill 218 but with new units. In the game, each player fields an army, represented by cards, and tries to occupy his opponent's base while protecting his own. You must maintain your supply lines and destroy enemy units to conquer the enemy base while protecting your own.
