Hoyuk: Anatolia comes to a new Era
Anatolia
is an expansion of Hoyuk,a tile-laying eurogame where 5 clans try to
take over the valley by building the best Village. In Hoyuk you must
lead your clan to victory or the valley may be no longer your home. Now
the world is moving into a new era and now more than ever the clans work
for the progress and the evolution of their community. Everyone tries
to find new ways to make their lives better, new means to grow their
lands, constructions and artifacts that create an easier life. In
Anatolia you must prove your quality through three different
Achievements: to create an Irrigation System for your village so the
water can reach your land, to throw the best Fest in the valley, and
finally to build two Artifacts! Anatolia is currently funding on Kickstarter for
two more days, One more campaign is active for Anatolia, on German
crowdfunding website Spieleschmiede for the localization of the game.
Three weeks left for the Spieleschmiede project and you can check it here.

Raid Trade invades Europe and new titles are on the way
2014
was a year full of new games but also many changes for MAGE Company.
Now at the light of the new year we are ready to release our new games
and announce our new partners. We are happy to announce that Edge
Entertainment will publish the Spanish and French Version of Raid &
Trade, and MAGE Company will publish the English version. Raid &
Trade will be released on June. Raid & Trade - a game of
negotiation and resource management for 3-5 players set in a
post-apocalyptic universe. From the ashes of a devastating third World
War, a precious few golden cities emerge offering hope to those who
struggle for survival in the wastelands. Players explore the ruins of
the modern world completing quests, honing their skills and maneuvering
for social status in order to claim a precious spot as a citizen with a
Golden City.
To enter the golden city you must:
Become an expert: Reach 20 skill points.
Serve the city: Fulfill three secret quests.
Become a nobleman: Get the most possible character points.
In each turn, the players can spend action points to do several actions such as moving through the city, raiding buildings, attacking other players, and more. Each player has a specific skill — mechanic, trader, electrician, bodyguard and medic — and has his own unique items to build; those items can be traded off against other items or resources. The board of the game is modular so that in every game you have a new map to discover. All over the map, the players find different buildings which they can raid. Each time a player raids a building, a raid card of this type of building is taken and read, which leads to specific circumstances taking place. The player will be made to make various decisions including important moral decisions! Upon resolving the various decisions, you will receive character points. The choices you make, for good or for bad, will lead to specific perks and advantages (or disadvantages) during the progress of the game. When raiding a building, you get resources (tools, scraps, mechanics, electronics, etc.). By combining these resources, you can craft items with special abilities. By doing so, you will advance your skill points. Every player also gets secret quests of the golden city. To fulfill these quests, the players have to spend the resources mentioned on the card. To fulfill a quest will not only lead the players closer to victory but also give them advantages for the rest of the game.
On
March we will release 12 Realms: Ancestors Legacy, 12 Realms: Ghost
Town and 12 Realms: Ghost Galleon. Ghost Galleon will be available only
through our Online Shop and
BoardGameGeek store. On June we will release Hoyuk: Anatolia and the
reprint of Hoyuk base game. Pre-Orders are always available via MAGE
Company Online Shop.

12 Realms: Bedtime Story
12
Realms returns in the penultimate expansion, titled Bedtime Story. The
game takes on a whole new level, as it invades beloved bedtime stories
and exotic tales alike. Atlantis Realm is about to face a terrible sea
threat, Pinocchio is trying to save the Clockwork Shire, a god rises in
Tang Dynasty, and a mad man threats Horrorville. Players will have to
challenge new even more powerful invaders, overcome extreme adversities
such as flooding map tiles and timed areas and even resist the desire to
join the Dark Lords in their everlasting campaign to plunge the Realms
into Darkness. But all is not lost, as the players will be able to
recruit even more powerful Heroes, visit new famous special buildings,
and acquire a plethora of new and powerful Talents. Will the Heroes
manage to save the Realms this time, or will the Master Dark Lord cast
his shadow over them, forever damning them to become nightmarish
versions of the tales that once lulled us all to sleep?
