  • Somewhere In The Heavens… They Are Waiting

    is a fully cooperative, action-adventure experience based on the beloved Mac computer game "Marathon", for 2 to 6 players. It’s the year 2155 and a large asteroid is headed toward Earth. It’s estimated that the asteroid, dubbed Wormwood, will reach earth’s atmosphere in 24 days. Meanwhile, you are an officer aboard the Gryphon, an AI controlled space cruiser, when your employer alerts you of your next mission. It sounds simple enough. A standard security check on an abandoned nuclear power facility. You will slowly uncover truths that connect to the fast approaching artifact.

    Players will use an action point system to navigate through space finding the necessary technologies needed to stop the asteroid. One player will play as the ship A.I., Gabriel, using a web-app to guide the 1-5 Officer players on planetary missions to accomplish the goals necessary to win. Officer players will acquire upgrades to their suits and weapons to fight against the threats attempting to keep the asteroid on its course. Missions will take you through space to industrial facilities, military strongholds, and alien architecture.

  • Dispel The Darkness is a cooperative game for 1 to 3 players.

    A cooperative, light-weight RPG, card drafting, dice rolling experience, with a compelling story that drives you to the final reveal. As players progress through the story making choices presented by the 80+ page Story books, they gain experience (XP). XP is then used to fuel the armor and skills of each Volunteer, creating powerful combos between weapons and skills. Story Battles introduced throughout the game will challenge players to more strategic fights. Volunteers must be well-balanced with both attack and defense skills if they are to survive the adventure.

    The Curse is growing stronger. The terrifying effects are noticeable by all who live in Oakhaven. The Crown Prince has sent out a call for help to find the cause of the Curse, which he believes to be Ancient scrolls. By destroying them, he can be rid of the Curse once and for all. You are a commoner looking for adventure. You are one of the few who choose to be a “Volunteer”... those who decide to answer the call. The goal is simple: Make your way to the castle to meet the Crown Prince and hear his request. He needs 6 ancient scrolls that uphold the curse. Find the scrolls so they can be destroyed. The scrolls are guarded by the Dark Guardians and no one has been successful in retrieving them thus far. As you journey through Oakhaven you will meet characters and learn things that help you reach each goal. The paths you choose will bring you to the final moments where one last decision will change you and the kingdom forever.
