Gryphon Chess is a new take on the board game classic. Novel mechanics and tactics await for you to collect and explore! Three factions vie for power: the industrious and methodical Empire, the elusive creatures of the Woodland, and the tough and stubborn Saurians. Each faction has unique pieces, play styles, and strategies to learn. [Special Features] COLLECT AND UPGRADE PIECES Collect and upgrade unique pieces as you play and progress. (Yes, even gryphons - or griffons - or griffins... any way you spell it, make sure you know where they're at!) As you upgrade pieces, they'll gain additional movement patterns and abilities. CUSTOM SETS Create custom faction-specific sets. Mix and match pieces from the standard set and each faction to suit your strategy, but beware! Your opponent will have their own custom set and pieces. [Strategic Gameplay] SHARPER MATCHES With three additional win conditions, Gryphon Chess matches are typically quicker and more pointed. With custom sets, each match becomes a real-time puzzle.

Oustwit is a fast, friendly battle of wits on a 6×6 board. The rules take seconds to learn: drop one of your eight pieces onto the grid and it shoves the neighboring pieces outward. Line up three in a row — or be the first to place all eight — and the round is yours. Simple to pick up, surprisingly deep to master. Every placement matters. A single piece can push a rival out of position, open a winning line, or wall off their best move. The board is small enough to read at a glance and tight enough that one clever push can flip the whole game around.
