2023 U.S. National Dodos Riding Dinos Championship
Summary:
Race in different tracks using projectiles vs. your foes to test your dexterity skills. Winner receives a free trip to Mexico for the World Championship!
Description:
Advance with blue or red cards and solve their wacky effects. Some will test your dexterity against your rivals by throwing bananas, flicking dodo eggs or making meteors fall. Red cards are extra powerful but if too many players pick them during the same round, their effects will be ignored. At the end of each round, the Dodo in the lead advances an extra space while the rest gets to draw a card. The fastest Dodo and Dino will be saved from extinction! Players will play in 3 preliminary rounds; top scorers will advance to elimination play against winners of store tournaments across the country. The U.S. National Champion will compete at the 2023 World Championship at Roll a Game Expo in Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico, December 16-17. Prize package includes roundtrip flight, three nights at a hotel near the Convention Center, breakfast and a badge for the event.
2023 U.S. National Finger Guns at High Noon Championship
Summary:
A fast-paced game of strategy, negotiation, and pure hilarity - battle royale style. Winner receives a $250 shopping spree at the IGS booth!
Description:
Craft your plan, convince the crowd to join in, then count down and draw your finger guns. Hand gestures show everyone's actions and targets. Eliminate players with pistols, dynamite, and power shots, or stand to the side and lasso up an ally. Players will play in 3 preliminary rounds; top scorers will advance to elimination play.
A beautifully crafted 2-player abstract strategy game, featuring wooden boards and natural stones. Winner receives a $250 shopping spree at the Smirk & Dagger booth!
Description:
Your turn is in two parts. First, a player may move one of their stones up to two spaces in any direction, including diagonally, in what is called a passive (or set up) move. Second, they take a more aggressive move, which must be the same direction and number of spaces as the first move. It is this second move that allows you to push stones across the board - or off the board's edge. Remove all four of your opponent's stones from just one of the four boards to win. Players will play in 3 preliminary rounds; top scorers will advance to elimination play.
Your village has been overrun by savage werewolves - get rid of them faster than the neighboring villages! Winner receives a $250 gift certificate at the Bezier booth.
Description:
Use your residents' special abilities and your powerful secret weapon: A silver amulet. The werewolves are represented by the number on each of the cards that make up your village. Call for a vote when you think you have the fewest werewolves, but be careful; everyone else gets one more turn to save their own village first... Players will play in 2 preliminary rounds; top scorers will advance to elimination play.
Brent Beck's trick-taking game is similar to Oh Hell!, Wizard and Spades, with players needing to state how many tricks they think they'll win each round. Winner receives a special prize package.
Description:
