A visit to the dungeon can be quite the tormenting affair on the hero side of life, so why not switch sides and become a certified dungeon architect instead? In Doodle Dungeon, each player works on their own dungeon blueprint. Drafted cards determine which elements — monsters, traps, and treasures — they have to add immediately. After fourteen cards have been drafted, the blueprint is passed to the next player, who then draws the route an anthropomorphic test hero will take because these days, even in the dungeon business, nothing works without quality inspection. The players receive their own blueprints back and try to keep the dummy hero from killing their monsters, stealing their treasures, and — obviously — making it out alive. They can use the drafted cards to fight off the hero or to support the heroes in their opponent's dungeons. In the end, only the creator of the most devious dungeon will triumph. Doodle Dungeon combines the rewarding elements of creating, then defending one's own dungeon, and mixes it with engaging draft-and-draw gameplay. —description from the publisher

The challenge of Slide is to rid yourself of cards to leave as few points as possible. To set up, deal sixteen cards to each player, who arranges them in a face-down 4x4 grid. Cards range from 1 to 10, with ten copies of each number. To start, each player reveals a card of their choice from the grid. Starting with whoever revealed the lowest number, each player claims a revealed card and slides it into their grid to close the gap they created when they removed a card. The starting player keeps rotating clockwise as players do this fifteen more times, eventually having a fully face-up 4x4 grid. Each number in a grid that's adjacent to the same number is removed, and the sum of the remaining cards is your score. Whoever has the lowest score wins. Alternatively, play multiple rounds until a player reaches 100 points, then once again whoever has the lowest score wins.

In Sanibel, players walk up and down the beaches of this Florida island city, collecting a wide variety of seashells and carefully adding them to their bags — with your "bag" being a personal player board. As you collect shells, you "drop" them in the bag, letting them fall to the bottom Tetris-style. Focus on the types of shells and where they land, since they score in a variety of ways. Be sure to collect shark's teeth, too, as they're small and can fit in tiny spaces. Movement on the beach is represented by player tokens that start in a line, with a multitude of tiles splayed into zones on the beach. Whoever is at the back of the line takes the next turn, advancing as far as they wish, then collecting tiles. At the halfway point, players loop around and head back to where they started. At the end of the game, players earn points based on which seashells they picked up and how carefully they arranged them in their bag.
