Betrayal
New spooky nights await you and your friends! The creak of footsteps on the stairs, the smell of something foul and dead, the feel of something crawling down your back - this and more can be found in the exciting refresh of the Avalon Hill favorite Betrayal at House on the Hill. This fun and suspenseful game is a new experience almost every time you play - you and your friends explore 'that creepy old place on the hill' until enough mystic misadventures happen that one of the players turns on all of the others! Hours of fun for all your friends and family.
Catan
Players are recent immigrants to the newly populated island of Catan. Expand your colony through the building of settlements, roads, and villages by harvesting commodities from the land around you. Trade sheep, lumber, bricks and grain for a settlement, bricks and wood for a road, or try to complete other combinations for more advanced buildings, services and specials. Trade with other players, or at local seaports to get resources you might lack. The first player to achieve 10 points from a combination of roads, settlements, and special cards wins.
The Oilman Game
The Oilman Game captures the true to life excitement, successes and failures of the international oil magnate.
The object of the game is to become the most successful oil company in the world. Players/teams first choose a name for their new oil company, then bid on leases around the world. Once a lease is secured, the drilling begins. Suspense builds as players search for the gushers in hopes of striking it rich.
Mysterium
A horrible crime was committed on the grounds of Warwick Manor thirty years ago. Now, the mansion is haunted by the ghost of the murdered servant, and it's up to a group of psychic investigators to get to the bottom of the mystery. Mysterium is a cooperative game of deduction and teamwork for two to seven players. Over the course of the game, one player takes on the role of the ghost and over the course of a few scant hours, tries to lead the psychics to the correct culprit. Every member of the team will receive numerous visions, but what is the ghost trying to tell you exactly? Can the psychics determine the weapon, location and killer, or will a violent criminal pull off the perfect murder?
Pandemic
As skilled members of a disease-fighting team, you must keep four deadly diseases at bay while discovering their cures. You and your teammates will travel across the globe, treating infections while finding resources for cures. You must work as a team to succeed. Pandemic is a cooperative game, all players win or lose together. The clock is ticking as outbreaks and epidemics fuel the spreading plagues. Can you find all four cures in time? The fate of humanity is in your hands!

Ticket to Ride is a cross-country train adventure in which players collect and play matching train cards to claim railway routes connecting cities throughout North America.
