The race is on! Ants have found an abandoned picnic blanket ripe with sweets, but there aren't enough for every colony . . .
Gingham is a tricky game of confection connection. In this game, players position their queens around the gingham picnic blanket and deploy their ants to connect sweets and claim the stockpiles they create.
The lead player determines which edge of the playing area all players must play on each round. Everyone then places their queen next to a row on this edge, then deploys an ant into the row where they place their queen. The catch is that you cannot deploy your ant beyond the stitch in the blanket, and the rows closer to the star at the end of the row offer fewer options. That said, whoever places their queen closest to the star becomes the leader of the next round and places their queen next to a row on any other edge of the playing area; players take turns in order of the queens in the previous row. Do you opt for a better turn order position for next round or more flexibility for ant placement this round?
By connecting matching sweet tokens with a line of your ants and by surrounding and claiming stockpiles, players score points. Sweet tokens are stacked atop one another after connecting, with sugar cubes being left behind; place next to a sugar cube to claim it as they can be spent on powerful abilities. Stretch your ants across the blanket, and grab the biggest piles of sweets to prove your pint-sized royalty!
Gingham is the second title in Bitewing Games' Travel Line. This line of games is focused on being supremely easy to play with anyone, anywhere.

Gazebo
Fill the botanical gardens with fragrant flowers, lush foliage, and soothing waters as you erect your gazebos among the tranquil features and atop prized patios.In Gazebo, players take turns placing dominos on the shared garden map to establish nooks - that is, two or more contiguous terrain spaces of the same type: flower, foliage, or water. When a player creates a nook, they place one of their gazebos on top of it, and by connecting their nook to a patio, they can claim the patio and place a gazebo on it.But not all is peaceful in this game of garden landscaping. Larger nooks can absorb smaller nooks, and patios can be stolen by cunning rivals. The first player to place all of their gazebos on the board wins!Gazebo is an evolution of Reiner Knizia's classic game Qin and introduces many innovations by: • Improving the method of drawing single-colored and double-colored dominoes for less luck and more tension • Increasing the variety of gameplay features across the all-new base game maps and expansion maps • Deepening the strategic possibilities with Zen spaces, vases, and pedestals • Ramping up the conflicts with more valuable contested spaces and more tactical flexibility • Debuting an exciting new partnership mode for four players • Condensing a now bigger experience into a smaller and more portable package • Broadening the appeal and approachability with a new garden theme beautifully illustrated by Alisha GirouxGazebo is the first official title to kick off Bitewing Games' Travel Line.Ages: 8+Players: 2-4Game Length: 30 minutes

Bombastic
Find three in a row without causing an explosion!Bombastic is a spicy, five-minute, travel-friendly game for two players. One player is Xs, and the other is Os - pretty standard so far. But what you don't know can hurt you. Nine chunky tiles are shuffled face down into a 3x3 grid - 4 of them Xs, 4 of them Os, and the last? A ticking, delicate bomb. Can you find your tiles without blowing up?On your turn, either: • Go for It - Show three tiles in a row. If they are yours, you win! If you show the bomb - BOOM! You lose! If you show any of your opponent's tiles, then you give them helpful information (whoops), but the tiles are placed back face down, and the game keeps going. • Use one of two available action cards to help you peek at and rearrange tiles, staying one step ahead of your rival.Only the cleverest player who uses the action cards wisely (and isn't afraid to take a chance here and there) will be able to win Bombastic!Bombastic is part of Bitewing Games' Travel Line. It comes packaged inside a clamshell case with a carabiner, making it easy to play with anyone, anywhere!Ages: 8+Players: 2Game Length: 5 minutes

Aspens: Deluxe Edition
Aspens is a cozy, yet challenging strategy game for two players. Harness the forces of wind and sun, and carefully balance rapid expansion with sustainable growth, to outwit your opponent and grow the largest, most stunning forest.In Aspens, players compete to grow the largest forest on a shared board - having to balance how much they invest in building their "engine" to increase the odds of generating trees on future turns, with the pressure of needing to expand to claim territory and ultimately be crowned the winner.Players start by seeding and growing a forest space adjacent to each water tile. This is where players determine their initial strategy and appetite for risk. Then play begins.On your turn, you roll the sun die, and both players generate trees for spaces they have grown tall enough to capture the sun. Then you roll the wind die, determining which directions you can grow outward in. The active player then plants their trees, balancing between growing existing spaces up with more trees, or expanding outward from their forests, following the wind. This is the core crux of tough decision making and strategy comes in - balancing future investment with rapid expansion.Play continues until all spaces are claimed, and the player with the most spaces is crowned the winner!The Deluxe Edition comes with custom cut wooden tree pieces, a stunning box sleeve, a metal first player coin, and bags with stunning illusrations on them!Contents:1 Double-Sided Tile Based Board (7 Pieces)240 Wooden Tree Pieces (Custom Cut for the Deluxe Edition)2 Cloth Bags (Beautifully Illustrated for the Deluxe Edition)1 Illustrated Box Sleeve (Deluxe Edition Only)1 Metal First Player Coin (Deluxe Edition Only)2 Wooden Engraved Dice3 Water TilesAges: 10+Players: 2 (4 with Deciduous Duos Expansion)Game Length: 30 minutes

Iliad
The Trojan War has begun, and both sides of the conflict pursue every advantage they can possibly gain. Two opposing heroes - Hector of the Trojans and Achilles of the Greeks - seek the favor of the gods to lend them support and tip the scales of fate. Only one side will emerge victorious, its hero becoming the legend of the Iliad.Iliad is a tile-placement strategy game for two-players by Reiner Knizia. On your turn, select one of two tiles from your hand and place it onto the board adjacent to an opponent's tile. Both players have symmetrical pools of tiles, with their strength ranging from 1-5, along with the Dolos tile that mimics your opponent's adjacent tiles. The key to victory lies behind the relentless tension of where and when to commit your tiles. When placing a tile, you may also activate the tile's ability, which can serve to turn the tide of war.When a row or column is filled, the player with the highest total strength in that line earns the right to select one of the two success tokens at the ends of that row or column; the other token goes to their opponent. Success tokens can earn you the favor of the Gods, and they can earn (or cost you) points. At the end of the game, the winner is the player who has earned the favor of all five Gods. If both players - or neither of them - meet this qualification, then the player who has earned the most points wins. Thus, players will face tough tactical trade-offs as they must decide whether to compete for exclusive favor of the Gods or for the most points - then influence the outcome of the game toward their intended advantage.Iliad is the first game in the Mythos Collection, a line of two-player titles by Bitewing Games featuring strategy and mythology.Contents:1 Cloth Board18 Blue Hector Tiles18 Red Achilles Tiles29 Success Tokens1 Success Tokens BagAges: 10+Players: 2Game Length: 30 minutes

Ichor
The dark monsters of Greek mythology have gathered for one final assault on Mount Olympus. The Greek gods are prepared to defend their sacred ground. Who will prevail in this decisive battle of blood and ichor?Ichor is an asymmetric strategy game for two players by Reiner Knizia. In this mythological battle of wits, one player controls the Greek gods while the other controls the Greek monsters. On your turn, you move one of your figures in a straight line as far as you wish, leaving behind a trail of your tokens on each space you pass over. You can never move onto or over a space containing another figure, but you can replace opposing tokens with your own. The first player to get all of their tokens on the board wins.Each figure possesses a unique ability that can be used only once per game. Thus, the winner will be the one who best leverages their abilities, sets themself up for big plays, and blocks their opponent from doing the same.Reiner Knizia has developed and evolved Ichor from previous versions of this design by: • Polishing the existing character abilities while adding new ones • Introducing an advanced gameplay expansion that features powerful gate tiles and even more gods and monsters (called the Reinforcements & Gates expansion) • Focusing the competition on a dual-play experience that grows in tension • Providing nearly 50 million possible set-ups thanks to 2 game boards, 24 characters, and 8 gate tilesIchor is the second game in the Mythos Collection, a line of two-player titles featuring strategy and mythology.Contents:1 Double-sided Cloth Board8 God Figures8 Monster Figures16 Power Cards38 Player Tokens4 Player Aid CardsAges: 10+Players: 2Game Length: 40 minutes
