Tak-tak from Twizmo Games
Checkers and chess have been classic, go-to games for hundreds of years, but where is the modern twist? tak•tak is today’s new two-player strategy board game! It has simple rules like checkers and the layered strategies of chess for a gameplay dynamic that is both familiar and fresh. Players take turns moving their pieces into the gray “war zone” with the goal of reaching their opponent’s safe zone on the other side of the board. On any turn, players may stack their own pieces or, attack and steal their opponent’s pieces, if they are the same number or color. Advance the highest numeric value of chips into your opponents safe zone and win tak•tak. Learning to play is quick and easy but it takes a real strategist to win this MENSA Recommended game! http://twizmogames.com/?page_id=4904
Emoji Wars from Twizmo Games
Emoji are not new to this Earth. They have lived among us in an unseen dimension for thousands of years engaged in a great battle to find their one, true ruler. Now you can join the fight. Choose an Emoji commander, surround him with allies and go to battle with magic and weapons to establish dominance over the Emoji Empire. Each character in the deck has magic or strength ability and the need for Emoji Energy to launch an attack. When a weapon or spell has been used against an opponent it drains them of their life points. Keep up the fight until you have eliminated the other armies and rule the Emoji Empire – until the next battle! http://twizmogames.com/?page_id=5532

Sleeper Hero from PurplePancakes
It starts with a storybook. A story about a boy, named Luke, that struggles with staying in his bed at night. That is until he is introduced to a doll. Not any doll, though. A super special doll — a SleeperHero. SleeperHero is a buddy that is there for him at night when he gets scared. Better yet, this doll has a special light on its chest that shines bright in the dark, wards off his imaginary bad guys AND teaches him when it is an okay time to get out of bed in the morning. The light changes from RED to GREEN. RED means "stay in bed". GREEN means "rise and shine". With the help of his SleeperHero, Luke is able to stay in bed at night. And when he learns to sleep better, everyone in the house sleeps better. http://www.sleeperhero.com
