1. Pixie Games Tekhenu - The Obelisque of the Sun
4000 years ago, on the eastern bank of the Nile, the foundations of the Temple of Amon-Ra were laid. Over the next two thousand years, the temple was gradually enlarged and became better known as Ipet-Isut ("the largest of the places"), the largest religious building in the world. Today, the site is known as Karnak, located in Luxor in modern Egypt.
The game board of Tekhenu: Obelisk of the Sun is divided into six sections, each associated with an Egyptian god: Horus, Ra, Hathor, Bastet, Thoth, and Osiris. In the center is an impressive obelisk (Tekhenu) that casts its shadow on different parts of the board. Therefore, the area around the obelisk is divided into sunny, shady, and dark sections, depending on how the obelisk casts its shadow at a particular time. As the game progresses, the rotation of the sun changes the sunny, shady, or dark sections.
At each stage, you earn victory points by having the most workshops or quarries of each type, for buildings built near the Amon-Ra Temple complex, the number of statues you have built, depending on the happiness of your people, or having reached maximum production. You must also keep resources to support your population; otherwise, you will suffer negative consequences. In addition, after the second and final phase, you can earn bonus victory points through various decrees you collected during the game.

4. Pixie Games Tiny Epic Mechs
Tiny Epic Mechs is a new sport set in the year 3030, where technology provides humanity with a unique form of entertainment. Every five years, hundreds of millions of viewers eagerly anticipate the M.E.C.C.H.s: Mechanized Entertainment Combat Heroes. In Tiny Epic Mechs, players must acquire their Mecha license.
This action programming game pits players against each other as highly skilled Mecha pilots. They compete over six rounds using only their bare hands. In each round, players select four actions from a pool of eight available options. The programmed actions are executed in sequence at the table until all players have completed their four actions. When players collide, combat begins.
During combat, players shoot at each other until one player runs out of ammunition and must retreat, or until one player is defeated and must be reset. The battles are fast-paced, and each weapon can only be used once per fight, so having more weapons prolongs the battle. Weapons are categorized into three types, each with a system of weaknesses and resistances. By effectively managing their weapons, players can counter their opponents and launch stronger attacks. Dealing significant damage to an opponent will impress the audience and earn valuable points.
Additionally, players earn victory points every two rounds based on regional control and who controls the Mech. At the end of the game, extra points are awarded for each weapon owned.
5. Pixie Games Windmill Valley
Discover the art of growing tulips with Windmill Valley. At the end of the 19th century, the Netherlands was home to more than 9,000 windmills, some ingeniously designed to drain low-lying areas known as polders. These landscapes are adorned with fields of colorful tulips, once at the heart of the first financial bubble, and now essential to Dutch décor, notably on the famous Bloemen Road, also known as the "Flower Route."
In Windmill Valley, a captivating board game inspired by the Bloemen Road, up to four players take on the role of tulip growers and entrepreneurs.

8. Pixie Games Call Me Cthulhu
The worshippers of a monstrous entity hold unspeakable ceremonies to invoke their idol and enslave humanity. To foil their plan, Professor Armitage enlists the help of an adventurer to infiltrate the cultists and steal their cursed books.
Call Me Cthulhu is a hidden role team game based on the mechanics of the famous Nosferatu. This time, the good guys become the bad guys, and vice versa!
Call Me Cthulhu brings the same sensations as Nosferatu, but reveals an additional strategic dimension. The games often lead the cultists to make a fundamental choice, much more marked than in Nosferatu: try to eliminate the infiltrator, at the risk of making a mistake, or count on the possibility of bringing his mental health to zero by invoking the most powerful creatures?
Those who are used to Nosferatu will also appreciate, with Call Me Cthulhu, the possibility to summon new creatures at each game. Another fundamental difference, which only the game experience reveals: as much as in Nosferatu, vampire hunters never have an interest in lying, as they could only deceive their allies. In Call Me Cthulhu, the system of Portals and Signs of the Ancients can lead a cultist to hide information, or even lie, to prevent the infiltrator from thwarting their plans.
