- #1 highest-rated game on The Game Crafter!
- A TGC staff pick!
Each card has a gold value, and your goal is to earn 100 gold pieces across multiple rounds by building villages. Do this by collecting three unit cards of the same color and laying them down. If an enemy puts down a card you'd like to have, it's time for battle! Send out your village's finest hero or hire one in secret by playing it face-down from your hand, and your opponent will do the same. Play the stronger card, and you'll be able to take a prisoner from your enemy's village and make it part of your own.
However, it's not enough to simply send your most powerful units to attack neighboring kingdoms. Each unit has its own winning strategies: knights excel at defense, the wizard's power falters only when facing enemies of the same color, the dragon's strength increases with each enemy he defeats, and heroes become much stronger when you're in last place. These are only a few of the 15 different unit types you'll command. With the right combination of luck and skill, you'll always come out on top.
War is one way to expand your empire, but it is certainly not the only way. Perhaps you'd like to avoid conflict altogether. Take on the role of a benevolent king who gives freely to other players, and you'll win bonus gold for being the first to empty their hand and end the round. However you choose to play, there are strategic choices to be made. How will you rule?
All of the dungeons have been crawled. There are no more dragon hoards or ancient tombs to plunder. With their main source of income (and entertainment) gone, what are the adventurers and townspeople of a high fantasy world to do? Turn dungeon crawling into a sport, of course!
Now, dungeon crawls are simulated events, attended by thousands of screaming fans. Some cheer for the mighty Heroes. Others long to see the Monsters win. Engaging in combat will make you stronger, but whichever team scores the most points by throwing the crystalline Dungeonball into the other team's goal portal will be declared the master of the dungeon.

Gaialite
Video Game
When Cole, a mysterious boy with green horns, falls from space one night, young local Firista decides to take him in. Little does she know that he has greatness in his future... as well as a sinister secret in his past.
Gaialite is a video game for Windows made with RPG Maker VX. Take on the role of Cole, Firista, and others as they travel from world to world, fighting strange monsters in traditional JRPG battles, solving oh-so-tricky puzzles, and generally putting a stop to the plans of the evil Society of Certain Doom.
(Note: This game was never finished, even after the hundreds of hours of work I put into it. At this point, it is not likely that it will ever be finished. Even so, the material that does exist is fleshed out and ready to play. I would rather make good use of what I've done so far than throw it all away because I can't find the time to complete it. I hope you enjoy it for what it is!)

Villages: Distant Lands
Card Game Expansion
Card Game Expansion
You've conquered the known world. Now it's time to explore! Send 9 all-new units into the great unknown in order to claim even more land for your kingdom. Use the sneaky Scout to take a peek at your opponent's cards, protect your Kings and Princesses with the handsome Prince, and stage a revolution with the unassuming Peasant.
This expansion also introduces the Distant Lands locations deck. As you begin each round, draw one of these cards to discover a new place for you and your rivals to fight over. Each new land has its own special properties that change the rules of the game. For example, Rogue's Retreat lets hired units escape to the discard pile, while the Peasants at Revolt Volcano begin their uprising before you even start to play.

Prepare for the invasion of the evil dark cards! New units like Zombies, Skeletons, and Vampires are on the prowl, hunting for unsuspecting victims. Pirates, Ninjas, and Psychics are here to help, but will it be enough? Or will you rely on divine Light cards like the powerful Angel to thwart the forces of darkness?
Villages: Holiday Pack
Card Game Expansion
Card Game Expansion
Once upon a time, the world was at war. The ruthless battles between greedy kings and their armies grew more destructive by the day as they vied for control of newly discovered lands.
When one king went looking for reinforcements, he found a group of allies more powerful than any army he had encountered before. They were the mythological beings that were once thought to only exist in fairy tales. In the name of preserving the holidays and seasons they had come to represent, such legends as Santa Claus, Uncle Sam, and Mother Nature joined the fight, lending their aid to any who called upon them.
Villages: Holiday Pack includes 12 unique and powerful cards, one for each month of the year. Many of these cards were included as bonus cards in the base game, but now they're all here in one place.
