Hive is an unusual abstract game, played without a board. Each turn, players add pieces to the playing area, or move a piece in play, aiming to surround the opponent's queen bee. With quality wooden components and very clean rules, Stephen recommends this highly.

2-8 players, age 8+, playing time 1 hour

The Gothic Game is an arbitrary, atmospheric, and very amusing game. The object of the game is very simple; to kill every other player in the castle. Various items lying around in the rooms will help you to do this... if they don't kill you first!

Price: £24 including UK postage. More information coming soon

Baron Munchausen is the ultimate story telling game. Players take the roles of nobles, gathered in a tavern, telling tall tales of their exploits. The game is played with a minimum of props; a few gold coins, some good vintage port, and a knighthood will do.

2-6 players, age 8+, playing time 10 minutes

In 5ive Straight, players (or teams) try to create a line of 5 pegs, horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. Pegs are placed by playing cards... the peg can be played in any hole greater than or equal to the number on the card, and most of the strategy revolves around using high cards to force low cards out of your opponents' hands. Simple but clever, especially as a partnership game.

Price: £18 including UK postage. More information coming soon
