Upon the field of battle, crush your opponent with various strikes, stabs, slashes, spells, and other mayhem at your disposal. Be careful, though, as they have numerous ways to block, dodge, parry, fizzle, and disrupt your assault. Only one can be the victor, and the battle will be bloody!

MSRP: $34.99
Releases October 20, 2023

Sunrise Lane setupThe rules are simple: Choose a space that is adjacent to any preexisting structure and play a card of the same color to build a house and score points. Play more cards to build additional floors: the taller the house, the more points you get! With enough cards in your hand, you can even build more than 1 house during your turn. If that highly valuable plot of land you’ve been eyeing is just out of your reach, don’t fret! You can always discard any card to build a park and keep your building spree going.

You get a new card at the end of each turn, but beware: Renovations are not allowed after construction is complete, so make sure to be prepared before you start! Just skip a turn from time to time to draw more cards, if you need to. Don’t forget the requirements of the town plan to accumulate bonus points! Construct the tallest houses in the blue districts, and make the majority of houses in the red districts! Additional points are also awarded to the largest groups of adjacent houses.

Build a dream neighborhood…in Sunrise Lane!

Hegemony: Lead Your Class to Victory

The Nation is in disarray, and a war is waging between the classes. The working class faces a dismantled welfare system, the capitalists are losing their hard-earned profits, the middle class is gradually fading, and the state is sinking into a deep deficit. Amidst all this chaos, the only person who can provide guidance is…you. Will you take the side of the working class and fight for social reforms? Or will you stand with the corporations and the free market? Will you help the government try to keep it all together, or will you try to enforce your agenda no matter the cost to the country?

Hegemony is an asymmetric, politico-economic, card-driven board game that puts you in the role of one of the socio-economic groups in a fictional state: The Working Class, the Middle Class, the Capitalist Class, and the State itself.

Hegemony: Lead Your Class to Victory
Publisher: Hegemonic Project Limited
Item Code: HPGHEG01
MSRP: $94.99
Releases October 20, 2023

The Working class controls the workers. The Capitalist class controls the companies. The Middle class combines elements from both the Working class and the Capitalist. It has workers who can work in the Capitalist’s companies but it can also build companies of its own, yet smaller. Finally, the State is trying to keep everyone happy, providing benefits and subsidies when needed but trying also to maintain a steady income through taxes to avoid going into debt.

While players have their own separate goals, they are all limited by a series of policies that affect most of their actions, like Taxation, Labor Market, Foreign Trade, etc. Voting on those policies and using their influence to change them is also very important. Through careful planning, strategic actions and political maneuvering, you will do your best to increase the power of your class and carry out your agenda. Will you be the one to lead your class to victory?

Hegemony is heavily based on actual academic principles such as Social-Democracy, Neoliberalism, Nationalism, and Globalism, and it allows players to see their real-world applications through engaging gameplay. There are many ways to achieve hegemony—which one will you take?
