Quick descriptions -- click on the game's title for more info
- [I Want Candy!] -
All the fun of a pinata, with none of the screaming, accidental concussions, or
clean-up. For two to six hyperactive greed-crazed kids (or kids at heart).
- [Ice Age] -
It's mastodon herding season, and you and the other hunters from your tribe have managed to spook a few of
them into a box canyon. Now all you have to do is kill a few for the coming winter.
- [Ice Market] -
Players in Ice Market do not take turns. Once the 5-minute timer starts, swap and
trade for all you're worth until the timer stops. You may swap anything that you
possess: cards, pieces, information, etc. Your goal is to end the game with the
pieces worth the most points.
- [Icehouse] -
The original game to play with your elongated pyramids -- This bizarre little game
completely does away with the concepts of turn sequence and structure, as it doesn't
use turns, or rounds, or anything else to break up the action.
- [Icehouse Pieces] -
Icehouse pieces are more of a game system than a game, since over a hundred games
can be played with Icehouse pieces. Some of the more popular games include
Gnostica, Zendo, Volcano, IceTowers, and the original game Icehouse.
- [IceSickle] -
The Martian Peg Game -- similar to the solitaire games in which you capture pegs
by jumping over them with other pegs.
- [IceTowers] -
A high-speed game of pyramid stacking, played without turns on any flat surface
- [IceTraders] -
You are the commander of a fleet of starships -- will you play cooperatively, allying
yourself with the Good side to fight Evil, or will you be Evil, intent only on the
destruction of your fellow players?
- [Il Ribaltone] -
A game on Italian politics. It focuses players' attention to the intrigues
and machinations that made the Italian governments so weak during the First
Republic.
- [Impasse] -
An abstract strategy game designed for a Checkers set. While borrowing the equipment
of Checkers, and being influenced by the game of Checkers, Impasse is really not a
Checkers variant. There is no jumping or capturing.

struggles, both internally and with surrounding foes.
