Harry Potter - Defenders of Hogwarts
Harry Potter Defenders of Hogwarts by Minalima is a board game in which players can choose to defend the castle from the evil forces of Voldemort, or choose to be on the dark side and attack the castle.
The game is designed for 2 to 5 players and takes around 90 minutes to play. The age recommendation is 13 years and older.
This magically colorful board game contains 200 components ranging with 100 illustrated cards. A fun piece of trivia is on each of the cards.
The game allows for players play in the house of their choice or join the dark side. Players can team up or go it alone in the battle for Hogwarts and take all the glory for themselves.
Players will navigate the board of Hogwarts building up spells and encountering events during the course of the game while trying to defend it from the death eaters before Lord Voldemort himself arrives.

Pyrates The Golden Age
In this board game, become a pyrate captain and control the seas! Face encounters, recruit crew members and take over merchant ships.
The game is 1 - 4 players and takes around 2 to 3 hours to play. With the game comes some fantastic art and maps that put any gamer into a swashbuckling mood.
In the box is 1 map board that is double sided, 4 pirate ship boards, 1 captain logbook, A reference sheet and the rulebook. 4 cannonball dice, 1 regular six sided die, specialty crew cards, 135 game cards and character pieces.
I am always looking for a good pirate game and Pyrates The Golden Age scratches that itch!
Children of Time: The Roleplaying Game
Create millennia-spanning sci-fi epics in this groundbreaking roleplaying game based on the award winning Children of Time novels.
Children of Time: The Roleplaying Game is a tabletop roleplaying game based on Adrian Tchaikovsky's award winning science fiction novels, where societies embark on epic, era-spanning journeys of growth, endurance, and self-discovery.
The Children of Time RPG comes as a three book slipcase set. Each book focuses on a different facet of your play: the ark ship hurtling towards a new dawn, the planet that awaits the humans aboard, and the setup and rules that govern your storytelling as you go. Each book is made with distinct layout styles and different materials, so they truly feel like relics from differing cultures.
For those looking for a really deep science fiction world builder TTRPG this one is for you. I am super excited to get my hands on this!
