Morels (led by Sean) 2012 2-player (Sean proves himself to be a Fungi)  drafting, hand management and set collection with mushrooms. Games Magazine awarded it with best new card game in 2014.

The Game: Face 2 Face (led by K-ban) 2017 2-player competitive version of The Game. Same objective (each player has one ascending and one descending pile of cards). Play all your cards to win or if your opponent can’t make two legal plays on a turn. The twist here is that if you play one card that breaks the rules on one of your opponent’s piles you can refresh your entire hand (instead of just 2 cards) . Surprisingly tense.
