Used Games For Sale

A regularly updated list of games I have available for sale. Click on any picture to get a larger view. See below for all the details. Prices are in Canadian Dollars.


AmoebaWars.jpg (190962 bytes) Amoeba Wars  $14

Contents are complete and in excellent condition. The Special Power cards are still unpunched. Box is in good condition but has a moderate amount of wear on corners.

BigShot.jpg (191219 bytes) Big Shot  $15

Big Shot is a majorities/auction game. Each turn four cubes (in the player colours) will be auctioned with the winner places them in any district he/she chooses. Once seven cubes are in a district, it scores but since ties eliminates each other, having the most cubes does not guarantee victory. (e.g. If a district has 3 yellow, 3 black and 1 red cube, the red cube wins!) The auctioning can get downright nasty and you'll need to go deep into debt in order to win.

Complete and in excellent condition.

Boat Wars  $5

Steve Jackson Games - Pocket Box edition. Clip-less enclosure. Uncut counters.

CantStop.jpg (127071 bytes) Can't Stop  $18

Classic Sid Sackson game of dice-rolling. How far can you push your luck? 

Complete and in excellent condition. Box is in good condition. Includes extra pieces to allow for a fifth player. 

CantStopExpansion.jpg (115807 bytes) Can't Stop  (5 Player Expansion)  $3

These pieces are identical to the original Parker Brothers' pieces except for colour and allow you to play Can't Stop with up to five players. Your choice of burgundy or gray.

 

Cathedral05-web.jpg (152748 bytes) Cathedral  $15

An excellent 2-player game where you try to surround your opponent's pieces with your own. This is the Milton Bradley version which I prefer to the more expensive wood or polystone versions due to the detail of its plastic pieces. 

Complete and in very good condition. 

Civilisation - Western Extension Map.jpg (249760 bytes) Civilization: Western Extension Map  $125

Much sought after expansion to Avalon Hill's Civilization. Includes the map itself and the rule-sheet but does not include the original envelope. 

In very good condition.

ClueMasterDetective.jpg (124324 bytes) Clue Master Detective  $25

Clue Master Detective is very similar to the original but adds two more weapons, three more rooms and four more suspects. This makes for a longer, more challenging game. Don't play with the rules that come with the game though. In regular Clue, only a single player (in clockwise order) will refute a suggestion (by showing a card). In Clue Master Detective, all players are required to do so. So, if I suggest that Ms. Scarlet did it in the Conservatory with the Poison then I will positively be able to eliminate or confirm all three elements since they will either be in my hand, be shown to me by another player or be part of the solution. Ugh! It's far better to play with the original method and the game works very well when played this way. Components are complete and in excellent condition. The box is in fair condition.

ClueCardGame.jpg (136333 bytes) Clue: The Card Game  $6

Card game version of the classic game. 

Complete and in excellent condition.

Code7-web.JPG (161110 bytes) Code 7  $40

Also known as Code 777. The object of the game is to deduce a three-digit code that is hidden from you but visible to all the other players (each player has their own code). On a turn, you'll draw a card and answer it aloud. e.g. "Do you see more green numbers or more yellow numbers?". Once you figure out your own code, you draw another three numbers and continue. Whoever solves the most codes wins the game.

Complete and in very good condition. The box has minor wear on the corners and "Crystal" was written on the front although it is now barely visible.

Dilbert.jpg (159458 bytes) Dilbert: Corporate Shuffle  $12

This Dilbert card game is a variant of The Great Dalmuti, which is itself a version of the popular game know as President or A**hole.

Complete and in excellent condition. The box has very minor wear. 

Dominoes.jpg (127215 bytes) Dominoes  $10

A nice set of double-twelve dominoes. I particularly like this set as the pips are colour-coded. 

Complete and in excellent condition (includes carrying case). 

Duell02.jpg (105082 bytes) Duell  $10

A very clever and evocative two-player game from Reiner Knizia. Even though the game involves nothing more than playing cards numbered 1-5, it really captures the spirit of a fencing duel. This version includes special cards that alter the gameplay but since I prefer it in its purer form, I don't use them.

Complete and in excellent condition.

DungeonTwister-web.jpg (198327 bytes) Dungeon Twister  $18

Complete and in excellent condition.

EnchantedForest.jpg (189667 bytes) Enchanted Forest  $10

Fun little memory game from Ravensburger. Players move around the forest looking at the symbol printed beneath each of the thirteen plastic trees (very cool!). At any point they may travel to the castle and look at the top-most card -- if that player can reveal the tree with the matching symbol, they collect that card. The first player to collect three cards wins the game. 

Complete and in good condition although the rules are photocopies. The box top has one repaired corner.

ForeignExchange.jpg (140622 bytes) Foreign Exchange  $8

Avalon Hill. Good condition.

GraveRobbers-web.jpg (115058 bytes) Grave Robbers From Outer Space  $4

"A sci-fi / horror B-movie card game.  Bad acting, poor special effects, and a plot with a thousand holes. These ingredients make up the B-movies you love to hate and hate to love. Now you and your friends can create your own B-movies with Grave Robbers from Outer Space, the soda and popcorn card game that pays homage to the great turkeys you stay up late to watch." For 2-6 players.

Contents are complete and in excellent condition, one deck of cards is still in its original shrinkwrap. The flimsy tuck-box is in fair condition with much wear on the corners. 

HeroesIncorporated.jpg (98467 bytes) Heroes, Incorporated  $20

Missing 1 of 12 generic "+1 combat" tokens, otherwise complete and in excellent condition.

HeroQuest - Painted 01.jpg (117740 bytes) HeroQuest - Painted Furniture  $60

This is a complete, painted set of all the furniture pieces from HeroQuest. For detailed pictures of the painted items next to the unpainted originals, click below:

HighSociety-web.jpg (139190 bytes) High Society  $12

High Society is one of my favourite auction games. The object of the game is to acquire the greatest collection of luxuries but (and it's a big but) the player with the least amount of money automatically loses! I don't like it so much with five players, four is alright but it absolutely shines with three.

Complete and in very good condition.

IlluminatNewWorldOrder-web.jpg (120063 bytes) Illuminati: New World Order  $40

Illuminati: New World Order is the collectible card game version of Steve Jackson's classic game of secret society's and covert world domination. This copy for sale is the "One With Everything" factory set that includes every card in the first release of the game. (Over 430 cards!) It does not include the 20 blank cards that came with this set and one card ("First thing we do...") has bent corners. Otherwise it is complete and in very good condition.

Also included are 101 cards from the Assassins expansion. (E-mail me if you'd like a list of these.)

InfernalContraption-web.jpg (122542 bytes) Infernal Contraption  $10

"Fun-fueled card game of mechanical mayhem!" Infernal Contraption is for 2-4 players who attempt to construct a maniacal machine without blowing themselves up. 

Complete and in excellent condition.

Intern.jpg (156577 bytes) Intern  $5

Avalon Hill game of learning physicians. 

Complete and in excellent condition.

Knock! Knock!  $5

Complete and in excellent condition, cards are shrink-wrapped.

LabyrinthCardGame2.jpg (118187 bytes) Labyrinth The Card Game  $4

Card game version of The Amazing Labyrinth. Complete and in excellent condition.

MageKnight.jpg (73695 bytes) Mage Knight Dungeons  $5

I have a single starter set for sale: Arman Gessep, Zenephret, Satyr, Potbellied Gremlin, Lizard Man, Gnoll Hunter, Gargoyle, Minotaur Warrior, Treasure Chest 120, Treasure Chest 132. Not shown but included are the box, map, dice and rules.

MasterLabyrinth3.jpg (44440 bytes) Master Labyrinth  $16

Very cool game set in an ever-shifting maze. The board is a 7x7 grid of tiles each with a portion of a corridor on it. Every turn you push the one extra tile onto either a row or column which can radically alter the pathways on it. 

Complete and in very good condition.

New England  $30

Alan Moon & Aaron Weissblum's game of early pioneers. Complete and in excellent condition. My full review can be read here.

NewWorld.jpg (145461 bytes) New World  $30

An old-school game from Avalon Hill about exploiting and colonizing the Americas. Complete and in excellent condition -- all parts are unpunched. The box is in good condition overall but does have wear, particularly on the top left corner.

Perudo2.jpg (135447 bytes) Perudo  $10

This is the traditional game that (in a round-a-bout way) was the inspiration for Liar's Dice. 

Complete and in excellent condition.

Phoenix  $15

Phoenix is a two-player abstract game in which you are trying to align your ten pawns to match the colour sequence of six master blocks. This is accomplished by playing cards which allow you to swap and switch the order of your pawns. You have to be careful though as your opponent may switch pawns with you or even the order of the master blocks themselves!

Complete and in like-new condition.

PigTrotters.jpg (70993 bytes) Pig Trotters  $12

This is a great little game that has been published in various forms under names such as Galloping Pigs, All the Way Home or this version, Pig Trotters. Play is very simple: You're dealt a hand of cards, each depicting one of the five piglets in the race. On your turn you play one card and move that piglet to the next unoccupied space (hopping over any piglets directly in front of him). If this moves that piglet into first place, you collect a victory point. If that's all there was to the game, it would be practically worthless, but there's a clever twist -- you only get to keep victory points earned in a round if the last card you play in that round moves a piglet to the front of the line. Play one round for each player in the game. It's still very luck dependant but planning for the future is required. A fun little filler that works great with both young kids and adults.

This version has a mounted board and chits for the victory points. Complete and in excellent condition.

Polarity04.jpg (48779 bytes)

Polarity02.jpg (199186 bytes)
Polarity  $15

Polarity is a very unique boardgame in which the players place magnetic pieces so that they are balanced on the magnetic fields of other pieces. A very light touch is required especially once the playing surface starts to fill up -- all the disks will start to wiggle and shake as you try to add another piece!

Complete with 52 disks (plus the red center disk).

PoliceAcademy.jpg (73829 bytes) Police Academy: Ausbruch In Manhattan  $5

Don't know much about this game other than what's on the box: 2-6 players, age 6+, 30-60 minutes. Its by ASS and obviously based on the movies. 

Complete and in very good condition. (English rules NOT included.)

QueensNecklace.jpg (66481 bytes) Queen's Necklace  $12

Complete and in excellent condition.

RaidOnIran.jpg (28452 bytes) Raid on Iran  $12

Steve Jackson Games - Pocket Box edition. Clip-less enclosure. Uncut counters.

Rummy21.jpg (125259 bytes) Rummy 21  $5

Interesting Rummy variant using cards and tiles. 

Complete and in excellent condition.

Runebound.jpg (164226 bytes) Runebound (First Edition)  $15

Missing the Varikas card but includes a replacement as well as a copy of the second-edition card. Otherwise complete and in excellent condition. The box has minor wear. Includes the Shadows of Margath expansion.

ScotlandYard3.jpg (174888 bytes) Scotland Yard  $20

Despite the fact that the box says it's for 3-6 players, I find Scotland Yard best as a 2-player game. One player controls all the detectives and the difficulty can be adjusted by using 3, 4 or 5 detectives. This Ravensburger version is superior to the Milton Bradley edition since the pawns do not obscure the spaces they are on and the board does not feature a "valley" fold. The only thing I like about the MB version is that it included 5 cardboard detective badges to indicate which detective is which. Since these are especially useful when playing the game 2-player, I will throw in a set of these badges. 

Complete and in excellent condition.

Shogun5.jpg (68900 bytes) Shogun  $12

Abstract game from Ravensburger. Players have 8 pieces (one of which is their king) and each can move the number of spaces indicated (from 1 to 4). The interesting bit is that magnets beneath the board cause the number on each piece to change with each move. So, you're never quite sure of the future mobility of a piece until after you've moved it. 

Complete and in excellent condition.

SquadSeven.jpg (144511 bytes) Squad Seven  $18

Fun, activity-type game in which players will occasionally have to run around the table and shoot an actual dart gun! Includes a CD that acts as a timer (each game lasts exactly 17 minutes) as well as indicating whether it's "night" or "day" (the rules change for each). 

Includes only 4 of the 6 darts (one of which has slight damage but this does not affect its usability). The box has one repaired corner. Otherwise complete and in very good condition.

TimeWar.jpg (126672 bytes) Time War  $10

Complete and in excellent condition. The box top has a surface tear and light staining.

TransAmerica  $15

A very simple train game that distills route-building down to its very core. Each turn players place 1 or 2 pieces of communal track on the board. The first player to connect all five of his/her cities wins the round (everyone else takes penalty points according to how far from completion they were). Play several rounds until one player is out of points and the player with the highest score wins. There's plenty of luck, but the better players tend to win in the long run.

Complete and in excellent condition.

TreasureQuest.jpg (155386 bytes) Treasure Quest  $5

Simple Ravensburger game for two that takes about 5 minutes to play. Each player has 10 large cardboard tiles showing diamonds or rubies and several cut out sections. You take turns placing these tiles hoping to reveal as many of your jewels on the tiles beneath. 

Complete and in excellent condition.

VegasShowdown_web.jpg (157495 bytes) Vegas Showdown  $20

Avalon Hill auction game about building the most famous casino.

Contents are complete and in excellent condition. Box has very minor damage to one corner.

Victory.jpg (177728 bytes) Victory: The Blocks Of War  $20

Complete and in excellent condition.

Warriors.jpg (59470 bytes) Warriors  $10

Alan Moon & Richard Borg game that was originally intended to be a card game version of Risk but re-themed to a fantasy setting. NOTE: Only Warriors is included -- the pictured Dragon Hordes expansion is NOT included. Shrink-wrapped.

WoodenShipsIronMen.jpg (159566 bytes) Wooden Ships & Iron Men  $10

Missing 10 of 24 "full sail" counters, otherwise complete and in very good condition.

Yummy  $4

A simple, fast-playing card game suitable for the entire family. On your turn you lay 1-3 cards on the appropriate pile(s). (Cards are numbered 3,4,5,6 or 7 and there's a separate pile for each number.) If you lay the third 3 or the fourth 4 (etc.) you collect all the cards in that pile (scoring one point for each card). The game ends once someone has depleted their personal draw deck.

Yummy is not a terribly deep game, but it's lots of light fun.

ZirkusFlohcati-web.JPG (159917 bytes) Zirkus Flohcati  $6

Excellent light filler from Reiner Knizia -- it's a set-collecting game with a push-your-luck element to it. On your turn you can take any of the available face-up cards. If you don't like what you see you can add to the pile as many times as you like, but if you duplicate the suit of any of the cards, your turn ends and you get nothing. This is the German language edition but an English-language set of rules is included. 

Complete and in excellent condition.
