New Games through Button Shy Direct! Here’s all of the details.

Coming out of the fiery ashes of the board game tariffs is Button Shy Direct - our timed preorder program. We have launched the first games today (July 1, 2025). They'll be available at discounted prices until July 15, 2025 (or they sell out) and they’ll be here and ready to ship to you in August 2025. Check below for what will (and more importantly WON’T) be in future club packages.

So what is it? Basically the tariffs caused us to switch card printers and the US printer takes a lot longer than the Chinese printer. So we ordered a bunch of games ahead of time and are trying out something new.

The prices are low like a Kickstarter. Even less because we don’t have their fees to deal with. And it’s all live right now at our site!

Cuckoos love to hide and trick everyone! Get the animals in the right order to foil their plans! 

Race to get your animals in the right order to claim the trophy. You'll need to listen carefully and act quickly to beat the competition. 

The suns of Malvios are dying. Across the planet, survivors race to glean what hope for the future they can find in the failing light. Citizens of different skillsets converge to find the best path forward – and the team they’ll need to follow it.

The story and gameplay of Converge spans across several sets. Each one comes in their own wallet and includes 3 unique 6-card skillsets. All sets can be played individually as standalone games, or players can combine any 3 skillsets from multiple sets to create a new combination.

No Chinese New Year celebration is complete without the lion dance. In a popular variation of the dance—especially in Malaysia—the lion dancers perform gravity-defying jumps between poles of increasing heights to the rhythm of beating cymbals, gongs, and drums.

Stage the best lion dance to win! Build platforms for your dancers to leap across as they move along the stage. Fill your dance with exciting complicated maneuvers to earn the crowd’s approval.
