Take game night on an undersea adventure! Your journey to the deepest reaches of the unexplored sea floor was meant to be revolutionary—but everything has gone terribly wrong. Now you're trapped in the crushing dark of the Midnight Zone, with a wrecked submarine and quickly dwindling oxygen—and something is stirring in the depths. . . . In The Living Infinite, players work together as scientists gathering materials from the ocean floor to repair their ship, while one or two players move as creatures, hunting the scientists down through the inky depths. With asymmetrical, one-versus-many play, it’s an undersea adventure of quick wits and strategic social prediction.

From a farting bulldog to a Labrador that likes opera, he chronicled the character and personality of everyday dogs. The result was a wildly successful Instagram account. The Year of the Dogs features over 100 dogs from this series of exquisite photos with close-ups, profiles, and full body shots along with a narrative about each dog.
