Dive Into the Fun With Finspan

This week we are thrilled to feature Finspan, the beautifully illustrated, aquatic-themed strategy game from the creators of Wingspan, but with streamlined gameplay and an aquatic theme, for 1-5 players.

You are a marine researcher seeking to find and observe an array of aquatic life. You’ll explore the depths of the different areas of the ocean, from the colorful Sunlight Zone to the deep, dark Midnight Zone and place fish, eggs, young, or schools into specific zones.  Discover vibrant marine life, and strategically manage resources to create a thriving oceanic habitat in the colorful Sunlight Zone, the ghostly Twilight Zone, and the pitch-black Midnight Zone of the world’s seas and oceans.

During the course of the game players will build their own underwater ecosystem and the fish you discover over 4 rounds will generate a series of benefits as you dive deeper into the ocean. The winner is the player with the most points gained from fish, eggs, young, schools, and achievements.

Gems of Iridescia 11/03/2025

Join us in the fantastical world of Iridescia. This abandoned world, lush with rare gems has been vacant for centuries due to a cataclysmic event forcing it’s inhabitants to take to the skies. The land is now safe to return to and it’s former residents are coming home. Take on the role of one of 4 clans to explore the lands, mine gems, restore ancient relics, and find the lost Iridia Stone to ascend to the throne and re-unite the people of Iridescia!

Gems of Iridescia is a worker-placement board game in which players will push their luck as they compete to mine gems, restore ancient relics and ascend to the throne of a rich gem-filled world. Secret objectives and a variety of ways to score create different paths to victory make every expedition a unique experience.

Explore Iridescia by flipping over land tiles, revealing the gems hidden beneath them and then roll dice to mine them. Each gem color is tied to a dice value that can be manipulated to help your cause. Roll high enough, and you can claim more gems, adding them to your cargo hold providing you with a valuable resource for restoring relics and scoring royalty points!

Sell some of your hard earned Gems and visit Rumi the Travelling Merchant to purchase tools that will grant your adventurers exciting new abilities to aid in their search for Iridescia’s treasures!

Your trove of Gems can be used to restore Iridescia’s ancient relics. Restoring Relics will gain you tons of Royalty Points and solidify your claim to the throne!

Special thanks to designer Roberto Panetta and publisher Rock, Stone & Dice Games for donating a copy of Gems of Iridescia to the Goose Games library.
