Jolly Games produces or sells board and card games designed or codesigned by
Tom Jolly. We will continue to design games as long as people enjoy them!
NEWS
Cave Troll 2nd edition is released!
This edition has a whole new set of characters in addition to the original set, and they're all represented with cool plastic miniatures. You draw a card (instead of a token as in the first edition) which tells you what the character does, and which miniature to use. You can order from my order page.
Drakon 3rd Edition is released!
Drakon 3rd edition features plastic miniatures for the characters, larger tiles, new art, and reference cards for each player. It also includes many of the best tiles from the first expansion set, resulting in a larger tile-set than the original.
If you want to order a copy from here, check out the ordering info here.
Drakon Expansion Set On Sale!
If you've got a second-edition Drakon, here's you're chance to get a copy of the expansion set for only $6 plus shipping ($2.79, if you don't buy anything else).
Camelot and Cargo are still available from Wingnut Games or from us. You can find info to order it here. Camelot is a 20 minute light-hearted but tense wargame that'll make you sweat. The theme is light (a bunch of Arthurs going after Excalibur, with a bunch of Gallahads, Lancelots, Merlins, and Morgan Le Fays in supporting roles). The game moves as fast as a video game, with two players (out of 3 to 6) moving at the same time all the time. Wingnut Games also makes Cargo, a strategy game loosely simulating the tea-tossing party in the Boston Harbor. Check them out!
Puzzles:
I design puzzles, too, and some people produce them. On occasion you can see a couple of them at Eric Fuller's site, Cubic Dissection, although he tends to make very few at a time, so might be sold out of them at any given time. Another puzzle-craftsman is Bernard Schweitzer, in Germany, at Puzzlewood. He has quite a wide selection of puzzles available from many designers.
Wiz-War
8th edition is still not out. No, I don't know when.
We continue to take PayPal, but do not take credit cards. Paypal, checks and money orders are preferred. See Ordering Info.
And, just to start something new, some genealogy stuff (Tombstones of Red Oak, Ohio). This is the start of my page on Jolly geneology, among other families, some of which are not related at all! Including, but not limited to; Kelley, Underwood, Burt, Minor, Merriam, Mitchell, and others. To see pictures of these and other folks, go to my genealogy page.
