Celebrate Freedom!

Cheapass Games invites you to celebrate America’s 250th Birthday with 250% off all of our free games!

Did you know that nothing can still buy what it always has? And no matter how you calculate percentages, there’s nothing cheaper than nothing at all.

Cheapass Games would like to remind you that there is a huge collection of completely free PDFs at Cheapassic Park, the mysterious tropical island next door to Crab Fragment Cay, where you can find wandering herds of ancient games that nature chose for extinction.

Print them for free, play them with joy, and celebrate with us today!

New Game: Rochi

Nine years in the making, this gorgeous game from the pages of Sonia Lyris’ Unmoored is now available from DriveThruCards. If you haven’t looked at Rochi, it’s a unique pub game featuring a tarot-like deck, with stunning illustrations by Mark Ferrari.

This game has been in “public beta” for an entire growth cycle of game licensing, since long before we sold our catalog to the people we just got it back from. And now it’s finally ready, and we are so excited to share it with you.

You can find the rules for free at the Rochi page, and order the deck from DriveThruCards.

New at the Workshop

The latest curiosity from James Ernest’s wood shop is the Lejano Board, a sleek and beautiful 5x5 game board, named after a city in the Carrisor universe.

This board was devised as a perfect platform for El Oso, a solo game from that world, though of course it’s also perfect for Tak and dozens of traditional abstract games.

This first collection of Lejano boards has a mix of random wood species (scraps of scraps), and they are selling fast. Check out all the offerings in the workshop, including our recent restock of maple and walnut Linos kits!

Schedule Update

James Ernest has just added RageCon to his summer schedule! RageCon is an absolutely stellar event, now in its eleventh year, and they were nice enough to let James invite himself at the last minute. Come play games, meet James, and enjoy all the pleasures of Reno Nevada. For more insight into James’ movements, be sure to check out the ever-changing schedule page.

Thanks as always! We appreciate our subscribers and thank you for all you do, even if it’s free. Please share our games with the world and help Cheapass Games seep into the consciousness of a whole new generation of players!

Thanks for playing, and we’ll see you at the table!
