XXL News for All AGRICOLA Fans: This Is as Good as It Get’s
15 years since the release of Uwe Rosenberg's exceptional game! High time to bring former highlights and crazy farm excesses into the here and now in this anniversary edition. Everything in an XXL box, with card storage box, storage compartments for the components and the complete Agricola (revised Edition): Artifex and Agricola (Revised Edition): Bubulcus deck! An agricultural feel-good carefree package.
We have summed up your suggestions, wishes and proposals over the past years and – with the constantly rising material and production prices in mind – tried to keep the balance between #whatweallwant and – what retail und your purses might be in for.
The center of 15 years of Agricola - The Anniversary Box will of course be the Agricola (Revised Edition)*. For the very first time, we are adding the complete Agricola (revised Edition): Artifex and Agricola (Revised Edition): Bubulcus deck to the base game, plus some coveted older promo decks, which have been adapted to the Agricola (Revised Edition). A lot of effort, even more love and a few extra goodies have been added. We don't want to reveal everything today.
Above all, the box will offer one thing fans were looking for years: a fine inlay for quick setup and storage space for all previously released expansions that are compatible with the Revised Edition!
So this is it. 15 years of Agricola - The Anniversary Box:
- The ultimate starter package with lots of extras for all players, still swooning about owning your very own copy of Agricola (Revised Edition).
- The best opportunity to upgrade from first release Agricola from the 2007-2015 era to the heavily improved aka Revised Edition of 2016.
- Last but not least, the ultimate box for collectors, which also offers space for all your already existing Agricola (Revised Edition) expansions.
15 years of Agricola - The Anniversary Box will be launched at SPIEL `22 in Essen*. For our fans abroad: Asmodee and our distribution partners ordered copies in seven languages** for worldwide distribution - all of them are #limitedanniversaryedition.

Webshop maintenance and some Royal Eggs ahead.
Perfect Easter Treat: Ei my Goods! Royal Eggs
In Oh my Goods! by Alexander Pfister it’s all about getting the goods going! But what‘s this? A game in an egg? Yeah. Lookout sneaked into the Easter bunnies study to reveal ALL his secrets!!
Well, almost all of them are hidden in Ei my Goods!, Lookouts Easter Edition of this nice little card game for 2-4 players aged 10 and up:
“The players are crafts-bunnies, this time creating pastries, chocolates, Easter baskets and planting spring flowers (instead of coal, tools, clothes). The player who builds buildings which benefit from each other and manage their production chains best will gain the most victory points and become a master craftsman - aka Easter bunny.”

New games 2021: Consul Dirigens deck - Cantaloop 2 - Family Business
We have brought you something!
The Lookout team has been quite busy in 2021, so we can put something under your tree just in time for Christmas.
Even more cards for Agricola (Revised Edition 2016): The Consul Dirigens Deck
Every completionists dream comes true with the new 120 cards of the Agricola (Revised Edition 2016): Consul Dirigens Deck. 96 cards of this deck are the missing ones from the Corbarius Deck and Dulcinaria Deck expansions, which means that - finally - all four decks (Artifex Deck, Bubulcus Deck, Corbarius Deck and Dulcinaria Deck) are complete.
Similar to the cards in the base game, the cards in the Consul Dirigens Deck have been selected to provide a balanced feel to the game. In addition, this deck contains the Parent Cards mini expansion, which offers 24 cards (more details can be found on the Agricola (Revised Edition 2016): Consul Dirigens Deck page).
Already released in Germany. All other editions should be available soon-ish 1.
How to become a hacker: Time to get back to Cantaloop!
In 2021, we seem to have caught the nimbler vessel (see A game award, Cantaloop and Christmas holidays from Dec. 12th, 2020): The new edition of Cantaloop - Book 1: Breaking into Prison is already available in (German) stores 1. This December 1, the eagerly awaited sequel to our PAPER POINT'N CLICK adventure will finally be available:
After the chaotic, but at least successful events of the first part, in Cantaloop - Book 2: A Hack of a Plan the story continues. Oz "Hook" Carpenter's team is assembled, and the goal is set. Now, how do you best use your team's unique skills to forge a watertight revenge plan against the city's biggest crook? Explore beautifully illustrated locations, interact with new characters, and most importantly - solve tricky puzzles!
Do you have it? Find out in this fabulous PAPER POINT'N CLICK adventure by Friedemann Findeisen.
Christmas season - family time? Yes, if it weren't for that other gang...
Nothing beats family. Well - your own family, of course. If foreign gangsters want to make themselves at home in your area, ALL family members actively help to eliminate the opponents. It's Family Business after all. In the end, the winner is the gang that has family members left standing.
In this remake of a classic card game by David B. Bromley, you must play your cards well. You are the gangster boss of your Family Business and of course you want to be the only one in town. However, to become the only one, you obviously have to get rid of all the members of the OTHER families. Murder missions, raids, intrigues, ambushes, gang warfare - are you brave enough for this job? Only the player who still has crooks left at the end of the game can rule the city and call himself #BigBoss from now on...
In this fast-paced trick-taking game for 3-6 players aged 8 and up, you'll not only be in for a hot time, you'll also come across one or two familiar faces as we have rounded up the #Family for this edition:
We thank our sister companies Asmodee Nordics (a.k.a. The Enigma?), Asmodee Italia (a.k.a. Asterions), Asmodee Taiwan (a.k.a. F.U.N. Gang), CATAN Studio (a.k.a. Woolly Woolies), and ADC Blackfire (a.k.a. BlackFIRE) for adding their own little gang to this game.
Will the Lookout's be there, too? Come to town and find out...
Well, let’s finish your wish list for Christmas!
