Proton by Looney Labs
First to recommend
Description
This is a 1 or 2 player game made out of one of those little plastic things where you usually have to slide tiles around until you have a picture. The very idea of a two player game in this format is pretty cool, and the game itself is pretty good too. It *looks* like you'd never end but the strategy in such a little thing is actually fairly significant. It's a fun, very portable, game for two players.

List that features this:
Fluxx Blanxx
First to recommend
Description
Anyone that's enjoyed Fluxx for more than a few weeks, often for more than a few hours, thinks up new cards. With these packs of blanks, you can make those cards a reality. The pack contains 12 blanks: 5 Goals, 3 Keepers, 2 New Rules, 2 Actions, plus some bonus stuff. All the cards have the proper Fluxx backs, so they mix in with the standard cards. I made an expansion based on the solar system using three packs of blanks, but you're limited only by your imagination. You could make cards with your friends' names on. Perhaps you have to sing "I'm a little teapot" to play a card. Maybe you create one card that forces a player to use a blank and create a new card. The possibilities are endless.

Early American Chrononauts
First to recommend
Description
It's a time travel card game, with an Early American history flavour. (I guess that would be "flavor".) As in Chrononauts, you play a time traveller whose world is just a little different to the "real" one. You can alter the timeline by changing key events and then guilding the flow-on effects in order to re-create the timeline you came from and return home. Or you can follow your mission and collect notable artifacts from different times. Or you can just patch the paradoxes other people create. Warn Secessionist leaders of impending arrests and Maryland secedes. Prevent Union soldiers from finding Special Order 191 and the Confederacy advances. Do both and the South wins the Civil War. Or maybe you'd rather travel off elsewhere and collect Marie Antoinette's Cake, or Napoleon's Napoleon. It can be combined with Chrononauts to create a massive ÜberChrononauts game. Or you can play cut-down games either in small groups or solo.

Sabotage the Manhattan Project and cause World War 3 -- ultimately allowing the evolution of sentient cockroaches. Collect a live brontosaurus from 149 Million BC (her name is Emily). It can be expanded with the small "Lost Identities" pack and it can also be combined with Early American Chrononauts to create a massive ÜberChrononauts game. Or you can play cut-down games either in small groups or solo.

Martian Coasters by Looney Labs
First to recommend
Description
It's a boardgame where the "board" is a set of four coasters. It's an expansion to Treehouse. For an extra buck you can order the "2006 Holiday Gift" to expand it to a 5-player game. It's just so cool.

Treehouse - a basic ICEHOUSE game from Looney Labs
First to recommend
Description
A simple little abstract game that lends itself to many variants and expansions. Available in two different sets of colours. I got both, plus the Martian Coasters expansion, giving me 2-9 player Treehouse and 2-5 player Martian coasters (when you include the 2006 promo fifth coaster). And that's just the beginning

Fluxx by Looney Labs
First to recommend
Description
Wonderful card game, great for parties. Easy to learn, hard to master -- but enough chaos such that new players aren't necessarily disadvantaged. Available in a range of themes, plus you can get extra cards to mix into the deck.
