Greater Than Games was founded in January 2011 and they design and publish tabletop gaming products. They are best known for Sentinels of the Multiverse, a co-op card game for 3 to 5 players who control a team of super powered heroes and battle a dastardly villain. It has a stream lined game play experience that is easy to learn but still requires strategic team based thinking.

We’ve never been fully sure who the villains in Desert Bus are, though that bug splat is very suspicious), but with Greater Than Games and Sentinels of the Multiverse with us we’ll be ready to take them on.

Thank you Greater Than Games for supporting Desert Bus!

 Yellowjacket Comics and Toys is a staple of the Victoria BC nerd landscape. If you want your Magic: the Gathering fix, you go to YJ; it has the largest collection of MtG singles in the city, and is home to an incredibly lively Magic community, hosting tons of tournaments each week. As you can imagine, the LRR crew is highly familiar with Yellowjacket and many members have made it a second home where they compete, trade, and build decks. This is Yellowjacket’s first year as a Desertbus sponsor, but they are already a member of the family and we’re thrilled to have them! Thank you, Yellowjacket!

Harry Potter Gryffindor House Scarf

This thing is nice, bidders. Crafter Eri Riot swore off knitting these scarfs, but she got back into the game one last time for this year’s Desert Bus. This luscious knit Gryffindor scarf is perfect for the Hogwarts wannabe student/alumnus in your life. It also includes a 3″ Gryffindor button and Hogwarts pocket mirror.

Zelda Goddesses Cross Stitch

This detailed cross-stitch combines the symbols for the three goddesses of the Legend of Zelda series with a quote from Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night in an elegant gilt frame. Some are born great; some have greatness thrust upon them; and others win greatness in a silent auction. Wanna be the latter? Get in on this sweet piece of original art!
