Mystic TowerBasic Concepts adds another game to the Relic Raiders line with Mystic Tower. Relic Raiders is a series of pop-up board games that unfold to create a three-dimensional playing surfaces with movable paths and other elements that can be manipulated by the players. The story behind the game, described in an accompanying comic book, involves two-person teams of treasure hunters, each with their own unique skills and strengths.

Another game recently released by Basic Concepts is Fast4Words, in which players take turns placing letter blocks in to an upright grid—kind of like building a word-search puzzle. Players score points for building words, but also for moving quickly (as measured by the built-in electronic timer).
