Travel back in time to the Qin dynasty, when the Chang Cheng (long wall) was under construction, in the attempt to unify the provinces and protect them from the "Marauders of the North".

For every province that becomes protected by a player, he or she will collect a reputation point. The idea is to strategically place a fortified wall that will keep the Mongols from taking your points at the end of the game. You will use a combination of double-sided board maps, action cards, event cards, reputation counters, threat counters, and wall blocks to play this game. The person with the most reputation points after the final phase, when the Mongol attack occurs and negative points are thereby distributed, wins the game!

Place a crystal on any open grid space in line with the numbers rolled. Is someone else's crystal on the space you want? Roll against your opponent in an official Gnome "squabble." Large crystals add +2 to any roll of the dice, as well as additional points in final scoring. But you only get two of these big rocks, so play them wisely. When the crystals run out, tally up the number of times you've managed to position three crystals in a row. High score wins, which is definitely something to phone gnome about!

Who's the best angler? In Gone Fishing, one player takes the role of the two anglers and tries to catch as many fish as possible. The other player takes the role of the fish and with bluff and skill tries to hinder the anglers from catching fish. The angler player decides where to fish, but must do so in the dark (that is, he cannot really see where the fish are), as the fish cards are placed face down. Because of this, he does not know whether he is catching a fish or garbage. Also, when he is lucky enough to catch a fish, he will not know until he lands it how valuable it is. With clever movement of his fish, the fish player tries to get garbage and small fish onto the anglers hooks!

Similar to Scrabble, players are creating word puzzles in a crossword fashion, only with Saygo, you do not have a community board. Instead, players builds their own word puzzles in front of them. Letters are worth points (vowels are worth 1 point, consonants 2 points, and super consonants J, K, Qu, X, and Z, are worth 4) the object of the game is to be the first player to reach 500 points. Every player randomly selects eight tiles and places them face down. Simultaneously, players turn them over and begin building the puzzles with as many letters from their individual pile as possible. Once someone has used up all eight tiles, he or she says "Saygo" and all players will select another tile. If nobody can use their tiles it is a stalemate, and everyone selects another tile. Should players find they can not use all of their tiles, they have the option of rearranging their puzzles as often as needed, in attempt to use all letters. The game continues until all tiles are used and the last person to use his/her last tile yells "done". Once the group verifies the accuracy of the winning player's words, the winner collects the remaining letters and adds them to his/her score.

TICKET TO RIDE SWITZERLAND

Calling all fans of Ticket To Ride games! Jump aboard with the latest expansion game, Ticket To Ride Switzerland! This newest game is expressly designed for two to three players and requires a provision of forty trains (and the corresponding scoring markers) and 110 train cards from either Ticket To Ride, Ticket To Ride Europe, or Ticket To Ride Marklin. The fold out board, like the other games, is nicely featured with the same quality you would expect to find from a Days of Wonder board game. Some of the rules have been changed, compelling players to employ different strategies. Instead of the maximum of forty-six trains per player, this game allows for only forty trains each. For anyone who was working on their last route and ran out of trains, you understand the frustration and importance of this new rule! There are also forty-six destination tickets for the Swiss map, although some of these new cards can take you to adjacent countries. You still earn ten bonus points for having the longest and connected train routes. The locomotive cards (which are the multi-colored "wild cards" that can stand in for any other color) can now only be placed on the tunnel routes (before they could be played on any route). Also, when selecting cards from the train card pile, you can pick up two locomotive cards (just as you would with the regular train colors) instead of just one. These extra features will make for an interesting game! Please Note: This is not a stand alone game. It requires components from either Ticket To Ride, Ticket To Ride Europe, or Ticket To Ride Marklin. Contents of Ticket To Ride Switzerland: 1 Board Map of Switzerland Train Routes 46 Destination Tickets 1 Instruction Booklet in English, French, German, Spanish, Finnish, Norwegian, and Dutch.

UBONGO

Fast! Simple! Fun! Ubongo! In Ubongo, everybody plays at the same time, racing against each other and the clock to solve their individual puzzles. Each player uses their own puzzle board and 12 differently shaped tiles. One player then rolls the special die and turns the sand timer. Now the race is on as players work frantically to place their tiles and solve their puzzle. The fastest player shouts "Ubongo!" and moves their pawn on the common game board and takes two jewels. The other players continue to try to solve their puzzles and collect jewels before time runs out. The game ends when every puzzle board is used, i.e. nine rounds. The player who has collected the most jewels of one color is the winner but that player won't necessarily always be the fastest at Ubongo!
