Now In!..... Taj Mahal is new from Reiner Knizia. It looks great, and rumor has it it plays great too! Phone Phil for pricing and order your copy today. Samurai Swords is back in stock again, for those of you waiting! Silverton ithe new edition of the classic "Game of Colorado Railroading" is now available. Chinatown lets you master the business world of 1930s Chinatown... Torres, the game of castle building is back in stock after a reprint. Hot List!...... Ra! (5*) is on our current play list, and deserves a special mention. Although its a simple game, well presented, easy to learn and quick to play, Ra! takes some mastering. You pit your wits against other kings through three epochs, building up your civilisation as you go. Your aim is to gain the most prestige in the eyes of the Sun God by the end of the third epoch. To play, you place random tiles on a track, then when the Sun God is invoked (either by a fellow player or one of the random tiles), everyone bids for the current set of tiles. Winner takes all....... Well, it sounds easy enough doesnt it? Give it a go, you wont be disappointed. On to El Grande (4*), set in Spain of the Middle Ages. Your task is to win court influence by taking control of the various provinces. A bidding game where you bid to win first choice of the available action cards enabling you to build up your influence, thwart the actions of other players or generally throw a spanner in the works! Ah! and dont forget invasion tactics! Need to make your presence felt in Valencia? Then place an invasion force off shore in the Castillo and surprise the living daylights out of the Valencian courtesans when the time comes. This game is strategic, and takes some getting used to - dont expect to win against old hands straight away! But it is addictive like all the best games are. There is a companion game, El Caballero (3*), set in the New World, where exploration is the name of the game. A good tile placer, but not quite up to El Grande standards. Finally Tigris and Euphrates (5*), set in the cradle of civilization. Its an abstract tile placing game with a high skill level and little random element. Proper review coming soon. Try King of the Elves (3*), for a bit of fun. Build kingdoms, lay obstacles, raise taxes and use brigands to gain tribute from the people you govern. Try and stop the other princes from getting as much cash, and you become king of the elves! Great fun! Try TIKAL! (5*), adventure and exploration in the jungles of South America. One of the best looking games around at the moment, with really nice feel to it. Explore ruins and gain treasures with your band of archaeologists. We are playing Kahuna! (3*), a 2 player game of strategy with a bit of luck too!. The game is based around an Island chain, where two powerful wizards test their skills. They devised a duel where each would build bridges between islands, gaining control of the island if they had most briodges. The winner after a certain time would be the wizard controlling most islands. You simply draw cards from a face up or face down stack, build or destroy bridges using the cards and aim to control islands. Each island has a maximum number of bridges, and the wizard with more than half the maximum number has control. Its a good game, and will appeal to those of you with a strategic mind. Its not about magic, its about your brain! Will Settlers of Catan (4*) make it out of the cupboard this month - you bet it will! Still one of the best games around, if you have not played, your life is incomplete! Dont forget to check out the Seafarers expansion set for the original game. Why not try a Big Islands game using two or more sets, great fun....
