Published in Germany by Alea: The game is about Jakob Fugger, who was probably the wealthiest man of his time. 'Jakob the Rich', as he was named in his time, owned so much money that he loaned money to a host of counts and kings. Often, they were not able to repay him in cash so they awarded him special privileges, such as trade rights and offices.

Players assume the role of the merchants from Augsburg and try to get what they can - by means of auctions - from the nobility, thus increasing their wealth and particularly their social status.

Designed by Reiner Knizia, Dragonlands pits players against each other in an attempt to save as much treasure for their Dragon benefactors as they can before the volcanoes where they are hidden erupt. Four groups have been asked to aid the Dragons in their plight, dwarves, elves, humans, and magicians, who all compete to gather the most treasure and the ultimate favour of the Dragons Players must use strategy and cunning to remain ahead of the competition and reap the greatest rewards.

Climb aboard your trusty steed and lift off for the race of your life! The players race their dragons on a course in a deep and winding canyon. You have some magic to use to aid your cause, or hinder your opponents, but the real test is your skill at maneuvering your dragon through the course to reach the finish line ahead of the others. Players choose their speeds on each round secretly, but then must move at that speed, even if other dragons or canyon walls are in the way.

The movement system gives players more maneuverability at lower speeds than at higher, so you cannot turn your dragon on a dime unless you are going very slowly - an important consideration in those hairpin turns!

The track is made of two-sided tiles, so players can design their own races and change them every race to keep things fun and exciting!

Tug of war in the Scottish highlands Players play cards instead of using their own muscle-power in this Scottish tug-of-war game. A player can play cards on either side of the rope: high cards on his side and, naturally, low cards on the other. With an energetic "heave-ho!", players compare their strengths and move the whisky barrel in the direction of the strongest team. Beware: both players have access to a handful of tricks! Traitors can exist on both sides. The rope can break! Or Nessie can join one side to help or feed! At the end, the player who has the whisky barrel on his side of the board, wins the round. But a full match is the best of five rounds!
