Founders of Teotihuacan is a standalone game. When it is your turn, you must perform an action or pass. To perform an action, place 1, 2, or 3 of your action disks on an action space on the board and perform a corresponding action. Each action space can contain up to 4 action discs, including bonus discs! Your personal player board is divided into four districts. Buildings and temples can only be placed in the two districts closest to your architect. Pyramid tiles can only be placed within the six pyramid squares closest to your architect. After performing an action, move your architect clockwise to the next side of your player board. This changes your architect's range for your next turn. After all players have passed, the current round ends. After the game ends, players score additional victory points for how well the districts complete their pyramid.

Number of players: 1 - 4 players Game time: 60 - 120 minutes Age: From 14 years Publisher: Board & Dice Language: English As Egypt's power and splendor grows, its influence extends far beyond its borders.

The "Vassals of the Inca" module introduces a new secondary action that allows you to use specialties from other nations that your armies (or the armies of other players) conquer. The "Nobles and Newcomers" module is the largest of the new modules, and it introduces a number of new features: a new building type, newcomers, and several new passive buildings.

When Elsa von Frühlingfeld presented her invention to King Frederick Augustus II of Saxony, people thought it was a hoax. She used the recently isolated element uranium to heat a pot of water and used the steam to power an engine, keeping the uranium active through a process she called "atomization." Her device, the Nucleum, ushered in a new era of energy and prosperity for decades to come. Saxony grew from a small regional power to the center of European science and technology. Now, a generation later, factories are still hungry for more energy and demand bigger and more Nucleums to be built, more uranium is imported from the nearby country of Bohemia, and railways and power lines are built throughout the country to tame the power of the atoms to the great cities of Saxony. Inventors, engineers and industrialists flock to the Saxon court and compete to become the leader in this new industrial revolution. Nucleum is a complex board game in which players take on the role of industrialists trying to succeed during the economic and technological boom of 19th-century Saxony, powered by the invention and spread of the Nucleum (a nuclear reactor). Players earn victory points by developing their networks, building and powering urban buildings, securing contracts and completing milestones. Each player will also receive unique asymmetric technologies, granting them special powers when unlocked. The flow of the game is continuous; players take turns taking actions without rounds or phases.

It is the end of the 19th century and the Dutch landscape is dotted with more than 9,000 windmills. Some are specially built to keep the low-lying areas, the polders, dry. In the polders between these mills, there are fields full of colorful tulips. The tulip once played an important role during the turbulent history of the first financial bubble (tulip mania), but has now become an essential part of the Dutch landscape, especially along the famous Flower Route. In Windmill Valley, a game inspired by the Flower Route, you and up to three other players take on the role of tulip growers and entrepreneurs. You build mills and improve them. You look for new tulip bulbs to plant and you try to gain an advantage thanks to helpers and profitable contracts. Make sure your competition looks enviously at your beautiful flower fields!

Despite coral reefs covering less than 1% of the ocean floor, they are estimated to be home to approximately 25% of all marine species. Unfortunately, these colorful underwater cities are dying. Climate change and the resulting rising water temperatures are destroying the colorful algae that give coral reefs their brilliant hues, resulting in coral bleaching. In addition, other threats such as pollution in its many insidious forms and overfishing disrupt the delicate balance of reef ecosystems. That's why scientists from various disciplines, along with researchers studying the ecological complexity and importance of the reefs, are working together to address the many challenges these ecosystems face. Your assignment is to command a scientific ship and embark on a journey of reef conservation. Hire the best crew, clean the ocean and restore the reefs to their former glory. During the game, players take on the role of researchers and rescuers of the oceans. You will sail the seas, hire crew members, explore the coral reef, rid the ocean parts of pollution and try to complete as many missions as possible. During their turn, players can choose to charge or travel. When they load up, they receive the rewards from the VP track. As they travel, they can deploy Reef Balls, move their ship, play mission cards and perform various actions. The game is played over a variable number of rounds. When a player exceeds the 45 VP threshold, the end of the game is initiated. After an additional round, the final scoring takes place and the player with the most victory points wins.
