Green Deal

In Green Deal you lead an international corporation in 2050! It is your job to increase the profits and plan the finances. But your business must not only be profitable. Due to resource scarcity and social distemper, governments increasingly require clean production and compliance with social standards from you. Also the customers have become more demanding. That's why you initiate PR campaigns. Do good and most of all, talk about it!

Each round players invest in project and action cards. About thirty different action cards give you special abilities. Before each round all players bid simultaneously for the turn order. On the world map you can cooperate with adjacent projects of other players or harm them financially.

It is important to develop in all four project categories because you receive extra points for your weakest one. Moreover, the players with the best reputation in each category receive extra victory points. In PR Campaigns you can secretly decide in which area you want to boost your image.

Try to predict the moves of your competitors and develop your own strategy to win Green Deal!

Step To It

From the back of the box:

Here's a game that will have you walking, jumping, and hopping all around the house! Ask a player to give you a card with a specific number of steps to take. Then choose an object that you think you can reach in exactly that number. Can you walk to the fridge in 9 steps? How about hop to something that starts with the letter A in 15? Reach your goal and walk away with a win!

Ages 5 and up.

Kids learn estimating distance and spacial relations.

Flip Over Frog

The flippin' frogs are coming! Help your brightly coloured frogs take control of your little corner of the rainforest!

Cleverly place frogs on the game board to flip adjacent tiles, hiding some frogs and revealing others. Each player is given a secret Frog Token at the beginning of the game, determining what colour frogs they are trying to get on to the board. After dealing three tiles to each player, the game begins. Tiles can be placed on any empty space on the 4x4 board, or on the back of any face down tile. Frogs may NOT be placed on top of face up tiles.

When placed, the arrows on the tile which surround the frog tell the player which nearby tiles should be flipped. If a tile is stacked on another, both tiles are flipped together. Only the newly placed tile causes other tiles to flip.

Also included are four Snake Tiles which remove any one face up Frog Tile from the game. Both the Frog and Snake are discarded, freeing up a space for a new tile to be played.

Players keep playing a tile and drawing back up to a hand of three until either no more tiles can be played or the board has sixteen face up frogs on show. This triggers the end of the game, and the player with the most frogs face up is the winner.

Plan ahead, watch out for snakes, and flip your way to victory!

Spot it!

Spot it!, a.k.a. Dobble, is a simple pattern recognition game in which players try to find an image shown on two cards.

Each card in original Spot it! features eight different symbols, with the symbols varying in size from one card to the next. Any two cards have exactly one symbol in common. For the basic Spot it! game, reveal one card, then another. Whoever spots the symbol in common on both cards claims the first card, then another card is revealed for players to search, and so on. Whoever has collected the most cards when the 55-card deck runs out wins!

Rules for different games – each an observation game with a speed element – are included with Spot it!, with the first player to find a match either gaining or getting rid of a card. Multiple versions of Spot it! have been published, with images in each version ranging from Halloween to hockey to baseball to San Francisco.

The game is sold as Spot it! in the USA and Dobble in Europe, with slight differences between the two editions.

Note: some versions have fewer cards and fewer symbols per card. (E.g. 30 cards with 6 symbols each.): Spot it Jr.! Animals
