Oh yeah, some exciting new board games and game expansions arrived this week! Here’s a quick overview of what’s just arrived.
New Game Arrival!
Ticket To Ride Rails & Sails Days Of Wonder
We’re excited that Ticket To Ride: Rails & Sails, the newest in the Ticket To Ride series has arrived. This stand-alone game comes with a double-sided board.
It’s time for a new railroad adventure – play The World on one side and The Great Lakes on the flip side. Players collect cards of various types (trains and ships) that allow them to claim rail or sea routes. There are 2 types of travel decks: Colored Trains and Colored Ships. There are wild cards that can be used as either a ship or a train. Some of the ship cards count as 2 ships. An interesting game mechanic is that players will have to pare down their supply of trains and ships after choosing their starting destination cards.

Available Again!
Schotten Totten Iello
Back in print is Schotten Totten, a classic Reiner Knizia game.
This is a 2-player card game where you each represent a Scottish clan defending your turf. Nine stone tiles separates you from your opponent. The objective is to be the first to claim any 5 of the 9 tiles or to claim 3 adjacent tiles. Through out the game you will play numbered clan cards behind the tiles on your side of the border in a poker manner. When a tile has 3 cards played from each side, the player who played the strongest hand wins the tile (i.e. 3-of-a-kind beats a run of different colors).
