Players affect how quickly or slowly the ships move and can trigger pirate raids that may cost their opponents their goods.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe game has a small board that shows the route the ships will follow, marking safe ports and dangerous waters. The board also has two spaces for the draw pile and discard pile and shows where the Market and Farm cards are laid out. The game also contains a deck of cards that have multiple uses, 48 achievement tokens for when goods are sold, four ship pieces to mark how far the ships have sailed, four trader pieces to indicate a player's scoring pile, four reservation pieces for players to mark cards they wish to purchase or take on a later round and a rulebook.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe game is a set collection game at its core. Player are attempting to collect sets of goods that will allow them to collect cards that will be worth points at the end of the game.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDuring the game, the cards can be used to represent goods when laid out in front of players, to represent gold to purchase good when played from their hands or urns which players will use to protect goods from pirates. Deciding how to use the cards and when is the basis of playing the game.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOn a player's turn, they can do one of three things: Buy Goods, Get Coins or Reserve a Card.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBuying goods has the player buying cards from the Market. There will be a number of cards laid out, face up, in the Market. Each card has a gold value in the corners and indicates how much a card is worth (either 2, 3 or 5). When a player buys goods, they must buy all the cards in the Market, using cards in hand to pay. If a player cannot afford the whole Market, they cannot do this action. Any cards purchased this way are laid out, face up, in front of the player. These goods are now aboard the ship of the matching colour. Then the player moves each matching ship either 1 or 2 spaces towards Carthage (1 space if 1 card of that colour was purchased, 2 spaces if 2 or more cards were purchased). If a ship moves onto Carthage, a payout occurs and pirates attack (this will be explained in detail later). If the Market is bought out or if the current player can't take or buy market cards (due to reservation pieces), the cards in the Farm (3 face up cards) are moved to the market. 2 cards are drawn from the draw pile and are added to the Market. Then 3 new cards are drawn for the Farm and are placed face up.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGetting coins has the player taking a single card from the Market and placing it in his hand. That card is now money, its value indicated by the gold value in the corners. This is the only way players can increase the amount of money they have.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReserving a card has the player placing their Reservation piece on a card in the Market or in the Farm. This card is now unavailable to all other players. The Reservation piece is now committed to that card and can't be taken back until the owning player acquires the reserved card either as money or as a good. The owning player may take the card on his next turn or leave it, assuming there is another legal play he can do.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter taking his turn, the next player takes his action, and so on until the game ends.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf a payout occurs, each player that has good on that ship takes part. First the players count how many of that coloured good they have. Then they look at the value of the goods and determine which has the highest value. They take that value and multiply it by the number of cards in the set, rounding up to the nearest 5 or 10. For example, if a player has 3 yellow goods and the highest value is 3, they would multiply 3 by 3 to get 9, then round up to 10. The player then takes that value and divides by 5. The result indicates how many cards of that set the player keeps. Keeping with the example, the player would divide 10 by 5 to get a result of 2. This means the player keeps 2 out of the 3 cards from the set. Players keep the lowest valued card first and work their way up until they have the reached their limit. These cards are placed face down near the players with their trader piece on the pile, indicating this is their scoring pile. At the end of the game each card in the scoring pile is worth 1 point. This procedure is completed for each ship that reached Carthage. Then those ships are moved back to Alexandria, ready for another voyage. Each player that had a payout then takes 1 achievement token for each colour they scored (not each card they scored).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen during a payout, any player that scores and has matching achievement tokens to the scored goods will add the amount of tokens they have to the highest value card in the set. They then figure out how many cards they keep. For example, if a player has 3 blue cards with the highest value being 5. The player also has two blue tokens. The player would add 2 (for his tokens) to 5 for a value of 7. Then he would multiply 7 by 3, getting 21 and round up to 25. After dividing 25 by 5, the player can keep 5 cards. If a player gets to keep more cards than in the set, as in this example, they keep the entire set and draw cards from the top of the draw pile to make up the difference. These drawn cards are kept face down and are added to the score pile.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter the payout, any ships that are in the two Pirate spaces are attacked. Affected players may now discards cards from their hand to protect their goods on those ships. Each card has either 2, 1 or no urns on them. When you discard a card with 2 urns, two goods of that colour are protected from the pirates. For example, if a player has 2 blue goods and discards a blue card with 2 urns, then he may choose which two cards are protected. After all players have finished discarding cards (which if voluntary; players are not required to protect their goods), the attacked ships are moved back to the nearest safe port and may move again towards Carthage.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe game ends once a player has 8 or more Achievement tokens of the same colour. The winner is the player with the highest score (number of cards in their score pile). If there is a tie, the tiebreaker is the number of Achievement tokens the tied players have. If there is still a tie, then the game ends in a tie.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"(Unknown)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":391648090,"sku":"ZMG71550","price":12.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/9631\/products\/Traders_of_Osaka.png?v=1578608832"},{"product_id":"kakerlaloop","title":"Kakerlaloop","description":"\u003ctable width=\"100%\" padding=\"1\" margin=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesigner\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\n\n\u003cdiv id=\"link4526286\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.boardgamebliss.com\/collections\/inka-brand\"\u003eInka Brand\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"link4526287\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.boardgamebliss.com\/collections\/markus-brand\"\u003eMarkus Brand\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\n\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.boardgamebliss.com\/collections\/all\/ravensburger\"\u003eRavensburger Spieleverlag GmbH\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlayers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2-4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlaytime\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10-15 mins\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuggested Age\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5 and up\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr id=\"bgg-row\" style=\"display: none;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd id=\"bgg-column-info\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdditional Info\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd id=\"bgg-column\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"bgg-url\" style=\"display: none;\"\u003e172310\/kakerlaloop\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"bgg-forum-url\" style=\"display: none;\"\u003ehttp:\/\/boardgamegeek.com\/forum\/1608260\/kakerlaloop\/reviews\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote: This game is in German\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKakerlaloop\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e is a spinoff of \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.boardgamebliss.com\/products\/kakerlakak\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eKakerlakak\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"Ravensburger","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":1620547649,"sku":"1620547649","price":39.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/9631\/products\/pic2409596_lg.jpg?v=1578609013"},{"product_id":"the-game-spiel-so-lange-du-kannst","title":"The Game: Spiel... so lange du kannst!

Curiously the world is smaller than you might think because in the eyes of a magician the world consists only of magical power lines and power fields, specifically four power lines: earth, fire, air and water. Wherever these lines enfold the space, the power fields are created; wherever the lines cross each other, the corners of these fields materialize. (In game terms, four colored strings — each tied to a ring — are placed on the table overlapping one another at the start of the game.) The magicians summon ghosts and demons to rule the world — but at the start of it all nobody knows which type of creature will be the strongest:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGhosts\u003c\/strong\u003e – white creatures – appear in the center of a power field, and wherever they are summoned, everything freezes in terror.

(Ghosts and demons are wooden pawns drawn from a cloth bag.) As soon as no more creature can be summoned, the fate of the world is decided – and one of the colors will be the strongest. Only once during the game can each magician predict a color, whether one of the demon colors or ghostly white, and each magician must predict a different color. (A player predicts a color by placing a pawn of the color in front of him.) This look into the future costs a lot of energy, and as soon as someone predicts a color, he will be harassed by fate and the other magicians.

One of the five action cards that is always available each round allows you to move the king to a new region. The other four action cards vary from round to round.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe goal is to have a majority of \u003cem\u003ecaballeros\u003c\/em\u003e in as many regions (and the \u003cem\u003ecastillo\u003c\/em\u003e) as possible during a scoring round. Following the scoring of the \u003cem\u003ecastillo\u003c\/em\u003e, you place any meeples you had stashed there into the region you had secretly indicated on your region dial. Each region is then scored individually according to a table printed in that region. Two-point bonuses are awarded for having sole majority in the region containing your \u003cem\u003eGrande\u003c\/em\u003e (large meeple) and in the region containing the king.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEl Grande Big Box\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e, the 20th anniversary edition of \u003cem\u003eEl Grande\u003c\/em\u003e, includes all previously published expansions: \u003cem\u003eGrand Inquisitor \u0026amp; Colonies\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eGrandissimo\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eKing \u0026amp; Intrigant\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eKing \u0026amp; Intrigant: Players' Edition\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eKing \u0026amp; Intrigant: Special Cards\u003c\/em\u003e as well as something currently known only as the \"Anniversary Extension\".\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hans im Glück","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":4013216001,"sku":"4013216001","price":72.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/9631\/products\/pic2391360.png?v=1578609023"},{"product_id":"absacker","title":"Absacker","description":"\u003ctable width=\"100%\" padding=\"1\" margin=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesigner\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv id=\"link18572\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.boardgamebliss.com\/collections\/leo-colovini\"\u003eLeo Colovini\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"link22109\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.boardgamebliss.com\/collections\/dario-de-toffoli\"\u003eDario de Toffoli\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\n\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.boardgamebliss.com\/collections\/all\/amigo-spiel\"\u003eAMIGO Spiel + Freizeit GmbH\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlayers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2-5\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlaytime\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e 20 mins\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuggested Age\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7 and up\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr id=\"bgg-row\" style=\"display: none;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd id=\"bgg-column-info\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdditional Info\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd id=\"bgg-column\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"bgg-url\" style=\"display: none;\"\u003e2843\/absacker\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"bgg-forum-url\" style=\"display: none;\"\u003ehttps:\/\/boardgamegeek.com\/forum\/29816\/absacker\/reviews\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote: This game is in German.  English rules can be found \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/boardgamegeek.com\/filepage\/1463\/dummydoc\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbsacker\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e, everyone's trying to grab as much as they can — but you need to close the deal to get the goods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo set up, deal the deck out to all players, with each player creating a personal draw deck, then drawing three cards for a hand.
