Oddly, despite our long, long winters, our snow is generally not suitable for snowman-building (it's too cold and dry so it won't stick together). We can,however, always build a snowman with this fun parcheesi-like Schneeman game though!

10 Days in... So exactly where is Croatia? Bhutan? Angola? Nebraska? You will finally know the answer to all that and more after playing the following four games. When I first saw these, I thought they were just more dull geography games destined to wither away, collecting dust on the shelf. Turns out, they are actually fun! While geography certainly is a key component, really they are all about strategy. Basically, you have 10 days to travel across the continent by jet, car, and on foot. You must build a logical, sequential itinerary and outwit your fellow travelers

Players take turns trying to keep all their pieces inside the board. Both visual and planning skills are put into play as irregular-shaped pieces are dropped into a slot. If the piece catches on another one and sticks out above the board's edge, the player loses the game.

"Eurogames" are a style of board games with fascinating, usually historical themes. In general, they are very social family-style board games (as opposed to a game such as chess that requires more introspective and abstract thought), but they do require more strategy than a typical party game (such as a trivia or drawing game). The game rules take a bit longer to learn than basic strategy games (like mancala or the wooden games shown above), but they are not overwhelmingly complicated. Players are not eliminated during play and the game stays competitve through the end. The best part about Eurogame are the evocative themes and story lines--players feel like they really are compteting for scarce Stone Age resources or building new colonies in Puerto Rico. These games are best for ages 8-adult.
Amun Re
Set in ancient Egypt, this game allows players to try to outdo each other in building pyramids and growing crops, but you must watch out for floods and droughts along the Nile.

Dominion
You want a bigger and more pleasant kingdom, with more rivers and a wider variety of trees. You want a Dominion! In all directions lie fiefs, freeholds, and feodums. All are small bits of land, controlled by petty lords and verging on anarchy. You will bring civilization to these people, uniting them under your banner. But wait! It must be something in the air; several other monarchs have had the exact same idea. You must race to get as much of the unclaimed land as possible, fending them off along the way.

Dominion Seaside
All you ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by--and perhaps, someone who knows how to steer ships using stars. These are dangerous, pirate-infested waters, and you cautiously send rat-infested ships across them, to establish lucrative trade at far off merchant-infested ports. First, you will take over some islands, as a foothold. The natives seem friendly enough, crying their peace cries, and giving you spears and poison darts before you are even close enough to accept them properly. When you finally reach those ports you will conquer them, and from there you will look for more rivers. One day, all the rivers will be yours!
