Perudo, also known as Liar's Dice, Bluff, or Dudo, is a classic South American dice game that combines elements of luck, skill, and bluffing. It's a game where players attempt to outwit each other through bold claims and challenges.

Condottiere is a strategic game set in 13th century Italy, a period marked by flourishing trade and frequent conflicts among city-states. The game revolves around the theme of mercenary leaders, known as Condottieri, who were hired to fight for different city-states.

Players find words in a fast-paced party game using a 5x5 plastic grid with category cards over columns and letter tiles along rows. Each marble placed corresponds to a category and a starting letter, prompting players to shout out words that match. The game includes teamwork and lively debates, especially over contentious category cards that can spark disagreements.

Players compete on a wobbly triangular board in a physics-based challenge. The game starts with the board level, but it shifts as players place variously sized stones on it. Circular pits on the board hold points that increase the further they are from the center, creating strategic opportunities for scoring.

Players represent crosses and circles using cubes in a game that superficially resembles Tic-Tac-Toe. Each cube has a circle on one side, a cross on another, and four blank sides. Players start by placing 25 cubes with blank sides on a 5×5 grid. During their turn, an active player picks a cube from the outer ring, turns it to show their symbol if needed, and slides it back into the grid. The game continues until a player forms an orthogonal or diagonal line of five cubes with their symbol, securing victory.

The game is played on a board consisting of 8 × 7 squares. Each player has 12 cylinders of different values, stacked like Russian dolls, starting with 6 hidden under the top layers. The objective is to bring 12 value points to the line before the opponent, using tactical moves to capture or free opponents' cylinders while keeping track of hidden pieces.
