A legendary Major League Baseball game is so renowned that it is displayed in the National Baseball Hall of Fame. Players assume the role of a team's manager or general manager, controlling strategies like batting order and pitching choices. The game includes a card and dice version, alongside a computerized version that generates player and team statistics.

Players can experience 3500 years of history with OH-WAH-REE, now available in a special edition tailored for modern tastes. This Mancala game accommodates up to four players and includes unique rules, making it engaging for both children and adults. The game features a contoured folding board, smooth stone pebbles, markers, and a neatly designed instruction booklet, all housed in a compact case.

Players engage in an abstract two-player game that focuses on creating connections, similar to Hex. Each player uses pegs and links to build a continuous path across a 24x24 board, connecting their respective sides while preventing their opponent from doing the same. The game includes strategic elements, such as the ability to swap sides after the first move, which helps balance the advantage of going first.

Players aim to locate and sink the Bismarck through three game levels. Advanced gameplay involves miniature combat rules and hidden movement using separate search boards. The game ends when the Bismarck is sunk, arrives in strategic ports after a patrol, a point threshold favors the German player, or time runs out.
