In Zoomino, you want to frame as many animals as possible to display them in your zoo.
To set up, take eight frames in a single color, shuffle the dominoes face down on the table, then give each player two dominoes.
Each turn, each player places one domino in their play area and another face down in front of the player to their left. They then draw a domino from the table to have two in hand again.
You must place dominoes in your area horizontally and adjacent to other tiles to form at least one animal. If you create a real animal, frame it! If both backgrounds on the tile match the player color, use the solid side of the frame, which is worth 2 points; otherwise, use the multi-colored side worth 1 point.
When the draw pile is empty or someone has placed their eighth frame, the game ends. Players tally their points to see who wins, with a tie being broken in favor of the player with the most imaginary animals on a background of their color.

In Looot, you need to gather resources and capture buildings to develop your fjord. Fill your longships and complete your construction sites in order to rack up your victory points. Store up the most riches, and you’ll be crowned Jarl of the Vikings!
Setup:
Assemble the gameboard using Landscape boards, placing 2 Houses, 2 Watchtowers, and 3 Castles in their corresponding spaces.
Place the Trophy board and 5 Trophies along one edge of the gameboard.
Place the Ocean board along one edge and put 30 Longships into a bag, drawing out 5 and placing them on Ocean spaces.
Create a reserve for Resources (Axes, Wood, Sheep, and Gold).
Each player selects a color and takes components: 1 Fjord, 13 Vikings, and 3 Shields.
Shuffle and distribute random Construction Site tiles (Ports, Altars, Jarl Palaces) to each player.
The player who lives furthest north goes first.
How to Play:
Placing a Viking (mandatory):
Vikings must be placed adjacent to another Viking or a Longship.
Vikings cannot be placed on a Resource space already occupied by another Viking.
Take a corresponding Resource tile from the reserve and place it on an empty space on your Fjord.
Check for capturing a Building; play passes to the next player if out of Vikings.
Capturing a Building (conditional):
Different rules for capturing Houses, Watchtowers, and Castles.
Buildings:
Houses: Capture by placing a Viking adjacent to a House.
Watchtowers: Capture by connecting two Watchtowers with Vikings of your color.
Castles: Capture by chaining at least 4, 8, or 12 Vikings of your color, with at least one adjacent to a Castle.
Longships:
Selecting a Longship (optional): Place on an empty space on your Fjord and draw another Longship for the Ocean board.
Filling Longships: Fill with indicated Resources to earn bonuses; unfilled Longships lose 5 victory points at the end.
Using a Shield (optional):
Use when placing a Viking for a specific advantage; flip the Shield after use.
Construction Sites:
Three types in your Fjord; complete by placing required Resources and Buildings adjacent to them.
Completed Construction Sites earn victory points.
Claiming a Trophy (optional):
At the end of your turn, claim a Trophy if you have enough Axes.
Place the Trophy on your Fjord with the victory points side visible.
Game End:
After all players have placed their Vikings, calculate victory points.
Add points for Castles, Watchtowers, Houses, Gold, Sheep, Wood, completed Construction Sites, and claimed Trophies.
Subtract 5 points for each unfilled Longship.
Player with the most points becomes the next Jarl; ties broken by highest value Trophy or shared victory if no tiebreaker.

In Slide, you need to arrange the numbered cards, aiming to score as few points as possible. But watch out, you’ll need to keep an eye on your opponents and be one step ahead to win the game!
Setup: Shuffle and deal 16 cards,face down, to each player.
Arrange your cards into a 4 by 4 square. This is your grid.
Return any remaining cards to the box.
Decide who will play first and give them the First Player token.
Playing the game: Slide is played over 16 rounds. The game ends when all cards have been revealed and played.
Each round, players choose any face-down card from their grid and turns it face-up, in the middle of the table, at the same time.
Starting with the first player and continuing clockwise, each player chooses one of the cards from the middle of the table and places it in their grid.
To place a card in your grid, push (slide) the card into a row or column to fillan empty space and rebuild the 4 by 4 grid. You cannot slide cards diagonally.
You cannot place a card directly into an empty slot.
The First Player counter passes to the player on the left and a new round begins.
When every card has been turned over, count up the scores.
End of the game: All orthogonally adjacent cards with the same number cancel each other out and are removed from the game.
Each player counts up the values of the remaining cards in their grid. The player
with the lowest score wins the game.
In case of a tie, the tied players count up the number of cards remaining in their grid. The player with the fewest cards in their grid wins. If the game is still tied,
those players share the victory.

Katamino Family – is a junior version of Katamino, with two players competing on separate game boards (or possibly one game board divided into smaller spaces) to fill all of the empty spaces first. The game is played over a number of rounds, with each round becoming progressively harder.
Katamino Duo also works as a solitaire puzzle, with the solver trying to fit the pieces onto the playing area in different ways.

The abstract strategy game Quoridor is surprisingly deep for its simple rules. The object of the game is to advance your pawn to the opposite edge of the board. On your turn you may either move your pawn or place a wall. You may hinder your opponent with wall placement, but not completely block him off. Meanwhile, he is trying to do the same to you. The first pawn to reach the opposite side wins.
