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 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 Katamino Delux Katamino Pocket |
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.

Reimplemented By | Quoridor Kid |
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.

The game consists of 12 different pieces constructed of right angled blocks so each piece is made of 5 "squares". (Think Tetris pieces, but 5 squares instead of 4.)
An old version of the game had only 10 pieces; the completely straight 5 square and the 5 square "plus sign" were not included. Both versions also have a bunch of "filler" pieces of 1 or 2 squares.
The gameboard is constructed with a movable divider so one can take sets of 4 up to the whole set of 12 pieces and form them into a 5 block by X rectangle. (Where X = the number of wood blocks in your set.)
The two or three player strategy game is accomplished on a square board divided into 64 smaller squares. Players take turns to place a piece on the gameboard. The first player who cannot place a piece anymore loses. (Similar to Blokus)
The two player puzzle game mode is accomplished by dividing the board into two sections, each player chooses five blocks and are also given 4 small "filler" blocks of 1 and 2 squares. The first one to fit all their blocks perfectly into their half of the rectangle board, wins.
