Let's play Rheinlander/Karakorum/Ra The Dice Game @ Milpitas!

Let's play some newer games by Dr. Reiner Knizia - the greatest board game designer alive!

Rheinländer is a classic Reiner Knizia area-control game where dukes compete to carve up the Rhine into profitable duchies. Place your pieces strategically, expand your influence, and seize control of territories from your rivals through shifting majorities and opportunistic takeovers.

Ra: The Dice Game is a clever Reiner Knizia dice game that packs surprisingly meaty decisions into a compact package. Roll and reroll dice to collect pharaohs, build monuments, gather civilizations, and secure valuable stretches of the Nile, balancing immediate points against rewards that pay off at the end.

Karakorum is a brisk Reiner Knizia push-your-luck game about racing up three mountain peaks. Players advance climbers along different routes, weighing how far to push their luck against when to stop and secure their progress.

Knowing how to play these games is not a prerequisite - while some familiarity with modern board games will help, I will always offer to teach each game before we begin playing.
