OK, I can make this list (http://www.boardgamegeek.com/geeklist/13273) in to a contest of course! Rules are simple:

1. Add a game of which the BGG-title is in a language not already presented in this Geeklist.
2. NO alternate names, the name of the game as listed on BGG is the language. Example: I Coloni di Katan does not count; it's listed as Settlers of Catan.
3. Existing languages only; please provide a translation if you can. No names. So no ZERTZ, no Caylus.
4. Titles that can mean something in different languages don't count. Only the original intended title counts.
5. No dialect.
6. The entry that remains the last entry for more than 48 hours gets 5 GG.
7. I can add rules if I forget one (I will, most likely).

Please provide translations of the titles if you can.

I'll start with a few easy ones.

Aaargh! :shake:

Well, that's the problem with this list; it might look very very stupid in a few years.

Although it does show my translation was correct. :what:
