Players take turns in clockwise order and perform one of the two actions:
(1) ask any one player if he/she sees any specific color OR letter in everyone's left OR right hands;
(2) claim one UPUP card's identity (both color and letter must be correctly identified)
The first player to identify his/her two cards in hand wins the game!

Short description:
Who is the Sunflower? is a microgame where two secret teams face off, trying to discover each other's identity. Each player gets an identity card. Some characters need to identify certain other character (e.g. Student wants to find Sunflower), while others need to be identified by certain character (Banana wants to be found by the Student). After some discussion, players that need to find another character can attempt to guess who that character is. If this fulfills any player's victory condition, the round ends, with those players scoring a point each.

Players: 1
Time: variable
Age: 4+
Deduction

Retail price: €4
Spiel special: €3 (a gift to those who buy €35+ in TBD booth. Limited amount)

Short description:
Flip 9 is a solitaire game in which the player tries to arrange the Train card in numeric order (1-9).
Shuffle and place all 9 Train cards in a row with the same side up. The player swaps any two Train cards, and add the numbers of the swapped cards together. The resulting number indicates which card you MUST swap next time (e.g., after swapping 2 and 3, and the card you MUST swap is 5). If the summation exceeds 9, then add the two digits to get to result. (12 -> 1+2=3)
Repeat the swapping action until you successfully rearrange the Train cards into a strictly ascending sequence (1-9 from right to left).

6. Board Game: Blood of the Werewolf [Average Rating:5.27 Overall Rank:18553]

Chien-Tsun Chen

(smoox)

Taiwan
Taipei

Thanks for your PRE-ORDER!
Due to the limited supply, we're sorry that pre-order for Blood of the Werewolf is now CLOSED.

Designer: Chih-Fan Chen
Players: 4-9
Time: 10 min
Age: 10+
Bluffing / Deduction / Partnership

Retail price: €9
Spiel special: €7

Short description:
Blood of the Werewolf is a different type of Werewolf game as at the start of play, you don't know your own identity but others do. Thus, you need to observe the actions of others to figure out who you are. Another difference from traditional Werewolf games is that it requires no moderator and if your character dies, you can still participate in the discussion — and possibly even win!

In the game, players are divided into two camps: Manlike and Werewolf. During the game, players accuse one another through passing the confidential markers, which could send others to death through family trial. When the number of surviving players drops to a predetermined threshold based on the number of players, the camp with more survivors wins.

(smoox)

Taiwan

Thanks for your PRE-ORDER!
Due to the limited supply, we're sorry that pre-order for Jungle Rumble is now CLOSED.

Designer: Nightsorrow Chou, Eros Lin, Zeldaaa Ling
Players: 2-4
Time: 30 min
Age: 10+
Strategy / Gateway game

Retail price: €22
Spiel special: €20

Short description:
In Jungle Rumble, you're in charge of a herd of cats — yes, cats — and those cats must do your bidding in order to mine gold, build plantations, water your farm, and recruit more helpful kittens.

On a turn, a player chooses one of the five available action tiles, placing as many of her cats on it as she wants, with more cats leading to a stronger action. Each other player in turn can take the same action, but only at a strength of one cat. After each player has a chance to choose an action tile, the unchosen tiles are sweetened with one food token, and the start player marker rotates, then the next round starts.

Players need to grow their herd of cats in order to take additional actions, but you must also feed your cats or they will wander off into the forest. At the end of the game, players score for their feline herd, waterway supplying their fields, remaining food and gold. Whoever has the most points becomes the champion of this vivid forest!

Short description:
Each round in Dungeon Guilds, a new dungeon is created with face-down room cards equal to the number of players. The rooms are initially sorted by the threat level of the room, with Lv 1 rooms on top and Lv 3 on the bottom. Players take turns placing their adventurers in any dungeon room with a free space, by paying a fee, they can steal a space from other players. They keep placing until everyone has placed two adventurers, and each room has exactly two adventurers placed on it.
Players then reveal the rooms starting from the top of the dungeon and check whether the players can defeat the monsters in that room. If they succeed, then the owners of those adventurers split the money in that room evenly; if not, then excursions to the current room and all rooms below it are consider failed, and players must pay a healing cost for all adventurers.
After exploring a fixed number of dungeons, the player with the most money wins the game.

19. Board Game: Office 21 [Average Rating:6.08 Overall Rank:10011]

Taiwan

Designer: Guan Chih Huang
Players：2-5
Time：15 min
Age: 8+
Hand Management / Set Collection

Price: €10 (actual price is subject to change)

Short description:
In Office 21, players take the role of CEO and try to maximize their profits without going over the governmental set limit of 21K.
To win, players must figure out how best to play different characters and their special abilities. Players start with three character cards in hand. On a player's turn, she draws back to three cards in hand, then must play one card without exceeding the 21K limit after activating the power of that character; if she can't play a card without busting 21, she's out of the game.

When a player reaches 21K, all other players have one final turn to stop her — but if her profit still remains at 21K, she wins. If no more cards remain in the draw deck, whoever has the highest profit total in their play zone and is still in the game wins. There's also a chance that the player with the lowest profit wins.

21. Board Game: Bluff in Zoo [Average Rating:6.33 Overall Rank:9455]

Chien-Tsun Chen

(smoox)

Taiwan
Taipei

Designer: Bono Light
Players: 2-6
Time: 20 min
Age: 8+
Bluffing

Price: €10 (actual price is subject to change)

Short description:
In Bluff im Zoo, the players are returning from the zoo and talking about who's seen the biggest and most animals — but not everyone is telling the truth. On a turn, a player can do one of the following:
Play a card face down on a pile in the middle of all players and claim to have seen a certain number of one of five kinds of animal; this number must be either higher than any previously claimed number or the same number of a larger animal.
Not play a card and make a claim.
Doubt the previous player's claim.
When a player doubts an opponent, all cards are revealed. If there are at least the number of animals that the previous player claimed, the doubter takes all the cards (which are worth negative points); if not, the person who made the claim collects them. But beware as the deck contains special cards — e.g., jokers that count as any animal and cards that reduce the number of animals seen — so no one can ever be sure which animals await.
The first player to collect thirty cards loses and ends the game, then the player with the fewest cards wins.

Short description:
In Dice's Zoo players compete to be the first to play out all twelve of their dice. On each side of each die is one kind of animal, some small and some large. When you play dice, you need to either play a bigger animal than the player before you or you can play the same animal but in a higher number. Whenever you play an animal, you may use that animal's special ability, for example, to hinder your opponent or to help you get rid of your dice faster.
