Manipulate the magic book and collect the most valuable dragons! Even dragons start small. Before they can fly and breathe fire, they must be properly cared for. As an experienced magician, that is exactly your job. To do this, you use the "magic book", which tells you which and how many dragons you can take under your wing. It goes without saying that you have some tricks up your sleeve to manipulate the book to your advantage. Whoever does this best wins this fantastic competition! Do you like short games, value beautiful artwork and don't like waiting for your turn? Then you place this deck of cards on the table. A turn is very simple and you can also do things during other players' turns, so you are constantly involved in the game. Because the cards are distributed differently each game, you can never follow fixed tactics and you have to be flexible. Due to its simplicity, Dragon Shepherds is suitable for families with children, but there is enough challenge to also interest more experienced players. In Dragon Herders you try to score points by placing dragons from your hand. On your turn you first draw 1, 2 or 3 cards from the supply. This offer is continuously supplemented with cards from the magical book. That is important, because after drawing cards, the backs of the 2 cards of the magic book determine how many and which cards you can lay down and what you get for them. It is your turn, before laying down cards you may change the magic book using one of your cards. After laying down and receiving your bonuses, all other players may also lay down cards based on the magic book, but they may not change the magic book. For putting down dragons you can mainly earn amulet parts, golden eggs and shields, which give points in different ways. The game ends when a certain number of amulets have been completed. If you then have the most points, you win and you are the best dragon herder!

You have big plans. Your city will be the most beautiful, largest and most magical city ever! But you are not the only one with ambitions. Intrigues run rampant and none of your opponents can really be trusted. That's why you bring in characters such as the King, the Murderess or the Merchant. Each turn, one of the characters will work for you and perform special actions. But who chooses which characters? And how do you outsmart everyone? In Machiavelli you have to build buildings by paying with coins. The more expensive the building, the more points it will earn at the end of the game. To help you, you can choose from different characters at the start of a round. For example, the King always lets you choose a character first, the Murderess eliminates other characters and the Merchant ensures that you get extra money. After each round, the characters are redistributed, so that another player can become King, for example. Machiavelli has been a popular game for years thanks to the strong interaction between players. Anyone who intelligently estimates who chooses which characters can manipulate the entire game. Although you only use eight characters per game, this edition contains no fewer than 27 different characters. So you can vary widely! NB: This new edition of Machiavelli is a new version of Machiavelli De luxe, with the same number of character cards and extras. The Games Friends: “ Machiavelli was one of the first card games we played and it still appears regularly on the table. Because the choice of characters is secret, it is exciting every round which characters participate. Highly recommended for players who like bluffing and deceit!"

Finally, the true blue tipper gives the right answer, but pretends it is the wrong one. Each round a different player is the guesser. He draws a card. There is a question on the front, which he reads out loud. The other players see the correct answer on the back. Every other player now draws a face-down fish. One of them is the real blue tipper, while all the others are the red herrings. These players now have a short period of time to think of their answer. Red herrings must give the wrong answer and the true blue tipper must give the correct answer. The aim of the guesser is to pick out the red herrings one by one and finally identify the true blue tipper. The red herrings score points if they are not identified before the true blue tipper is identified. The true blue tipper scores points if he is not selected last.
