Kakuzu lets you take on other players on the same Sudoku grid. There is only one example of each number per line. per column and per square. At the start all the numbers are cleverly hidden with stones. Draw a number from the pouch to see which number you must find on the tray by removing one of the 81 stones. If you’re lucky, you can keep the stone and have another go. If you’re not, you give the stone to the next player and now it’s their turn to find the number. Try and collect the most stones by the end of the game. The key skills for Sudoku, logic, intuition and observation, are the ones needed to master Kakuzu!

Papayoo Papayoo

No jacks, queens or kings in this game. Just an unusual dice and a fifth suit called Payoo. The aim is to score the least number of points possible; try to avoid collecting those dreadful Payoos and especially the Papayoo. That confounded 7, whose suit changes with each new hand. That cursed dice! If you are unhappy with your hand, don't fret; just give your hand to the player on your left before starting. Be sure to make the right choice because you'll be getting the player's cards on your right. Then play your hand with no trumps or qualms. The best player doesn't always win!

Yamy Yamy

96 funny-looking cards: square-shaped, numbered from 1 to 6 and in four different suits. Each player has a hand of five cards and changes one card at each turn to try and get a card combination not yet on his score sheet: two pairs, three of a kind, four of a kind, a full house, a straight run, a flush, a series of 1's , a series of 2's, and so forth… Be discreet because if the other players find out what your object is, they may get in your way. As soon as another player puts down his cards, all you need to worry about is scoring as many points as possible even if it means sacrificing one of your goals. With the excitement of Yahtzee Yams, the tension of Rummy and the bluff of Poker all combined in one: there is no doubt about it, YAMY is bound to be a hit!
