Baba Yaga is the board game of Russian folklore and heroism. Extensively researched to be true to Russian folklore it is epic in scale, but simple and fun to play with an atmosphere of high adventure. With up to six players, two main play modes (cooperative or competitive), a solo play option and variant multiplayer rules, there is endless replayability.
During the game players take on the role of one of six heroic characters, adventuring in the wilds of a fantastical medieval Russia sculpted by the legends and folklore of the land. As you play the game, you are attempting to complete one of six heroic quests by traveling around the board and having encounters based on Russian myths while also dealing with Baba Yaga's perilous minions. As you have these encounters, you will gather items and allies that will help you by granting you advantages or bonuses to your statistics. You will also gain reputation as you adventure, but be careful, the great witch Baba Yaga doesn’t care for uppity heroes and soon you’ll be fighting her off as well as dealing with your individual quest.
In order to win in competitive play, you must either be the first to complete your quest, or have the most reputation when the game ends. In cooperative play, all of the players must complete their quests or manage to defeat Baba Yaga before time runs out.
From the publisher's website:
"As law students and lawyers already know, students preparing for the bar exam must learn an extensive amount of tedious material from standardized lectures and practice questions that are repetitive and monotonous. Passing the Bar will allow students to learn the graduate material required to pass the national state monitored bar exam in an enjoyable setting, and is also fun for students and trained professionals to test their skills."
You have 10 DAYS IN AFRICA™ – touring by plane, car, and on foot. Chart your course from start to finish using destination and transportation tiles. With a little luck and clever planning, you just might outwit your fellow travelers. The first traveler to make correct connections for a ten-day journey wins the game.
Tiles are arranged on a player's tray, then a new tile is drawn. It can be used to replace a tile on one of the "days." Then that tile or the drawn tile are discarded face-up to one of three discard piles. Tiles may not be rearranged, only replaced.
You must complete your journey correctly, connecting by
foot - bordering country tiles set side-by-side,
air - countries of the same color with a same-colored airplane between them, or
automobile - a car can drive between two countries and a third country which borders them.
Whoever is the first to connect all 10 days wins the game.
This is the second installment in the 10 Days in series.

Gameplay
All players pick tiles up one at a time, examining them and placing them onto any empty spot on their tile holders. Then, in turn, each player draws one tile and may replace one of their lined-up tiles with it. (Tiles may not be rearranged.) Tiles are drawn from one of three face-up discard piles or a face-down pile. The drawn card or replaced card is then discarded into one of the face-up piles. The first person to have all ten tiles satisfy the travel connection requirements wins.

By Foot If a country is next to or connected to another country on the map, their tiles may be placed side-by-side
By Air Any two countries of the same color may be connected by an airplane of that color (its tile in between them)
By Ship If a sea or ocean borders two countries, a ship can connect them
