Real-time

Geistesblitz Würfelblitz is a witty flash of inspiration for dice-loving lightning enthusiasts.
The die is cast. The players can tell in a flash whether there is a figure that is seen particularly frequently - or articularly rarely - on the dice. Following their colour, the fastest observers get to the only die that tells which of the five objects is to be snatched from the centre of the table. If all the dice show different results, Ghost Balduin personally reveals which object is currently being sought.

Deal 5 letters to each player and reveal a theme. Think of words that fit the theme and begin with your letters. Players sling their cards, saying their words. After three words, a new theme is revealed. The first to put down 5 letters wins the round!

Who will be the fastest slinger of them all?

A Game of Cat & Mouth is a two-player game in which players use a magnetic cat's paw to shoot balls at one another.

In more detail, to set up, you lay the box open on the table, place the "cat head" dividing screen upright in the center of the board, place the black "nose" ball in the center of the cat's face, set the three white "teeth" balls in the cat's mouth, divide the eight yellow balls between the two players, and lock the magnetic cat's paw into place on each side of the game board.

In a round, you use your cat's paw to shoot balls through the cat's mouth at your opponent, or you aim for the nose and teeth to knock them out. As soon as all the balls of one color — the one black ball, the three white balls, or the eight yellow balls — are on one side of the board, the round ends and the other player scores a point. Reset the board, and start shooting at one another once again!

In this game, your useless knowledge will win you useful points.

Think fast, not hard in this merciless word-shouting board game. Start by drawing a category card. Your team will then shout words from that category that begin with the letter on the race track. Move along the track every time you get a word right and race against your opponents to win. This is a simple game for versatile occasions. Play it as a two-player game for a casual night-in or bring it along as a party game for big groups.

There's been a spectacular prison break, and three well-known criminals from previous The Key cases are on the run again! How could that happen?

The Key: Escape from Strongwall Prison is the trickiest case of The Key series because more than just instinct is required here. You have to combine all types of hints and clues to determine escape types, laundry carts, hiding places, and gang affiliations. The right numerical code or key puts the three dangerous gang bosses back behind bars. Attention: It is not necessarily the fastest who wins here, but the most efficient investigator genius!
