	Rio Grande Games - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Rio Grande Games is a publisher of German-style board games in English.
		Rio Grande's approach is to publish the English-language version of the game simultaneously with the German production.
		Game components are typically language-independent, with only the rules and the box requiring localization.

	Dragonland - Rio Grande Games
		Part of the game setup includes constructing the "Tower of Destiny." The Tower of Destiny is a cardboard tower that has 2 slats (oh, sorry - "Destiny Slides") inside of it, set on a decline.
		The object of the game is to collect a variety of gems and dragon eggs.
		It is a nice break from the more strategy-intensive games that Rio Grande usually puts out, and that in itself makes the game more viable for the younger and/or less experienced gamers out there.

		The game is set in late pre-history, a time of transition - when our distant ancestors, who had struggled and barely survived for ages in very small nomadic groups, began to feel their lives would be more secure and less arduous if they formed larger groups.
		During the game, players develop their haciendas, increase their herds and land holdings, open new markets, and worry about water supplies and harvests, while keeping a watchful eye on their competitors.
		In the game of Palazzo, set in the age of the late renaissance, the players slip on the roles of wealthy landowners, who compete against each other to build the most valuable palaces.

	Puerto Rico - Rio Grande Games
		Well, the games are very different, though some of the ideas in the game design may seem similar.
		The game setup takes some time as there are plenty of pieces to sort out but with all players chipping in this can be accomplished in no time at all.
		Puerto Rico is an excellent addition to the Rio Grande stable of games - one that will probably go down in gaming history as one of their best.

		Caesar and Cleopatra is a card game which simulates two rivals competing for the support of the Patricians of Rome.

		It seems like most games these days are designed optimally for three or four players, and trying to play them with two people just loses some of the more complex game-play.
		Rio Grande has solved this by putting out a set of games specifically for two players.
		Game play is relatively quick, we find, and thus this is a good game to play when you just want to play something at lunch time before you go back to work.

		I have been playing this game off and on for four years now - and it, too, was one of the earlier games I "discovered" as an adult.
		The production values are very high - the pieces are well made and the game, given it is a board game and hence made of sturdy cardboard with wooden game pieces, is quite durable.
		It was one of the first games I acquired after discovering board games again as an adult.
