Harbour is a worker placement game where players move their worker from building to building, collecting and trading Fish, Livestock, Wood, and Stone; and cashing those resources in to purchase buildings (which are the worker placement spots) from the central pool. Once a building is purchased, it is replaced from the deck, and the central pool is a small subset of the deck, and is therefore different every game.
Lazio is the fifth game in the Crime Scene family. It follows the same puzzle solving format as its predecessors. This game is set in a medieval monastery, where recent events have frightened away most of the monks. The story is written by the awarded author Arttu Tuominen. In the puzzles you get to investigate a broken down cart with strange wheels, a night sky with shooting starts, a pot where man has been boiled, and many other things. The high age recommendation comes from a few graphic details in the story. These can be skipped by parents playing with their children (12+), as long as they are aware such exist in the game. Challenge Level 3/5
In Reiner Knizia's High Society, players bid against each other to acquire the various trappings of wealth (positive-number and multiplier cards) while avoiding its pitfalls (negative number and divisor cards). While bidding, though, keep an eye on your remaining cash - at the end of the game, even though all those positive-number cards might add up to a win, the player with the least money isn't even considered for victory.
