News from Compendia Traditional Games, April 2005  

In this month’s newsletter

- ‘Set’ now in stock
- New Murder Mystery Party Games
- New Go book
- ‘Tell a friend’ added to website
- A bit of spring cleaning

There are only a few games that we’ve been trying to get hold of for literally years so we’re very pleased to announce that Set is now available. You have to identify the 'sets' of cards. Each card is unique in its four features:
- colour; red, purple or green
- symbol; diamond, squiggle or oval
- shading; solid, striped or open
- number; one, two or three symbols
A 'set' is three cards on which each feature is either the same on all of the cards or different on all the cards. The small size and carrying case make it convenient for taking on holiday.

New murder mysteries have arrived, Operation Murder is a new game for fourteen players, while the other three new titles; Murder in the Thirties, Murder in the Office and Murder in Transylvania contain DVD’s with scenes that shed light on the murder.

Learn to Play Go Vol V, the Palace of Memories is now in stock, the book includes;
- Templates for fighting in any situation
- Guidelines for correct shape
- Opening theory made simple
- Test yourself sections

A ‘tell a friend’ form has now been added to the website to make it easier to pass on information about games your friends and family might be interested to try out. You can also use the form to send yourself an email if there are games you want to keep track of.

Both the dinner and party games and the family board games sections have had a little spruce up over the last couple of weeks. You’ll find more detail in the product descriptions and some shiny new pictures. If there’s anything at all you would like to know about any game on the website then please do mail and ask, it’s so helpful for us to know what kind of information you would like to see.
