Niagara won the prestigious Spiel des Jahres Game of the Year award for 2005! In
the wild rapids of the Niagara River, fearless canoers battle the water and each
other to collect gems along the riverbank. Of course, the most valuable gems are
found furthest down-river, close to the waterfall. Yes, there is a waterfall,
and careless canoers can fall over the waterfall. Also, players must return
collected gems to land in order to be counted. At the end, the player who
collects the most value in gems is the winner. Players play on a 3D board,
representing the Niagara River and the falls. Canoes float down the river as the
river flows, but players can row their canoes up-river or down-river to collect
gems, to return them to shore, and to avoid the waterfall. This game is great
fun for the family, but is strategic and gives players the chance to plan and
steal from one another. This family board game is for 3-5 players and takes
about 60 minutes to play.
