Zoch showcases 2024 games slate

Zoch has showcased its latest line-up of new board games at Spielwarenmesse 2024.

Mein lieber Scholli ­– designed by Anna Oppolzer and Stefan Kloß – sees players waddle their penguins over floes of ice to eventually slip down an ice slide. The slide has two possible landings – into a pool of fish, or a hole in the ice. The player who collects the most fish on their travels is the winner.

Elsewhere, Gigi Gacker – designed by Robert Brouwer – is a card game where chickens have to feast on worms based on a strict pecking order, while Das Kleinhorn vom Riesenwald – designed by Emma and Benjamin Schwer – involves collecting mythical creatures and sorting different colours and figures.

Other titles in the range include the magical-themed Mirakel Mix from inventors Leo Colovini and Teodoro Mitidieri and the dice-rolling Rauf und Runter designed by Andreas Kuhnkath-Häbler.
