That is Diego Drachenzahn, a super fun game where our protagonist dragon keeps missing his targets and causing chaos, like setting fire to poor Uncle Drooge's hat. If you are looking for something light, fast, and involving just the right amount of physical skill, this title is an excellent choice for playing with friends or kids. The dynamic is very straightforward: each player chooses an 'alley' (a target) they intend to hit. The dexterity challenge kicks in when you have to roll three fireballs into the correct slot. But don't think it's just about hitting the target! The game adds a special spice of bluffing: the other players must try to guess what your target was. If they guess correctly, they score. If you are successful in your throw, you also secure your points. It is a frantic and funny race to see who can be the most accurate dragon (or the best deceiver) in the competition. The big charm of Diego Drachenzahn is how it uses the game box itself as part of the arena. This gives it a very cool tactile feel and makes setup extremely fast. Matches are lightning-quick, lasting about 15 minutes, which makes it perfect for those moments when you want a 'filler' to warm up or end your game night without needing to wrap your head around complex rules. It is a game that doesn't take itself too seriously and guarantees good laughs, especially when someone rolls the ball with total confidence and it ends up anywhere but where it should. If you enjoy dexterity games with a pinch of social psychology, this clumsy dragon will win over your table. ## FAQ ### How long does a game take?
