8 new board games from LEGO coming in 2010

In 2009 LEGO launched its game line in Europe with ten titles – games that are expected to be released in North America sometime in 2010 – and in March 2010 the company will release four new titles in Europe, with four additional titles to follow later in the year. Those games are:
• Shave a Sheep – This awesomely-titled game lets players do exactly what the title says, but you’re relying on the roll of the die to let you shear without fear as a wolf awaits for a taste of lamb chops. (2-4 players, ages 5+, 10-15 minutes, €10)



• UFO Attack – The UFO is attacking your mountainous moonbase. Try to collect as many resources as you can and hotfoot it back to Earth. (2-4 players, ages 6+, 10-15 minutes, €13)

• Magma Monster – Escape the eponymous monster by building bridges over a pool of lava and grabbing the treasure as quickly as you can. (2-4 players, ages 7+, 10-20 minutes, €13)



• Pirate Plank – Try not to be the pirate forced off the plank into shark-infested waters. Be the last pirate standing to win! (2-4 players, ages 7+, 10-20 minutes, €13)



• Atlantis – Scheduled for August 2010 with a price of €25, this game ties into the Atlantis theme featured in LEGO’s regular line of building products.
• Hogwart’s Challenge – Also scheduled for August 2010 and retailing for €25 is this Harry Potter tie-in.

• Two other titles not yet revealed.
