In reply to Kuiper.

Hello Kuiper!

I apologize for the tease. Here are some of the games I recall ordering from Japan (basically Amazon Japan):
– Odd Socks
– Cat Blues (Katzenjammer Blues)
– Members Only (soon releasing in the US as Classic Art)
– Rumble Nation (not a Knizia, but a great one nonetheless)
– Botswana (the new Japanese edition is gorgeous)
– Circus Flohcati
– Weiner Walzer

Other great options:
– Stephenson’s Rocket
– Winner’s Circle

One great source to learn about more international Knizias (and how to acquire them) is the Reiner Knizia Enthusiasts Discord! You can join the community here: https://discord.gg/FH2F25hvWA

You describe Odd Socks as “the first of five Knizia Games…giddily ordered from the other side of the world,” what are the others? I wouldn’t mind a “round-up” post of the various Knizia titles you’ve imported from various countries, as it would really help me out when planning my own international orders. (I’ve become a bit of a collector, in some cases buying new versions of Knizia titles I already own because I’ve found international versions with artwork or components that I like more, such as the gorgeous retheme of Circus Flohcati by New Games Order, or the Japanese version of Battle Line/Schotten Totten which was released as “Knights Poker” with wooden pieces replacing the cards).
