FRED Distribution is your source for Eagle Games, Gryphon Games and other popular titles in the wide world of designer games. Designer games (sometimes called “Euro” games), are distinguishable from widely recognizable mass-marketed games like Monopoly, because they have characteristics that set them apart. They tend to require more strategic thinking; they often have a theme that sets them in a particular historical or event context; they have high quality art and components; and they rely less on luck than on the players' evolving skill at mastering the game.
