Item Description
Niagara is a German-style board game played on a hinged board designed to sit atop the game box and represent Niagara Falls as a flap hanging over the box edge. The river is represented using clear plastic discs in a grooved surface, allowing board spaces to move downstream toward the waterfall.
Players collect gems along a river. Players move canoes to transport the gems, and can steal gems from other players' canoes. They may also influence the speed with which the board spaces move downstream. The first player to acquire four gems of one color, or one of each of the five colors, or seven gems of any color, is the winner. Although the game box states that gems closer to the waterfall are of higher value, the game treats all colors equally.
