SMALL WORLD HISTORY
The Small World franchise was originally published in March 2009, by popular publisher Days of Wonder.

The game is an updated and re-imagined version of Keyaert's Vinci game, which was launched in 1999.

In 2010 the original game picked up the Games Magazine Game of the Year Awards, as well as the Golden Ace Jury Prize. It was also the Meeples' Choice Award winner in 2009.

DAYS OF WONDER GAME DESCRIPTION
In Small World, players vie for conquest and control of a world that is simply too small to accommodate them all.
Picking the right combination from the 14 different fantasy races and 20 unique special powers, players rush to expand their empires - often at the expense of weaker neighbours. Yet they must also know when to push their own over-extended civilisation into decline and ride a new one to victory!
On each turn, you either use the multiple tiles of your chosen race (type of creatures) to occupy adjacent (normally) territories - possibly defeating weaker enemy races along the way, or you give up on your race letting it go "into decline". A race in decline is designated by flipping the tiles over to their black-and-white side.
At the end of your turn, you score one point (coin) for each territory your races occupy. You may have one active race and one race in decline on the board at the same time. Your occupation total can vary depend on the special abilities of your race and the territories they occupy. After the final round, the player with the most coins wins.
