Go to Post Sorry, during my fluid mechanics lectures on drag I must have been designing a gearbox in my mind. FRC season will do that. - sanddrag [more]

Game last approximately 40 minutes to 1 hour. Very fun from 2-5 players.
Not quite as strategic as Settlers, but pretty entertaining is Polarity. Basically, you've got to use magnetic fields to lean magnets against other magnets, and as the board starts to fill up you start getting unintended consequences as the fields begin to interact. It's great to play with a lot of people, it has suspense kind of like Jenga. (It's also fun to just play with the magnets)

Here's a video of it on youtube, it is kind of hard to explain without a board.
