Heimlich & Co.
The game board in Heimlich & Co. is an oval movement track, with points allocated to the various spaces. Seven differently colored "spies" are placed on the board. On a player's turn, they roll a die, then move any combination of characters forward that number of spaces. The newly-moved spies then score points based on their new location. However, the trick here is that each player's color isn't known until the end of the game, so players are encouraged to deduce which color belongs to whom.

What the community says about Heimlich & Co.
Interesting concept of roll&move hidden caracters (similar to Royal Turf). Quite simple to play, but not so easy to make good movements, since you don't control your character (at least, not only you)

Juego para grupos de cierto tamaño (me lo dió a conocer Gixmo en el CiberChigre de Gijón en Feb 2010 y eramos 8 jugadores). Se trata de un juego de deducción y despiste.. puesto que todos los jugadores pueden manejar todas las fichas y repatir los puntos de movimiento como crea conveniente.. Cuando se cae en la casilla ocupada por una especie de ataud, se procede a la puntuación y cada ficha puntúa según donde se encuentre en ese momento. No se averigua quién es quién, hasta que alguno llega al final (40 puntos). Reglas muy, muy sencillas y facil de explicar y jugar para cualquiera. Ideal p

Me parece un filler un poco sosote y viejuno. Pero vamos, para una partida rápida, se puede jugar.
Sencillo. Tiene su cosa. Original. Nos ha gustado.
