This list is meant to collect games created in Sweden. I'm sure that there are many more to add that I haven't been able to dredge up from the BGG database yet, or that I have simply forgot about.

This "game" is hugely underrated. Don't hesitate buying this if you get the chance to. It's very very language dependant, but I have rarely seen a simple card game be so hilariously fun.
In terms of "winners" and "losers" it's not even a game - the rules state that the winner is the one who had most fun. It's more a toy you play with in terms of cards.

A farming game. It's about as much fun as watching grass grow, although when I was a kid I played it a lot (and now *my* kids play it).

This is actually a new edition of an older game called "Bondespelet" that I have never seen.

I played the old version of this game this weekend, so it does indeed exist. It's called "Bondespelet" and the map and cards are a bit different; even a bit more complicated mechanics. I think the old map is actually a bit nicer. Anyway, we played it when drunk and we had a good laugh at the silly texts on the cards. Halfway we got bored and ended it.

This is an absolutely hilariously awful game. It's about buying and selling stocks, and the game designers thought that the best mechanic to do that was to have a booklet full of real-world statistical data on a bunch of companies. You buy stocks at the prices on the first page of the booklet, and then there's a random element that decides what page to look at when you want to sell stocks. Players realize pretty quickly that some stocks are just way better than others, and it all comes down to buying those stocks and just blindly hoping for the best; since there's no way at all at influencing the prices of those stocks or what page to look at when it's your turn to eventually sell stocks.

So it uses one of the most stupidly complex and convoluted mechanisms possible, to create a gaming experience without the tiniest resemblance to strategy or replayability. Oh, I'm gonna rate this the lowest score possible. This is the only boardgame available in hell. And you have to play it over and over and over for all eternity.

The Game of Stalinist Survival

You try and make sure that your comrades are the ones closest to Stalin (AKA 'Koba') when the Great Purge ends. The catch is that game length is random and the closer you are to Stalin the greater the risk of being purged. Quick and full of (dark) humour.

A game for 2 players where you both keep a map of the island you're stranded at, and try to deduct where you've landed, and at the same time being the "game master" for your opponent. The first guy who digs up the treasure has won.

The 3e edition of Drakborgen. It exists only in English, but as Bonds worked on it, this is still designed in Sweden (and developped in the States). Pretty similar to 1e + expansion, with some room cards moved from the catacomb deck, adjustments to damage and traps, and a whole new combat system with a gadzillion of cards.

Actually, the Swedish expansion "Drakborgen 2" was split into 2 expansions for the English release - Heroes and Catacombs. So the Swedish expansion is both.

(What's up, anyway, with "Lönneberget"? Lönneberga is a real place, but much to small to expect foreign language to have their own versions of the name.)

Maybe the list should be arranged alphabetically?

Any sorting except adding order. For example, publication date would be fine.
Sometimes when I’m not sure whether or not a game has been added, I tend to add it to see if it shows up next to its duplicate, but now I saw that it was added last and I thought “Ouch, now I need to go through all of them to see if it’s already there.” Which it was. And I had even commented it there (I removed the comment since I didn’t remember it nor why I wrote it).

If you look at a game's page, you'll find fairly far down a list of all geeklists it's been added to. That too is often very long, but most games on this are pretty obscure, so it's useful for finding if it's been added here.

That the list that I was going through for Pentago. In retrospect it was probably longer than going through this geeklist. Unworkable.
