About Tabletop Games and Puzzles

Recent releases lead the way

The largest game is Monkey Palace (5009130-1) from 2024, with 232 pieces. The newest entry in the list, Ninjago: Destiny's Bounty Adventures (5011029-1) from 2026, has 125 pieces. Recent years have also brought games where building is the challenge itself, such as Brick Like This (5009372-1) from 2025 with 48 pieces, and ReCreate Activity Cards: Castle (5010358-1), also from 2025, with 26 pieces. These newer titles show a clear trend: the bricks are no longer just playing pieces but part of the puzzle, with players asked to copy, recreate or invent small models.

Older board games

Going further back, the Racers Super Speedway Game from 2001 is listed under two set numbers, 31314-1 and R31378-1, each with 126 pieces. The Travel Game (852676-1) from 2009 has 82 pieces and, as its name suggests, is meant for playing on the move. The LEGO Time Cruisers Board Game (3096-1) from 1997 has 41 pieces and ties in with the Time Cruisers play theme of the same period, a time-travel range from the late 1990s. Together with the newer games, they show that tabletop titles have appeared again and again across a period stretching back to 1984.

Why the parts lists matter

Tabletop Games and Puzzles belongs to Gear, the parent theme for accessories and merchandise. Because games here often use bricks for boards, pieces and tasks, their parts lists are unusually handy. Second-hand games are frequently missing a few elements after years of play, and the list tells you exactly what the box should contain. The ‘What can I build?’ tool on Bricoria can then show whether your own collection already has the missing pieces, so you can get an old game back to the table.
