Four Dragons, the new edition of Dia de los Muertos is available, at least in Finland. The theme change is an interesting thing — I do like the original theme a lot. Frank Branham, the game’s designer, takes responsibility of the theme change (as mentioned in a relevant Geek thread). I think the new dragon theme is actually quite neat, and I’m considering getting the game even though I own Dia de los Muertos.

I did some background check on the Chinese myth, which explains the origins of the four China’s largest rivers (Heilongjian, Huanghe, Changjiang and Zhujiang). The Four Dragons is a nice little folk tale and a charming background for a game.
