Reiner Knizia's best-selling design is probably The Lord of the Rings, a cooperative game published in 2000 in which players work together to destroy the Ring and eliminate its evil influence while Sauron is trying to corrupt them. More than 500 of Knizia's games and books have been published. Among the most notable of his games are Lost Cities, a two-player card game with an archaeological theme; Modern Art, an auction game about collecting art; Ra, an auction game with an Egyptian theme; Taj Mahal, a board game set in the famous Indian monument; and Tigris and Euphrates, set at the beginning of civilization. Knizia has published numerous game-related books, including Blazing Aces! (2007, Convivium Publications and FRED Distribution), Dice Games Properly Explained (1999, Elliott Right Way Books), and New Games in Old Rome (1996, Reaching Moon), along with a number of German-language books such as Das große Buch der Würfelspiele (2000, Hugendubel and Weltbild), Kartenschach (2000, Berliner Spielkarten), Kartenspiele im Wilden Westen (1995, Hugendubel), Neue Spiele im alten Rom (1994, Hugendubel and Piatnik) and Neue Taktikspiele mit Würfeln und Karten (1990, Hugendubel).
