===Lara 009.001===
The [[Lara documents/Lara 009.001|first game]], called johvets (<dni>jovex</dni>), was restored by [[Blade Lakem]] and released on February 1, 2008 (Leevosahn 24, 9663). The rules were restored from a D'ni game book in poor condition. There were many variations on the rules, so this is just the most basic version.

The game involves eight regions of the board ("ages"), which are divided into smaller regions. Some regions are called "link-in points", with two to four in each age, for a total of 23. There are three tokens: units (which the player uses to control regions), linking books, and link-in points. There are two to five players.

To win, a player must control three quarters of either the linking books or the link-in points. A book is controlled by being in the same region as it; a link-in point is controlled by having been the last player in that region.

Players can link to other ages or move to adjacent regions, taking books with them if desired and possible. Decisions for each unit are told to a judge, who follows specific rules for allowing certain moves. All turns take place at the same time, so there is a system of reinforcement: a player can make one unit reinforce another units decision, and if two or more players' units try to go to a single region, the one with the most reinforcement wins. In the case of a tie, none of them move.

After the units have been moved comes the supply phase. For each link-in point captured during the turn, a player receives either a unit or a linking book. Writing a linking book causes a corresponding link-in point to be placed too; from then on, the book can be moved, but the link-in point cannot.

The game is one of strategy and cooperation, but it is very likely that alliances made would be broken frequently.
