Since we don’t live anywhere near a volcano, we don’t usually worry about lava destroying our home and neighborhood. And if we were to think about it, I’m sure it would be a horrendous thought. But even if the thought of a real volcano erupting in our town would be awful, the prospect of playing [...]

Do your kids enjoy dexterity games? Dexterity games are defined as the class of games that includes any game in which the skill element involved relates to manual dexterity or hand-eye coordination (but excludes the class of video games).

Have you ever imagined you’re an alien and you’ve come to Earth to abduct humans, chickens, and cows? No? Well neither had we. Until we got a copy of Martian Dice by Tasty Minstrel Games that is. Then it was “game on” and we started capturing life forms left and right and having a lot [...]

Our now 16 year son, Trevor, loves to edit our video reviews. But he doesn’t like to get in front of the camera to review the games very often. So when he’s excited to do a review, we know it’s a game that he loves. And he was very excited to talk about Smallworld. In [...]

For some reason, they tend to have the inclination to always “one-up” someone else. (Of course, we’ve met people that never seem to outgrow that tendency – but that’s another story). [...]

Do your kids ever make up crazy words – ones that you don’t have a clue what they’re saying? (Ok – we don’t mean teenagers, because they have a language all their own anyway.) Well, Out of the Box published a party game earlier this year that’s all about making up crazy words like Bushoidan, [...]

A lot of the board games that we review and love can only be found at hobby game stores or online. Typically the games you could find at WalMart, Target, and other big box stores were only the ones put out by Hasbro and Mattel and such. But that’s no longer the case! Tonight Michelle [...]
