Have you ever bet on a camel race?
I doubt that most people readying our game reviews have.
Well, now’s your chance! Step up to the table in Camel Up and give it a shot!
Of course, there isn’t any real betting going on, but you are guessing which camels are going to be in the lead each leg and win the race in the end.
And with how these camels move in the race, you can never be quite sure how it’s going to finish.
So much fun!

One of our favorite game accessories (if you could call it an accessory) is our Game Canopy game bag.
Any time we want to take some games with us — whether on vacation, or to grandma’s house, or to a game convention, or over to a buddy’s house for game night — we fill our Game Canopy with games and we’re on our way!

Well, that’s now a concern of the past — because The Game Canopy Deep Space game bag is set to release!

But before we dive into the new year, let’s take a look back at 2018.
