Battleship

from: David Halsall International


I remember when the first version of this game came out in this form when I was a lad and my mum being quite dismayed that a game she used to play with pencil and paper was now presented by little plastic boats and hit and miss pegs!

Nearly 30 years on from that event, my children and I are still getting plenty of enjoyment out of this game and I would heartily recommend this as a great addition to the games cupboard for the whole family.

Where this strategy game works very well is that even if a adult is playing against a much younger child because there is always an element of luck in the hitting of your opponent's ships and a random placement of your ships can work just as well as a much thought out one, the chances of ...

Ticket To Ride Europe

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Games for Grown-ups
from: Esdevium Games (First Order Account)


This is a real hit with our family whose age range is 5 - 75. Once rules explained no reading apart from matching place names on board to those on your ticket, max hour to play and unlike monopoly you don't know who has won until the final count up so younger players don't get disheartened half way through. Some play it strategically but our five year old won the first couple of times he played which was refreshing but there is enough of a challenge for older players to want to keep playing to improve their tactics. It is addictive.

Nookii

This game is split into 3 levels, which get naughtier as they go along. While my boyfriend and I thought the 1st level was great, things didn't really heat up enough in the next 2.

Also, we found the game a bit repetitive, having played it a few times.

If you're already an adventurous couple looking for new ideas, you might find this game a bit too tame. We did have a laugh playing it, however.

Scattergories

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Games for Grown-ups
from: Hasbro


Scattergories is a really good game. Basically, you roll a dice which gives you a letter from the alphabet. Each player then individually works through a category card which gives them a list of categories, and they have to think of something for each category which begins with the letter. This is then repeated with a different letter but the same categories. Then, in round 3, there is an open ended category, and each player has to write down as many things beginning with the rolled letter as they can think of. In each round, you only score points if no other players have got the answer.

There are a few little rules which say some things you can and can't write down, but the other key part of the game is that if there is a dispute - over, for instance, whether ... Read More:

Great addition to a night in with your friends playing Poker. Easily folds out and simply plonks on a tabletop (round one recommended), crack open the drinks and fetch out the nibbles...and away you go!

Me and my friends started a game of Texas Hold Em at 7.30pm......the final 2 were still playing at 3.30am!!!

Makes for a great social night, so dig out your cards and put on your best Poker face!

Trivial Pursuit Genus

from: Hasbro FirstOrder Account


I rang hasbro when they redesigned the trivial pursuit board to complain about what they'd done and was told that customers liked the new version and that there would be no going back.

I can see that no no one else likes it either but putting the reviews on amazon obviously aren't sufficient.

If you love triv like I do then please email hasbro/mb customer services and let them know what a balls up they've made!
