Boggle

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

July 16, 2001
Boggle is serious fun. Roll the 16 letter dice and make words. It's simple. Your words only count if you're the only one to have them. And because you reroll and reposition the dice each round, there's virtually limitless replays.
The only thing I could fault this for is the minimum age. I'm not sure that 8 year olds would have the wordpower to use it effectively. 10 might be more appropriate.

Card Game - Killer Bunnies and the Quest for the Magic Carrot

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


It's a little about STRATEGY, a little about ALLIANCES, a lot about LUCK, and then ... 'PAY-BACK' TIME!

I recently bought it myself after playing at a friends house this summer! Initially it was a bit tricky learning the rules and game cards, but once I'd played a few rounds I soon understood!

It gets more addictive as you increase your game knowledge! (And ofcourse, there are several extention packs with new cards!)

The only draw-back is, you always need a good hour or so, and a small crowd to play :)

It's the most FUN when played with more than 4 (adults) - especially if some of them are family members, or your partner - when you can really put your 'game face' on!

Scene It? - The DVD Game - James Bond

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


I do not know about Bond and therefore found the game frustratng and too much Bond, Bond, Bond - unlike regular "SceneIt" where I can answer the questions. Not the games fault, but mine for buying it.

So a great fun game for families & friends, but you do need to know the basics about Bond and the various Bond films/theme songs etc to realy enjoy it (as you would expect from a themed product).

Bond buffs will love it, but otherwise get the regular SceneIt for the spread of questions.

Descent

from: Fantasy Flight Games


Firstly, a little explanation. I gave this game three stars for durability because it comes with lots of cards and loads of 1"x1" tokens (as well as huge sack of monster piecves) which will undoubtedly get worn over time and/or disappear up the hoover. Also, one of the many, many plastic monsters in my box was already broken when I opened it up. So we lose points there.

But to be honest, that's as much criticism as I can give. I played this for the first time with three mates (who, like me, played a lot of Hero Quest and other games as youngster) and we had a great time. The learning curve is steep though, and it took us just over five hours to play through the first mission! I reckon if we were to play it agin then we'd probably ... Read More:

Spot the Intro 1 Audio CD Game

I bought this to play during the Christmas holidays. My partner, my mum and I had a great time playing this. We laughed, we struggled, we laughed even more, we struggled even more, we laughed till we cried.

This game was great, it was tough, but kept us amused, and that was all we wanted. I have bought the 2nd and 3rd games to keep us going over other holidays.
