LOTR Confrontation Deluxe Ed.

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Educational Games
from: Fantasy Flight Games


Please note that I've only played this game twice. Both times as the fellowship; my friend wanted to play Sauron both times. My aim was to get Frodo to Mordor; my friend wanted to slay Frodo or get 3 characters to the Shire. Either player can lose the game by not being able to move forward (you have to move some character forward on your turn).

The regularly spaced board positions are named after the regions of Middle Earth, though they do not form a map. The theme of the "lord of the rings" settles nicely over this game. That is if you are (like me) inclined to role-play your characters. I sent Sam with Frodo, Pippin with Gandalf. Presumably this will become predictable after a few games. But there's a certain pleasure to be gained ... Read More:

Spider-Man & Friends Memory Match-up

This game is your basic ages old memory game. We have owned a couple other card versions of "Memory." I cannot get my 3-year old son to concentrate on the card games,this version is another story. This game has 10 super hero figures that come apart at the waist into heads and feet. He plays the game as was meant and when he makes a match he is is so excited because it actually accomplishes something when he gets to put the 2 body halves together to create a figure. Then he can play with them when the game is over. The figures are ADORABLE! They are so little and chunky and cute. Additionally, the hard plastic case, which flips over for use as the game board, has kept the peices from getting lost because it can take a little hauling around ... Read More:

We played this with our kids 10,12,14. The game is easy to setup, easy to understand and fun to play. Takes about 1 hour to complete and is enjoyable for everyone. It's somewhat educational, and needs a little bit of strategy. Simple enough, yet fun for all.

Chicago White Sox World Series Monopoly

I bought this item as a Christmas gift; the recipients were so excited about this gift that we played with it immediately. My only negative is that this game will become passe in a few years because most of the players featured in the game will not be with the Sox. Still, it should live on as a collector's item, if nothing else.

Expansion Pack for The 'NEW' Touch game

I bought this for my granddaughters age 3 and 2. The 3 year old is in love with this game as are the 4 year olds in my Sunday School class. My 3 year old granddaughter helps her sister play the game as well. This game helps develop the senses not only touch but discerning by visual as well. Adults and kids playing together can have a great family time. I LOVE THE TOUCH game. My Sunday School class will sit quietly and do everything for the morning as long as the reward is to play the touch game. Very good for handicapped children and busy kids as well. I brought the game to the Park and all the kids were surrounding the game and wanting to play. The pieces in the game are so fun as well as educational, such as the Statue of Liberty, the Eiffel ...
