The Mind Extreme

What’s New About the Extreme Version? Last year I was introduced to The Mind. I consider it to be the ultimate cottage or camping card game. Everyone I know has fallen in love with it. When I saw the extreme version, obviously I had to pick it up. If you’ve never played The Mind, I…

Medium

After the success I had playing The Mind, I was all over the idea of Medium, just to get that same spooky mind reading sort of feeling. I haven’t played this a lot, from my experience its a hit or a complete miss. It seems to really depend on who you are playing with. It…

Slapagories

I have a very soft spot for quick games and with good reason, they are easy to get people interested, the set up is fast and its takes nothing to explain the rules to get started. Scattegories is a great classic, but sometimes you want something a bit lighter, faster and with a tiny bit…

Fun Employed

Another game that offers a little bit of creative thinking, in this game you are going to build a resume and get a job.  Seems pretty relatable.  This can be played with 3 or more players and is for 13 years and up. This game falls into a category with Cards Against Humanity or Superfight. …

Say Anything

Say Anything was designed by Dominic Crapuchettes and Satish Pillalamarri. It was published by Northstar Game Studio. It is a game to test how well you know what your friends are thinking combined with a little bit of wagering. This plays well for ages 13 and up with 3 to 8 players. Games take roughly…

Throw Throw Burrito

Throw Throw Burrito is a game that combines cards and throwing things. Something I didn’t know I wanted and turns out I definitely needed. I love this one, it’s made by the same people that brought us exploding kittens. I love that it keeps that style but has completely different gameplay, it’s fresh and it’s…

Blockbuster

Blockbuster is an amazing game that game that came out this year. If you are looking for a last minute Christmas gift, a game for any family dinner or an evening with friends, I recommend picking up a copy. It will take about half an hour to play and is for ages 14 and up….

Jungle Speed

I’ve owned a copy of Jungle Speed for over 10 years. I remember playing it at a game night, before I really started building a collection and buying it almost immediately after. At that point as a non gamer, that was fairly significant. Now I’ll buy a game without thinking twice, I’m at the game…

Dan and Phi’s Truth Bombs

Truth Bombs, an amazing game to see how well everyone knows you. There are a lot of question and answer games out there, what I like about this one is you are answering questions as someone else. Since you are answering as another player, this should really be played with people you know well. This…

Sushi Go

Sushi Go is a fairly fast card game for ages 8 and up for 2 to 5 players. The game takes about 15 to 20 minutes to play. The idea is your trying to get the best sushi combo. It’s a draft and pass game that’s simple to play. The cards are adorable, and a…
