Where To Buy 20Q Harry Potter


I purchased this game awhile back and have used it frequently. It's a good toy to have when you just want to kill a few minutes. No major complaints. The only frustrating thing is that some of the questions do not at all pertain to your answer. For instance, you may have told the machine that you are thinking of an 'thing' (such as The Quibbler or Bertie Bott's Beans) However, the machine still asks questions such as "Do you like Harry Potter?" It doesn't seem to really matter whether you enter 'person', 'place', 'thing' or 'unknown.'

Still, a fun item to have and the backlight on it makes it very easy to read. It would be nice if the questions would go faster. There is a button on the side which does speed it up, but on the next question it is back down again. Worth the price they are selling it for here.Get more detail about 20Q Harry Potter.

Shop For Chessex Role Playing Play Mat: Battlemat Double-Sided Reversible Mat for RPGs and Miniature Figure Games (26 in x 23 1/2 in) Squares/Hexes


so i just got into DnD 4e and i've been reading up on being a DM. now at the time i was investing in the tiles that WoTC came out with, but i'm just spending money. then when i bought the modules adventures they didn't have the published maps with them so it left me confused and thinking 'how can i use those dungeons if i don't have the tiles or maps?' then i saw this battle map here and thought i give it a try since i read a lot of good reviews about it. when it came i felt the quality of it, really great look and i also bought the wet markers it came with since the mat is made of vinyl. USE wet eraser markers not dry because with wet you can wipe it clean with a wet cloth and use it again with dry its permanent. i'm now gonna buy the mega mat as well which is about 2ft by a 1 1/2 since i bought 2 of these which is worth it but a bigger one will sever better especially if you don't want the hassle of erasing and drawing a new area because you don't have enough room. its one side square and the other hex so if you're looking for double sided squares you'll be disappointed, but this will last you for a long time and save you money in the long run as well and as a DM i'm more prepared to run my dungeons and the hex you can use for other Role Playing games.

overall a great buy and you'll be happy that you bought it too, i know i am. also DON'T fold it roll it because it'll leave creases that'll be hard to remove. and like i said if you you're looking for the double sided square on this one you'll be disappointed but it's worth buying.Get more detail about Chessex Role Playing Play Mat: Battlemat Double-Sided Reversible Mat for RPGs and Miniature Figure Games (26 in x 23 1/2 in) Squares/Hexes.

Perfection Review


This game is actually pretty challenging because of the small size of the pieces and the short amount of time you are given. I like it because it strengthens hand-eye coordination, but I am an adult and usually can't beat this game. If you want your child to have a challenge that they won't soon outgrow, consider this game.Get more detail about Perfection.

A great game - simple in rules but a real thinker when it comes to strategy - so many ways to reach your goal and so many ways to get thwarted.

Euro Game Card Sleeves (100 Soft Sleeves/Pack - 59 MM X 92 MM) This instant


Cheap, effective card sleeves. Nothing spectacular, but they suit their purpose very well. Other reviewers mentioned the variance in size. One reviewer came away with bent cards. I noticed the size variance too but after sleeving 600 cards, I found not a one sleeve that was too small to fit. Maybe dude just got a bad batch. Don't hesitate to buy these. They're fine.Get more detail about Euro Game Card Sleeves (100 Soft Sleeves/Pack - 59 MM X 92 MM).

Revolving Card Holder For Six Decks Immediately


We found the revolving six deck holder makes the game eaiser. We use this when playing Hand & Foot or Hand, Knee and Foot. Also purchased at the same time was the revolving two card deck holder and two deck shuffler. Purchases were made thru Amazon. I find they are prompt with shippments.Get more detail about Revolving Card Holder For Six Decks.

Silly Faces Stick-Ons Game Buy Now


We purchased this at an upscale toy store in the Indianapolis area for my daughter's birthday. The spinner never worked (flimsy plastic inside cardboard insert...won't stay in for 9 out of 10 attempts at a spin. The colorform stickers themselves never did stick to the cardboard much and DEFINITELY did not stick back on the waxed paper where you're ostensibly supposed to store them. I've read other reviews suggesting that the formula or approach to manufacturing must have changed over the years as the new colorforms don't stick as well as the old. That's definitely my experience - this was as bad or worse as a heavily used set we bought at a garage sale when ours was fresh out of the box.

Pretty disappointing...thankfully my daughters don't seem to mind as much as my wife and I do when we attempt to play the game with them.Get more detail about Silly Faces Stick-Ons Game.

Cosmic Catch - Colors May Vary Decide Now


First, I am relieved I am not the only one who had issues getting to the battery compartment. As a father of two children, I've inserted batteries into every toy imaginable---but this was ridiculous. I have pretty much every type/size screw driver available. Because I could not see the head of the screw, I checked the instructions and all it had was a picture of a Philips head, so of course I used a standard #2 Philips. Within seconds I stripped the head of the screw. A note in the instructions stating that precision screw driver was required would have been helpful. This is a MAJOR flaw of the toy.

I was eventually able to get it off, and I'm glad I did as the toy is a lot of fun. I was skeptical as to how well the system would read the hand pads, but it is incredibly sensitive and captures/records players catches with ease. This game is much like Hyperslide meets Hot Potato. While we've only played it a few times, the entire family has thoroughly enjoyed the game. However, I not looking forward to having to replace the batteries on this.Get more detail about Cosmic Catch - Colors May Vary.

Halex Stick-Ums Toss Game (colors may vary) Right now


They look like a great toy to play with at the beach but don't get them wet. The flimsy cardboard backing will immediately begin to fall apart. Even when they weren't wet the plastic ring fell off after a few throws. They are in the dump now.Get more detail about Halex Stick-Ums Toss Game (colors may vary).

Save Buzzword


This was a great game as a party game My 9 and 11 year old could play as long as they were on teams with adult family members. It is more fun with more people. I would recommned it more for a party of 6 or more than for a 4 person family game, although it could be played that way.Get more detail about Buzzword.

Cheapest Spring Swings Fun Ride Original Zip Line


Fun Ride having been one of my children's activities many years ago, I was inspired recently when I saw one in a yard along the street. The briefest of searches took me to a great deal through Amazon, and I bought two for my grandchildren. I found reviews from people who had trouble installing it to be pathetic; I'll bet they don't even know how to start a lawn mower. I also howled at the preposterous safety regulations which cover pages of small type; our old Fun Ride ran from tree to tree over the deep ravine which has since been filled to make our driveway. the children used to carry rocks between their feet and bomb targets in the hole. No one was ever hurt playing the Fun Ride as hard as they could push it and themselves. My grandchildren push it and themselves just as hard. I bought a 100' length of heavier cable with clamps to extend the distance beyond the modest but reasonally adequate one supplied. Our old Fun Ride did eventually break, I can't imagine how, but it was not when a child was on it. Timeless fun.Get more detail about Spring Swings Fun Ride Original Zip Line.

Cheap Farkle The Classic Dice-Rolling, Risk-Taking Game


We love this game and my daughter is learning to recognize the number dots and also numbers (we bought extra dice with actual numbers instead of the dots).

Buy Battleship (Box Styles May Differ)


Battle ship s a great way to build strategy. It is a very simple game to play, just aim and fire! Battleship is not a game for many people, so it can be inconvenient at times.

Order Mikasa P1000K WAKA 10" Official Adult Kickball


This ball lasted months with high school seniors pounding it everyday. For 20 minutes a-day it took our abuse. The ball is very strong, the flight is true and the texture resilient. The ball always worked until the day it met face to face with a tree. Poor little guy.

This ball is maybe 3 times as good as the $4 balls from Walmart. Best ball on the market.Get more detail about Mikasa P1000K WAKA 10" Official Adult Kickball.

Shop For Wood Expressions Tournament Chess Set with Black Canvas Bag


Bought it to teach my grandchildren just like I did my children. This is a great set to start as you can roll it up and carry it anywhere. I truly believe that chess is one of the greatest games you can teach a child along with cribbage and dominos. Cribbage and domino teachs how to count and chess will teach them how to think and plan. Started mine at 4 but was late with the grandkids as I didn't get started until they were 5.Get more detail about Wood Expressions Tournament Chess Set with Black Canvas Bag.

Zobmondo Entertainment The Ladybug Game


My kids are 3 and 4. We play this game about 3 or 4 times a week. My kids really enjoy it. They like looking at and ask questions about bugs. It also helps with counting, waiting turns, and about winning and losing. It's not really a super educational toy but it's fun to play wih toddlers.Get more detail about Zobmondo Entertainment The Ladybug Game.

Mindware Square Up Review


I love the large size of the tiles for little kids to move around. There is one pro & con on the outermost circle of tiles:

1. Pros: Very useful for young kids to manipulate the tiles around the square to get the tile to where they need to.

2. Cons: It takes a bit for the kid to realize the actual puzzle starts in the second row, second column. Have to close the lid, explain their target 9 squares.

But, once the kids understand that, its great. Kid loves it. Will use it in travel - light & tiles wont fall off. Very good for exercising the little brains and adult brains!

So far looks good in durability. Have played only a few times. So, giving it four stars.Get more detail about Mindware Square Up.

Out of the Box Publishing, Inc. Word On The Street - The Hilarious Tug Of Words Get it now!


I played this game at a Meetup on the upper west side of Manhattan. I've always liked word games, and this one is fun. You have to think, but you're in teams and you have 30 seconds to discuss and come up with an answer. Mind you there are some topics that will make you think harder than others. But the vowels and more difficult letters like Q, X and Z are not included. There's 17 letters total, and you can try to get a letter back on your team's side of the street if it hasn't gone off the board yet. Capturing eight letters on your side of the street wins the game.

The game is easy to learn and takes about a half-hour to play. It's a fun game that makes you think, which I personally like. Plus it makes a great team party game. One tip - you might want to have the Scrabble dictionary handy in case of a dispute with a word's spelling.Get more detail about Out of the Box Publishing, Inc. Word On The Street - The Hilarious Tug Of Words.

What is fun about the red deck is it has bunnies that have special powers. For instance, you might have a red bunny that allows you have an extra roll of the dice everytime there is a roll off between players, or gives you three dollas to spend everyturn you have. So it is a fun added element to the game and makes the red bunnies desirable to have.Get more detail about Killer Bunnies Red Booster.

Cheapest Warhammer 40K Assault on Black Reach Starter Set


For those looking to get into Warhammer 40k, this product is the way to go. While the instruction booklets don't really give you the whole feel of playing the game, the models included are well worth the money, since similar models priced individually would cost at least twice as much. Be aware before buying this kit that it is not all inclusive, though. While you can play a small game right out of the box, tournament minded players will want to bulk up their army. The unpainted models need to be put together and painted, which is a great way to make your army your own. A great value for the price and a great way to start playing Warhammer 40k.Get more detail about Warhammer 40K Assault on Black Reach Starter Set.

Cheap Original Memory


Our children grew up with the "original" memory game so now it was time to introduce this fun matching, memory experience with our two year old grandchild.

This was not the "original" - colors are not as vivid, pictures are sweet and cute and the cards are firm cardboard that hold up to little fingers.BUT,

why are they rectangular instead of square? Makes for difficulty putting the game away for little hands when they only fit into the frame one way.

We loved the original and this game does teach the concept of matching and with cute figures but it could be improved. Make them square and use bolder colors.Get more detail about Original Memory.

I purchased this product to use from time to time in my therapy practice with teenagers.

The instructions are flexible to accomodate a variety of purposes, and it is free of judgement. I would recommend this game to anyone who works with (or has) children or adolescents, and think it would be a great game to play at sleepovers and small get togethers with young people as well.Get more detail about The Ungame.
