Apples To Apples Party Box - Expansion 1 Order Now
This expansion comes with a new pack of cards that are mostly of the form ___ and ___. This may sound like a good idea, but it is clear that the designers didn't really think it through. Some of the red (noun) cards are simply poor combinations (e.g. "Whips & Chains"). For some red cards, there was absolutely no need to make it a combination (e.g. "The Atlantic & Pacific"). And in some cases, you have red cards that don't even qualify as nouns (e.g. "Crash & Burn"). To make things worse, they've adopted the same format for the green (adjective) cards, with adjectives that often contradict eachother (e.g. "Naughty & Nice" or "High & Low"), which makes the whole game difficult to play. There are some good cards, but they are few and far between.
Overall, this expansion was both difficult to play and very unrewarding. It does not live up to the standards of the original.Get more detail about Apples To Apples Party Box - Expansion 1.
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (w/ Master Quest) Decide Now
I never had the Nintendo 64 but I did get the Ocarina of Time/Master Quest for the Gamecube. I thought this Zelda was a great one with a lot of surprises and such. The dungeons were really fun to do, except after you get the master sword the dungeons become a challenge. I still freak out at the Forest Temple boss area. The Water Temple, a real toughie. I made it through a few times with no problems, and then I had this one huge problem. I couldn't find a key that I needed. Hopefully I'm not ruining this for those haven't played this game. And I have a question to ask. I don't remember the game anymore (I plan to get a Wii in the future and download this game via Virtual Console or get the gamecube disc and play it from there), do the dungeons show where the chests are? I mean, on the maps inside the dungeons. Like I said before, I couldn't figure out where that one key was till I found it much later. So does the map show where the chests are? (Not the exact location, just the room.)Get more detail about The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (w/ Master Quest).

Save Big Screen Solitaire Handheld Game
My wife and I had older solitaire games from Radica that finally wore out. We were not sure about this model but thought to get two to try out. They were everything we wanted and then some! The screen is nice and large and well lit. In low light it will turn on a back light for the screen. A nice touch is an 'undo' button. It will cost you two points but sometimes I hit the wrong button and what to change what happened. Some have mentioned that the directions on the back are too hard to read but you should know how to play solitaire before trying an electronic one. For us this is best solitaire game we have ever had!Get more detail about Big Screen Solitaire Handheld Game.

Discount eeBoo Clasic Matching Game
This classic game has been issued hundreds of times and by so many toy manufacturers before. But this company has been making them with exceptional quality. Each square is made of brick thick sturdy board. No sharp edges and cut very uniform. I usually don't care much about this kind of toys - I mean, if they lose pieces or damage, like a throw away or garage sale item for next year. But the way it was made, it makes me want to take care of it more or pass it on to someone else.Get more detail about eeBoo Clasic Matching Game.

Bible Trivia Board Game Review
This game is so fun. The title is self explanatory-- hundreds of questions about the bible, with scripture references and short explanations to boot. This game is good for the advanced bible reader or novice because most of the questions are multiple choice, except for the bonus questions (which are really hard). They even have special questions for children so the entire family can play and have fun. Helps you really learn alot about the bible.Get more detail about Bible Trivia Board Game.

Cornhole Bags (Set of 8) by SC Cornhole Top Quality
I bought the weather resistant bags from these guys two years ago before they got on Amazon. Met them in person and they were extremely nice (I showed up 5 min before close and they still did everything for me). I still use these bags all the time and they are great. Let's be honest, it doesn't matter how careful or loyal you are to your bags and board, you're gonna leave 'em out a few times and that's when these are the best to have. Great weight, not too full and no saggy bags either. The stitching is strong and the material even stronger.
Great product. Buying more of them today for my parent's place.

Hasbro Games Trivial Pursuit Family Edition This instant
If you love spending quality with your family as much as I do, you will love this game and this version. It comes with kids cards and adult cards. You also learn new things as you play which is fun and interesting and secretly educational so the kids don't really think of it as learning, it is more fun. The only thing that I didn't really like about it is that there weren't very many cards, so we went through them quickly and found ourselves back to the questions we had been asked earlier, nice thing is we knew the answers then and we could actually get pie pieces hehe. Overall a great family game and I still recommend it and also recommend maybe getting some other extra card sets to add in with the board to make it more interesting and endless learning. I think going over the same cards would get pretty boring after playing it through once. MOST important thing about this game is the quality interaction you have with your family, no distractions, no tv, just fun and laughing and learning together.Get more detail about Hasbro Games Trivial Pursuit Family Edition.

Catan Card Game Buy Now
My wife and I bought this game before we went on vacation at the recommendation of a few friends who are Settlers of Catan board game nuts. We both tried to play the board game with only 2 players and it wasn't much fun, so we decided to try the card game. We were not disappointed. It is the perfect game for 2 players (you can't play with more anyway), and it doesn't drag out for hours upon hours like some Settlers games can take. On our vacation, my wife and I would play every day while our daughters would nap. Be warned, even though it is a card game, it takes up just as much table space, if not more, as the board game does.Get more detail about Catan Card Game.

Discount Little Hands Card Holder
Gamewright's Original Little Hands Playing Card Holders are really great. You can actually teach kids how to play card games - which can be a good learning tool and a genuinely entertaining activity for kids and adults alike - without the whole focus being on keeping the kids' cards from falling all over the place. It makes kids feel more competent when they're able to manage their cards as well as an adult. That, in turn, builds their confidence and lets them focus their attention on learning the strategy and the rules of the game. So, something as simple as this ingenious little device can remove barriers and facilitate the happy bonding of people 50-, 60-, even 75-years apart in age. And, for that matter, at the other end of the age spectrum, those with arthritis may appreciate these card holders for the relief they offer sore hands. They are featherweight little things and make managing a hand of 18 cards a breeze. Every home with kids (or that gets kid visitors) should have a few around. I've bought four so far, but I keep thinking of more people I would like to give them to. They make wonderful gifts.

Purchase Set Enterprises Inc. Set Cubed
One of our college-aged daughters loves to play games. I purchased the original card version of "Set" at Christmas time for the family to play together. Chelsea fell in love with it and took it away to college. Because she enjoyed it so much, I thought she might like this variation of the same game principle. She does! A note of advice: purchase the card game first and become familiar with what constitutes a "set." It takes a little time to mentally process the concept, but once you understand it, the game is enjoyable and is a great brain sharpening tool.

Shop For Traveling Portable Go Game Set Board Magnetic
When I received the item, the two piece of the board doesn't connect up in a way that resembles a go board, one of the metal piece on top is off balance, to get it back to the perfect shape, the only way is the rip out the metal board, and put it back, but then you end up destroying the glue underneath, so basically this thing sucks, big time.

I'm 25 and love to play games, especially with my husband. Unfortunately, most of the great games we own are for 3 or more players. We're always on the hunt for 2 player games. When we saw this one, we thought it'd be worth a try. I know it's made for kids (and our niece and nephews are fans) but we have fun with it too! Plus, it has the great metal case that makes it so easy to carry around with you and keep up with. We take it with us when we go out to dinner sometimes and play it at the table while we wait for our food. When our order arrives, the cards pick up quickly and go right into their case and out of the way. GREAT game overall and a must have!Get more detail about Blink Game.

UltraPro 3-Inch Baseball Album,Black Decide Now
I bought this for my 3 month old son for Christmas, with the hopes of buying him a new Topps baseball card set every year throughout his youth. Considering that it was the lowest priced card collection album I could find on Amazon, I wasn't sure what to expect, but I am very pleased by my purchase. The binder has a soft cover, and the rings lock together firmly. There is a clear pocket on the binding that allows you to fill out a label so you can identify the binder when it's on a shelf. One problem I always had with my own binders in the past was that the rings didn't lock very firmly and the pages always fell out. But so far, that has not happened with this binder. I plan to buy this same binder again next year when my son gets his second set of baseball cards!Get more detail about UltraPro 3-Inch Baseball Album,Black.
Ravensburger Enchanted Forest - Family Game Right now
I remember playing this as a child back in 1986. When I saw it was still being sold, we purchased a copy to play with our kids. The game has thirteen trees with fairy tale treasures (i.e. cinderella's glass slipper, rapunzel's tower, and the golden ball from the frog prince) underneath that match 13 playing cards that are kept in the castle. Players move around the board looking under trees for the treasure that matches the displayed card, then race to the castle. The first player that makes it to the castle and correctly remembers where the corresponding treasure is gets to keep the card. First player with three cards wins. An average game with 3 players takes about 45 minutes to play.
Our kids (now 7 1/2 and 5) just now have the attention span to sit through an entire game. Usually we would play for 30 minutes and then just put the game away. Some other reviewers have suggested some helpful modified rules to move along the gameplay and keep everyone engaged.
The version we purchased included some more obscure fairy tales (maybe more common in Europe)? Also, the pawns were painted wood while the trees are molded plastic. The quality of all of the pieces is high and the gameboard is durable. As a parent, I like this game because it encourages memorization and evaluating alternate moves. Specifically, the rules allow you to change directions (i.e. move one way the number on one of the die, and reverse directions for the number on the other die) which increases the chances of landing on a treasure space.Get more detail about Ravensburger Enchanted Forest - Family Game.
