Got the kids (6 and 4) a bunch of games this Christmas and they love them.

Stuffed Fables: fun little dungeon crawler, but the game plays a little slow for my 4 year old. 6 year old is loving the story and can’t get through the battles fast enough to hear more. I think it’s because she can relate to the story (moving to a big bed, stuffies, favourite blankets etc). The production is well done and has made me want to paint the minis.

Rhino Hero Super Battle: 4 year olds favourite game. Loves building the towers and loves it when it falls over even more. Quick to setup and play. Would be even good with adults and a few wobbly pops.

Dinosaur Tea Party: A much better version of guess who. Can play with more with than two people which is nice for our family of 4. My 6 year old is wanting to play this game constantly. Nice visuals on the cards and little helper tokens have really helped my young kids figure/deduce the choices on their own.

Gnomes at Night: simple co-op game where you work together with a magnetic gnome trying to get as many treasures as possible. Tough for my 4 year old as he has trouble communicating his directions, but we started using fingers to point which way we need the other player to go and that helped big time. Simple setup and good to help kids learn directions


The amount of great kids games that are more than just snakes and ladders, candyland, etc. really is awesome. So glad I’ve gotten into this hobby as I think my kids are gonna love playing these unique and fun titles.


Picked up Mysterium on sale for my wife. Watched a few YouTube videos on it. Seems like it could be a good, easy to learn/play for some of our larger get togethers. Probably will try it New Year’s Eve
