So let's take a look!

Flash 10 Card Game Review

I'm not usually a fan of speed-type games.  They're just too anxiety-causing for me. Haha!  But one game that I love and that my kids love is Dutch Blitz!  It's a speed game that's like solitaire in a group.  Everyone is grabbing cards and trying to finish first. It’s fast, it's fun, and it never seems to make me anxious. Well, thanks to the kind folks at Devir, I've found another speed game that is right up there with Dutch Blitz in my family's estimation - Flash 10!

Autumn Card Game Review

Our family are big fans of card games.  We are particularly happy when we find games that play all 5 of us.  But sometimes hubby and I just want a 2-player game.  Or a couple of my kids feel like playing when no one else is available. So quality 2-player games are a must in our home.  That's why I'm so glad I found Autumn, by Devir Games!

Doomlings Review

My family are big card game lovers, so I was excited when the folks at Doomlings asked me to review their game. In Doomlings, each player is a new life form on a distant, alien planet. You're all competing for supremacy - until the inevitable end of the world. (It's a lot less doom and gloom than it sounds. I promise!)

Wingspan Expansions Review

 One of my FAVORITE GAMES OF ALL TIME is Wingspan, by Stonemaier Games! The art is gorgeous. The gameplay is both fun and easy to learn. And the educational value is out of this world! So of course I had to have all of the expansions! (I purchased the European Expansion and received the Oceania, Asia, and Fan Art Pack expansions from Stonemaier Games for review). I've Already done reviews of the base game and the Fan Art Pack, so I thought it was time for a review of the whole lot!

Wyrmspan Review

 Are you a fan of Windspan?  Do the gorgeous cards and "thinky" game play float your boat? Do you also love dragons? Would you like to build your very own dragon sanctuary where dragons of all shapes and sizes can come to roost?  Then Wyrmspan just may be the game for you!

Truck Off Card Game Review

Guys, I love a good card game!  Card games are so much fun.  They usually can accommodate a larger group of people.  They often don't have super complicated rules, so they can be taught to new players fairly quickly. And they're usually short enough in play time that you can play more than once if you really enjoy the game. Not only that, but I also love a good food truck!  Haha! I mean, food? On the move?  Food that just shows up where I am?  Yes please! So, what if there was a card game ABOUT food tucks?  Um, yes, please! Sign me up!

Delicious Game Review

I'm a huge fan of roll & write and flip & write games.  They involve cards or dice, lots of decision-making, and filling in some sort of play sheet, whether with numbers of drawings. These games are my jam!  And my family really enjoys them too! So when the wonderful folks at Pencil First Games offered to send me a copy of their beautiful flip and write game called Delicious, I was giddy with excitement!
