Last night my husband, 10 year old, and I all played Cosmic Colonies, by Floodgate Games for the first time. I'll admit, we had this one for a while before we played it. It sat on the shelf and I'd walk past and say, "I need to play test this one." But the number of components and the recommended age on the box (13+ years) had me worried that it would be overly complicated. And its hard to get the fam - particularly hubby - to play a complicated game. After a long day he just doesn't want to burn his brain learning something super heavy. But Cosmic Colonies is the PERFECT EXAMPLE of a misjudged game! I wish I'd pulled it out much sooner! It was a joy to play and not overly complicated at all! But it was lots of fun!
I'm a homeschooling, gameschooling, food-loving, Jesus-worshiping, wife and mama. I love sharing board game reviews, plus the occasional recipe, craft idea, and book review! I believe that all board games/card games have educational value. Come check out what we play!!!

CrowD Games Review
The wonderful folks at CrowD Games very kindly sent me a few of their games to review. I'll be honest. I'd not heard of these games before, so I had absolutely ZERO preconceived notions about how they would play or what they'd be like. But I was impressed! So I'd love to share them with you!
