Truth Be Told:
Think of this as part Balderdash/The Dictionary
Game (bluffing) with the personal feel & comfort of "Apples to Apples". In
each round, one of the players is the Host, and reads a question card such
as, “Truth Be Told, my favorite snack is _______.” The Host secretly
writes a truthful answer, like...pork rinds. All other players write bluff
answers that might seem like something the Host wrote – pretzels, prunes,
sardines. The Host collects and reads all answers aloud, and players try to
guess the Host’s True Answer. Players score if they voted for the True
Answer - and also if their bluff answer was chosen by others. For 3-8 players ages 12+ and includes 564 Truth Be Told
Questions; 8 markers; 8 Fill in the Blank cards; 8 Paddles. Our take: Clearly the hottest party game for the 2009 holiday season, it works on several levels, being very quick to get started, creative, social & frequently laugh out loud funny. |

Bisikle Tabletop Racing Game
(NEW):
Game enthusiasts will recognize the basic idea as similar to
Carabande or Pitch Car, but instead of flicking a wooden disc, you use the
patented ZBall. The designer says he wanted to mimic flicking a marble in
the sand and that's pretty much the feel you get as you use it. The track
segments are plastic and can be easily assembled into an infinite number of
track designs. It's just plain fun to play, and even more fun designing the
perfect track.

BananaGrams:
Bananagrams, the
hottest selling game of 2008, is a fast-paced, addictive word game. Bananagram's is simple to learn and everyone plays as the same time so there
is no waiting for turns. Each person in the family or group plays at their
own level, using their tiles to form individual crosswords. The resulting
race to grab more tiles and rearrange already-laid letters into new words is
fun and addictive. A bright yellow banana bag holds the tiles and rules,
making it perfect for building vocabulary and practicing spelling skills at
a restaurant, camping or at the kitchen table during impromptu marathon
sessions. It's a great travel game and has won numerous awards in the short
time it has been available. 144 tiles. 2 to 8 players. Ages 7 to Adult Click image to enlarge | $14.98 |

GOLO Golf Dice Game:
This quick and entertaining dice game is simply
golf in a cup! As in real golf, the idea is to shoot the lowest possible
score. The 9 dice represent 9 golf holes on a typical golf course. Each die
has twelve sides with various scores on each side - some great, some not so
good! Players roll all the dice and must remove at least one on each roll to
score. The dilemma usually becomes: should you accept a par or even a bogie
on a particular hole or try a re-roll which could be a bit better or a lot
worse?
Our take: This one surprised us. Golo GOLF
has a bit of a Yahtzee feel to it .... very addictive, fast paced, & fun.
You can play a whole tournament in no time, and there's more strategy
involved than most of those $40+ golf games on the market. You don't have to
be one to get hooked, but golfers will no doubt come up with loads of
variations for play and setting up tournaments. |

Go500 Racing Dice Game:
Experience the thrill of racing action! It's a
race to 500 miles, and the first driver there pulls into Victory Lane! But
to get there you'll have to avoid crashes, pit stops, flat tires, caution
lights, and the dreaded black flag. You can almost smell the rubber when the
racing action heats up!! Go 500 has some of the feel of the classic card game Mille Bornes. The idea is to total as many miles as possible each turn, on you way to 500 miles. One nice feature is the "flag" die. A yellow flag can tighten up the race considerably and a black flag allows all racers a chance to win even if they are behind. This tends to keep things interesting until the very end. Includes: 1 White Flag Die, 1 Green Power Die, 5 Black Track Dice, 1 Yellow Pit Die, 1 Red Crash Die... rules, score sheets, dice cup and more! For 1 or more players. This is the latest 2008-09 edition which includes the new "Crash Rule" Click image to enlarge |

Scrabble ME:
This NEW variation from Winning Moves is what you get when you combine
Scrabble with "Take it Easy" (a now out of print favorite of ours). In
regular Scrabble you have your own tiles and play on a common board; this is
almost the opposite. Here, you build and control your own Scrabble board &
build words simultaneously; scoring is just like in standard Scrabble. After
each round, players can choose a replacement letter from the bag OR from one
of the 12 face-up tiles on the Prize Tile Podium. Another exciting feature
is the wild tile. Each time after one is played, that player must swap
boards with an opponent. We love that there's no down time waiting for your
turn. For 2-4 players. Click image to enlarge |

 | Best of Chronology: Here’s a new twist on trivia that will tweak your sense of time. Did the “Star Spangled Banner” come before or after the invention of the pogo stick? Just when did IBM introduce its first personal computer? History, Arts and Entertainment, Sports, and Inventions and Discoveries are the four challenging categories in this intriguing game. Be the first person to put ten cards in chronological order and win! For 2-8 Players, although we played with more in teams. We really enjoy Chronology. Rather than a card that states "The date electricity was discovered", cards tend to favor more obscure dates like "The date of the 1st street lights in Pittsburgh", so the game does not have the feel of the standard trivia game. It starts out easy enough when you have 2 or 3 cards but the difficulty increases greatly as you approach the 10 you need to win. | $19.98 |
