Uncle Wiggily: The character of Uncle Wiggily was created by Howard Garis in 1910 for a children's book, and turned into a game by Milton Bradley in 1916. Since then, there have been numerous redesigns. This edition is most faithful to the 1949 version. Join everyone's favorite gentleman rabbit on an adventure through the forest to the home of Dr. Possum. Players take turns pulling cards and moving tokens around the board. Simple rhymes indicate how many spaces to move and are fun for children to learn. Even pre-readers can play. Clear numbers on each card give them an equal chance to greet Dr. Possum first and win.$15.40

Royal Parchessi : This is based on the original Selchow & Righter Company version from the late 1800s. Also know as the Royal Game of India, this edition thankfully recalls the classic artwork generally available from 1874 through the late 1980s. The dice cups are back and the pawns are wood too. For 2-4 players, ages 8+ $17.90
Stadium Checkers: Players align their marbles in the proper colored section of the 5-level rotating bowl. One-by-one, players move a section of the bowl advancing their marbles closer to home. The first player to get all four marbles in the center chute wins! Ages:  8+, Players: 2 to 4
Our Take: Although smaller than the original this is a faithful & nicely done version of the 50's classic. It is much nicer than the game Milton Bradley flop produced in the 80's. Stadium Checkers was one of the most unique (and fun) games produced, and we couldn't be happier to see Winning Moves bring it back.
Contents: 24 colored marbles (6 red, green, blue, and yellow) and instructions

Facts in Five: Reintroduction of the most popular Bookshelf Game from 3M (and later Avalon Hill) in the 1960s; a classic fact-filled game. Get your friends together for a die-hard trivia challenge. Players must name five members of five categories before their time runs out. For example, can you name Presidents starting with the letters P, B, G, T and W? It's harder than it looks! Invented by Rick Onanian, this classic is played throughout the world.
Our take: This is one of our favorite games. It is the forerunner of Scatergories, Trivial Pursuit, and, for that matter, all "party" / trivia games. It can be played by 2-5 players (more in teams). One unique feature is that play will gear itself to the players involved. It can be as hard or easy as those playing choose to make it. Everyone plays at the same time, so no sitting around waiting for turns. Each game (or round) takes only 5 minutes. Welcome back to a true classic.
