Top 10 App Versions of Board Games
Great explanation! Thank you
My favourite game involving ghosts is 'Goosebumps: Terror In the Graveyard'. Wouldn't be surprised if someone were to say it's the Ouija board, which is classified as a board game. Fun fact: The Ouija board doesn't actually call upon spirits. It's just a piece of cardboard made by Hasbro. Ed & Lorraine Warren (famous paranormal investigators) even said so themselves. If there are spirits, it's actually the players themselves calling the dead into the world of the living. So by that logic, that means anyone can summon spirits of the dead while playing the Game of Life (ironic joke was not intended).
These were some fantastic ghost board game facts. Especially the Ouija board info! Summon spirits while playing the Game of Life - hilarious. And it looks like there are a few Goosebumps themed board games! News to me. My kids would love to play these.
@@GameLikeAMother I think there are 7 in total, though I could be wrong since one of them is Clue with a Goosebumps theme. I personally own 3: 'Terror In the Graveyard', 'A Night In Terror Tower', and 'One Day at HorrorLand'. Your kids probably would love to play them, but some are rare and hard to come by due to being over 20 years old.
Oh wow, I saw maybe four different versions on Amazon. 20 years old! Mostly I’m just sad that I missed so many of these when I was a kid. There were good games out there but they were hard to find. I love the internet - it’s made it so much easier to find games like this.
I’ve been seeing this game around a bunch - now we’re gonna have to get it! I was all-in learning you like to play it as a 2-player with your husband 😊
I’m so glad to hear that! It’s been a really fun game to work on together. Although it is no joke quite challenging. We’ve beaten level 5 once and I think we got lucky. But it’s such a fun challenge. We’re big fans!
To check if you want to start a route but only have 2 out of (example) 4 of the colors needed and no wild- can you start and hope the next draw you draw a color you can use to complete the route or do you need all 4 of the colors (or wild card colors) at that turn?
You need them that turn - good question!
Hi! If I only have a card in my hand, do I have to say "Dos"? 3:52
Best video about level 8 on youtube! Thank you
I bought on Amazon for 10.99 and plays exactly like Phase 10. We use a single discard pile tho not 2.
Hi, Suppose 2 players are playing the game and only have their hand cards left assuming the draw pile is over for both of them. What happens when they are stuck and cannot play any cards further? No matching is possible. This is not explained anywhere even in the rule book provided.
you said to remove an entire “ROW”. Can it be an entire Column or entire ROW if all the numbers are the same?
It's only ever a column you remove - vertical line. Thanks for confirming!
Can you do a video on Elfer Raus card game?
I’m on a hiatus from filming right now but I looked it up and it sounds like a great little card game. There’s even a Paw Patrol themed Junior version. If I start up filming again I’ll definitely go check it out.
Such a helpful video! I have been seeing Scout around and was thinking of buying it, but we already own Dragoness so now we’ll just stick with that 😊Thanks!
I’m so glad this was helpful! Yes, I really enjoy Scout but Reign of Dragoness is similar and has a number of advantages when it comes to getting it to the table.
What the heck does feed the duck mean?
Great video thanks! 4 year old loves Junior Carcassonne and Dragomino but this might be a bit advanced for him until he's 5. :)
Yes, he could maybe hang in there and play this on a team but it’s probably a bit too much to handle on his own until he’s 5. Outfoxed might be a good option though, 100% of kids like it and a 4 year old who is used to board games could probably handle it just fine. Dragomino and My First Carcassonne are stellar choices!
Hi Ma'am, when a player gets a joker card , that player puts the same colour he announced in that turn or the player doesn't get to put a card in that turn ?.
I really need to farkle
Love the sound of the Monster one, Anne. Great theme, the Korean manga thing, love the art. Hope I can find it 😊
It does seem like it would be right up your alley - nice theme, artwork, gameplay. It’s still one of our family favorites!
I've played a game similar to werewolf (it was still in it's testing phase - can't remember what it was called), that my friend got a group together to try out. Rather than a werewolf, it was a demon. I got the role of the hunter that's capable of killing the demon if I guessed right. Within the first round of the first game, everyone suspected of me of being the demon. But I took a chance to save myself and took a shot in the dark by guessing who the demon was..... and I got the demon by pure luck. My friend, who was the host, started laughing because it was the fastest he'd ever saw a game like that be beaten (not even 5 minutes). The look on the demon's face was at first of shock, because the odds of me guessing right were so low (1 in 14 ). Everyone had a good laugh.
Blood on the Clocktower!
Thank you for making this video 😃! I’ve had this game for 7 months now and haven’t been able to play because my kids destroyed the instructions
Ah kids. We often misplace our instructions for games and sometimes I get to refer back to my own videos if we're getting one out that we haven't played for a while. I'm glad this video was helpful!!
Thanks
Well explained!
It’s funny that you talk about Dragonwood as a kids game because I’ve only ever played it with my grown-up friends.
You have awesome friends 😁
I have a question lol. For example, (let’s say blue), your mark that you chose for the game. You roll the dice and you take a few steps. And let’s just say you land on a broken path, or a bridge. What do they mean?
Thankyou foe the clear explanations! Very helpful 😊
My problem is, when you open the box it says do not shuffle cards because they are the tutorial guides lol and n order me and my son messed up because I didn't c that at first and we mixed up the cards... Are we still able to play even thought the decks aren't in order
Yes, you’re supposed to shuffle the cards when you’re ready for a “real” game. But the cards are numbered if you look closely. You can put them back in order and play the tutorial!
Temu se,lls this alot cheaper than Amazon etc.
This was a great topic for a video, good job!
Thanks! It was a fun video to do 😁
Yep Micro/Macro can be a double-edged sword with young kids
We did zero research before our first time playing and there were some surprising themes! Oopsie!
@@GameLikeAMother lol :P
I love all 4 versions but was not aware of the kids version, I am going to check it out. Thanks!
It’s pretty excellent - clearly geared for kids but I can’t think of any other games that fit this niche. It’s been one of our go-to choices for my 9 year old and 5 year old ever since we got it. Definitely worth checking out!
Got a lot out of this one, Anne,. Super interesting to see how these games don't just rely on the theme re-paste but change the mechanisms up slightly. I really appreciate when movie themed games do that. Cockatoos are on my case this morning, by the way. Hope you enjoyed the beach, Tides by Button Shy perfect for that location!
Yes, isn’t it nice when a themed version of a game is more than a reskin? I’m not a huge marvel fan in general but I really like these versions. Take care of those cockatoos and we’ll take care of games at the beach 😁 I don’t have Tides though - missed opportunity!
Heard your review of this on the Dice Tower Board Game Smorgasbord and ordered it right away. I don't have any other roll and writes in my collection so this seemed like a good introduction for both me and my 5-year-old daughter. Thanks for the recommendation!
Oh I’m so glad to hear this! It’s really unique to find a roll and write that works for such a young age. We have so many games but this is becoming one of our most-played because my youngest two kids enjoy it so much. I hope it’s well-loved in your house!
They also have the 4 normal versions on valve steam and are very good!
Oh fantastic! That’s great info to have
One game that can get somewhat inappropriate is 'Telestrations'. No joke, half the time, myself and some of my family members would draw, write and guess something really dumb.
I appreciate the social games that are as clean or as dirty as your group makes them - Telestrations is a great example. We’ve had the same experience with The Game of Things too. It’s whatever your group wants it to be!
Love this one, Anne! Simple but a nice thread of strategy running through it. Hope you're well.
I have poison ivy on my forehead thanks to my 9 year old’s adventures at a summer camp but besides that things are peachy 😁
@@GameLikeAMother peachy is good! You got my latest email, right?
Yes! I’m writing back right now 😊
I haven't played this game in years. I remembered it was a fun game n I defiantly wanted to re learn it. Thank you!
Farkle is a classic! So glad my video was helpful ❤️
I have just recently discovered your channel. I love how clear your explanations are of the different games. Thank you
Thank you!! Great to hear ❤️
Thank you for this video! Exactly what I was searching for
Great to hear! Glad it was helpful ❤️
I don't understand the discarding situation like do you keep refilling your hand as soon as you use a card
Yep, that’s it exactly. You just have different hand limits depending on how many people you’re playing with 👍
@@GameLikeAMother ok thanks! Yeah , after a few games it started to make sense!
You picked a fantastic game this time GLAM, I absolutely love Jaipur. IMHO, this is about the best two player only game out there, and should be in everyone's collection. Superb video as always, I really did enjoy this one!
I’m glad you enjoyed this video! I absolutely agree with you about it being a gold standard among 2 player games. That said - I should let you know I’m going on a bit of a hiatus from filming for a while. I have a bunch of Dice Tower videos that I’ll still need to uploading for the next few months but I’m going back to school to get my masters so I’m stepping back from the board game channel for a bit. We’ll see what happens in the future - I’m still playing loads of games! But it has been really fun to focus on some of our favorites. We played a family game of Qwixx on Mother’s Day and we had never actually done that with all of the kids before. It was so much fun ❤️
@@GameLikeAMother I'm absolutely gutted that you're not going to be making more videos for a while, your channel is one of my absolute favourites. Having said that, it's perfectly understandable, studies must come first, and maybe when you've got your Masters you'll pick up where you left off? I do wish you good luck (and that's the luck of the Irish I'm sending you) and success in your studies, and hope to see you return at a future date! Uh yes, and Qwixx is a fun game!
@@Warriorking.1963 I have really enjoyed your commentary on the games I posted. One of the best parts of doing this channel has been getting to know other gamers, even if it's primarily via RUclips comments! And I''m definitely leaving an open door to returning to filming more for this channel. I've enjoyed it so much and it's not like there's a shortage of games to talk about! The luck of the Irish means a lot, I very much appreciate it!
😂 "We're in America, so we don't know what that means"
What I like is how Americans are fully onboard with these kinds of jokes. We wish for the metric system 😁
I'm sitting with a stupid smile stamped all over my face, a sure sign I really enjoyed your video. It looks like a great game for the little ones, I would play it with them, but it's just aimed a little too specifically at them for me. Loved your little joke about Americans not know what 20cms is. Of course, being in Northern Ireland, we learn the metric system at school, and then use the imperial system for everything else! 🤣 Here, have a thumbs up.
Hah, glad it was a good video. I know, I usually don’t do jokes making fun of a group but even Americans enjoy this specific genre of jokes. And this game is for kids but really it reminds me of something you would do as a parent to prep for delivery of Mother’s Day breakfast in bed or something. It has the same set of skills to utilize 😆
Not a bad idea, but the chicken timer lasts too long. Can only take that chicken sound so long.
It’s actually a bit short at times if you’re playing with a larger group. I think the key bit here is this is NOT a game for adults. Annoying noises don’t seem to faze the kids! 😁
I totally agree with you about Red7! I believe that if the theme were different or somehow deeper, it could help with new players; but once they get passed the abstraction, I love the puzzly feeling of it! I wasn't familiar with Reign of Dragoness, very interesting!
I know, Red7 is such a good game, I really wish it did a better job of grabbing people from the get-go. Although I grew up on standard card games so any time there’s a specialty deck of any sort I’m dazzled 😁
Another vote for Gamewright games- surprised you are not a fan of Sushi Go! I love all your videos - thank you for the effort you put in. May I please request a top 10 list when we have company over. Most games seem perfect for our family of 4 but if another family comes we struggle to find a game for 8. Another option is party games for 10+ people.
I think I just need to play Sushi Go with the right group of people sometime. I see the appeal! And I love sushi! 🤷♀️ Excellent ideas for Top 10’s, thank you!!
I bought a used game and it came without instructions, so thank you for clearly explaining the rules 🥰 but I have one question 🤔 In the video you show that the orange ones win but we have small pieces in one line, so the person who plays blue can still cover them with his big blue one. So in my opinion the game is not over yet as long as you can still use big pieces and change the course of the game. Is there anything written about this in the manual? What do you think about it?
In regular tic-tac-toe the game is over as soon as someone has three in a row, even if the other person would win on the next move. So it’s definitely the same deal here. That said, I think it’s a lot of fun to play around with rules and make up your own fun house rules. So if you would like to try a longer version of the game, have at it 😊
I love it! I played this with my pretty princess 😍 👑 🐈😺
Adorable! It’s such a cute game.
I bought several japanese designer/published games lately. Deep Sea Adventure, Trio, Scout, Kobayakawa, Startups, Viking see-saw, DroPolter and Rafter Five :-) PS! If you ever get single... ;-)
I keep hearing good things about Deep Sea Adventure, I really need to try that one out. Thanks for the recommendations! And thanks, nice to hear I have options 😆
No Thanks and Strike are two quick and fun games. I like Push and Dixit :-)
Strike is new to me - thanks for the recommendation! I love these happy, little games. So easy to get to the table and so fun to play.
You have played Nimalia? I recommend that one. Lost Seas too.
I haven’t played Nimalia yet! And it’s interesting - Lost Seas looks exactly like Downtown Farmer’s Market. I wonder if it’s the same game with a different theme. It’s by the same game publisher so it’s not too unlikely.
You are cool 🙂
Hah, thanks! It’s cool to be this excited about Kingdomino, right? Such a good game!
This game was in the clearance bin at the grocery store, and I got it, and it's so much fun! Thanks for the explanation because I never played it before
I’m so glad my video was helpful! And what a great find - so crazy to find something like this at a grocery store. Games are everywhere these days! 😁
@@GameLikeAMother Il y a un autre jeu que je présente. On reste toujours dans les couleurs. A voir.
I tried a solo playthrough and watched the video to double check my interpretation! Great video (although I wish I had seen a 're-roll' opportunity IRL) - explained this really well! Seems complicated until you start playing and it all kind of falls into place. Great game!
So glad the video was helpful. The game is so good! And I know, I’m always trying to be the right blend of succinct yet thorough in my videos - it’s a balancing act. Hopefully the reroll bonus isn’t too tricky to figure out though. Seems like you have it all down. Like you said, you play through once and it falls into place.
