Risk goes to the moon!

Risk is a old standard and when I saw this remake come out I was skeptical at best, but I played it anyways. This game is amazing. It solves many of the issues that many people complain about, the largest being game time, and added great, new features.

Chess with bright lights

Normally chess sets do not catch my eye, but this one did. This LED Chess Set plugs in and by simply placing the piece on the board it lights up.

Five suits makes a better card game

Five Crowns is a card game for 3+ players and is a great way to laugh the night away. The object of Five Crowns is to have the least amount of points after 10 rounds with the rules changing each round.

Push and position are key

Abalone is a great, simple game. The object is to push your opponent's marbles off the board and pushing is done by the number of marbles. For example, two black marbles can push one white marble with the max marbles that can be moved being two. That's it! Abalone is a game that can be taught in minutes and still be challenging after many, many games.
