BATIK REVIEW

A simple instruction to abstract games, Batik from Gigamic and designed by Kris Burn of GIPF fame is a simple, wooden, puzzle, which our littlest learners can pick up and play in seconds.

MICONS REVIEW

A little box of 50 double-sided cards, Micons by Gigamic and Hachette Board Games UK is a sweet, fun kid’s visual game of associations, using pictures instead of words.

IMAGICIAN

IMagician from Blam! and Hachette Board Games UK is unlike anything I have seen in this genre. Not just a beefed up version of an old pencil-and-paper favourite. Not at all. This game takes the core idea and completely re-invents it for a much more immersive and engaging experience!

FINDING THE DRAGON

A choose your own adventure with a really innovative and engaging design, Romeo Hennion’s story, “Finding the Dragon”, is the first in a series of wonderful narrative based experiences for our youngest gamers to enjoy!

WORD ON THE STREET

If you haven’t heard of it before, Word on the Street is a game which manages to make spelling fun. Not just fun, but a tug-of-war vocabulary battle between two, or teams of, players.

TAKE IT EASY

A classic from Ravensburger, Take it Easy is simple to learn but tricky to master. A bingo style mathematical puzzle, this game does not let you take it easy!

NMBR9

NMBR9 is a polyomino tile laying puzzle with a difference, and will test your spatial skills to the limit. Can you pile them high, or will you suffer middle layer spread?
