[Ad- gifted product] Farplace is a board game with a mission, as it was created by the animal rescue of the same name, to sort of teach children about rescuing animals and to raise funds for the rescue itself.

It’s a bit complex for little ones, due to the special rules for each different animal, but is a pretty interesting board game all together.

[Ad- gifted product] I feel like everyone has had their fair share of Rubik Cubes in their lifetime. It’s just one of those toys that seemingly has been around forever and will never go away.

[Ad- gifted product] Out at our local Geek Retreat, while Kai had his kid’s DnD Session, Dann, Robin, Amelia and I often enjoy a milkshake and play some of the board games that they have there. We have donated a few that are showcased, but this time decided to bring along something new to play. Sheep Dip is a simple game, where players will take turns drawing a card from the ewe pile, reading out the action, then doing it. It’s not very hard to follow along and see what is happening.

[Ad- gifted product] We do have a massive shelf of board games in our household, and really do enjoy playing them! Recievently, we’ve found ourselves quite busy with after school activities and homework, but as October break gets closer, having a spooky board game on hand is always a good idea! Robin, Dann and I all took some time out of our Saturday to play Ghost Castle – a new tabletop game that takes up a lot of vertical space, becoming a sort of mouse-trap style board game!
