Was so nice to see you for .00001 second!
It was a blast! Gotta watch out for those surprises under the leaves though! 🫣😳
Anitra interviewing Seppy Yoon from @fightinabox.bsky.social about Puppies or Poop! at #PAXUnplugged. Just a little behind the scenes on some stuff we are putting together for our next episode!

I know, I know, it's only the first week of November... but we like to be prepared for what's next. We have board game gift suggestions for EVERYONE in your family.

"We have *never* cut short a game of Red Letter, Yellow Letter. The goal of winning nine cards is just right."
What makes this party game (from Storm Chaser Games & @25thcentury.games) a good fit?

We really enjoyed this Back Stories adventure, but it's not going to be the right fit for every family. A big thanks to Lucky Duck Games. This series has managed to pull all three of our kids in - no small feat!

Shovel Knight: Dungeon Duels is HARD - which we should have expected.

If you've got a family member who LOVES Shovel Knight and retro platformer #videogames, this minis-packed #boardgame might be worth it.
Thanks to Panda Cult Games for the copy to try!
We confess, we aren't great about asking podcast #BACKTALK questions over to BlueSky, but we're trying!
On the podcast this week we talk about using videogames to connect. So. What multiplayer videogames are you playing? Are they "couch co-op" or local multiplayer… And who are you playing WITH?
"How do I get my kids to play more boardgames with me?" might be the wrong question.
On the #podcast, why you might NOT want to play boardgames and a few other things you could try to meet your kid where they're at.

Draw a quick sketch based on two words... then see if the official Guesser can match the words to each player's drawing! We #review Caution Signs by @tokengaymer.bsky.social & @wscottbrady.bsky.social (from @wisewizardgames.bsky.social ).
This party game works for every age & groups up to 9.
Yeah, we're flipping out just like everyone else about Flip 7 from @theop.games Such an amazing party game in such a small package! See Andrew and Anitra talk about it on this week's SNAP Review! www.thefamilygamers.com/flip-7/

This week we take a look at Reign of Dragoness, a clever twist on ladder climbing for up to 8(!) people from our brilliant friends at Grandpa Becks Games. Check it out before your next shindig!

Whoa! 9 out of 10 from the @familygamersaa.bsky.social . We'll take it!
Biased but this may be one of the best small box filler games released in 2024. Grab a copy from your favorite game store and see for yourself!

I think we connected on BGG :) It’s not really a continuous narrative but games like Story Cubes can really help with creativity. If you want a deck builder suitable for younger kiddos you can try The Tea Dragon Society, but there’s no real narrative there.
Food makes everything better! We definitely enjoyed the a-peel of adding bananas to the classic game Tasso. Check out our thoughts in our most recent SNAP review of Tasso Banana from @25thcentury.games!

Beginning to play the games we picked up at #PAXU - Obelus (Phase Shift Games) is a beautiful abstract game, with simple rules and a gorgeous table presence. This small game is a perfect choice for our breakfast dates!

This #christmasgame is going to get played a lot this #holiday season. It’s even cuter - and thinkier - than the original.
Take a look at this adorable sequel from @wscottbrady.bsky.social and SmirkandDagger !

Roll Player for Andrew, Imhotep for Anitra.
Where do we log “meetings for hugs”?
Would love to be on this list if possible! :)
