I highly recommend both of these games. Wordstorm is like Scrabble except that you don’t build off of other people’s words, you build off of your own words. Every person that is playing takes a corner of the board and that is their space to work in. We rarely play games by the rules so as to accommodate everyone in the house…this game is no exception.
Tikki Topple is a FANTASTIC game. It took us a little while to figure it out, but once we did we discovered how much fun it is. I will say, however, that this is the kind of game that in order to win you have to screw over the other people who are playing. In other words, if you have a kid who is a sore loser, don’t play this game. (In other words, don’t play this game with Colm.) The tide can turn in this game in a hurry and someone who thinks they are going to win can lose in a hurry. It says it is for ages 10 and up, but I would say a sever year old could probably play it. I would definitely do a few practice rounds first no matter how old you are so everyone can see how the game works before you starting playing for blood real. 🙂
