The box comes with coasters, for the tea party you should be having when you play. It's absolutely beautiful, with gold inlay on the backs of the cards and gorgeous art of Alice and the host of characters. Parade gets my award for 'Best Production Value in a Simple Card Game' (tied with Diamonds from Stronghold Games). Can you keep the parade going, and make the fewest folks quit early? You've been tasked with the direction of the parade, and if the fictional characters see others wearing their costumes, they'll go home. It takes a single sentence to teach, requires only the most basic reading and counting skills, and provides an educational experience inside a light game with awesome pictures of animals!Īlice and the rest of Wonderland's denizens are having a fantastic parade, but apparently they're all wearing similar costumes. It's $13, it comes in a neat tin, and it's one of a great line of similar games from Asmodee and Bombyx.

If you've got kids under 13, go buy this game right now. but do you know if a horse weighs more than a manta ray? You might be surprised.

It's not particularly difficult to guess that a tiger weighs more than a frog. It's a fantastic game that adults and kids can play together, often at about the same rate of success. In Cardline: Animals, players take turns placing cards in the order of the depicted animal's size, weight, or age. This is a particularly vexing game hidden by absolutely adorable pictures of animals. It's also a fine game to play with folks who don't speak much English (or none), so it bridges communication barriers nicely.

Uno is also the easiest game on this list to teach, and the only one that can really be played with kids who can't read or learn complex rules. Each player plays a single card on their turn (if they can), and the first player to run out of cards is the winner!

It's a fundamental change in a game that otherwise presents very few meaningful choices. It's not just Uno, it's BATMAN Uno! From the ranks of traditional American card games comes another game night favorite! Batman Uno is a special version, not just for the awesome art on the cards, but the addition of an extra card, the 'Draw 3' that allows the player to pick who draws the cards.
