Classic games become classics for a reason. Winning Moves excels at both preserving and improving upon games that have been around for years. Today I am reviewing three games that all deserve the classic title: Barrel of Monkeys, Scrabble: Spanish Edition and Scattergories Stackagories.
Barrel of Monkeys
Sometimes, simple games are the best. Barrel of Monkeys is a classic that is still popular because anyone can easily play, and it can be played with one or more people.
The object is simply to pick up as many monkeys as you can without breaking the chain. All of the plastic monkeys can be neatly stored in the small yellow barrel, which makes this game conveniently portable.
Scrabble: Spanish Edition
Both of my kids are currently taking Spanish in school, so I thought this Scrabble en Espanol game would be a fun way to practice their vocabulary.
The rules are the same as the beloved Scrabble, with the addition of special tiles to make Spanish words such as the n with a ~ and double l and double r. This game is fun for both Spanish speakers and those still learning Spanish!
Scattergories Stackagories
Scattergories is one of my all-time favorite board games. However, Scattergories Stackagories is a fun, fast-paced twist on the original. In this version, players call out a word that begins with one of nine letters that fits a given category and place one of their markers on that letter. When time is up, points are tallied according to whose marker is at the top of each stack. I like that everyone is playing at once so no one is waiting for their turn. The one minute sand timer ensures that each round is quick and does not drag on. If you like the original Scattergories, you should give Scattergories Stacakagories a try.
