When we travelled from India to Switzerland, our company provided a free one month insurance of Mayfair. The day we reached here, my son and I got sick and kept going to hospitals every now and then. We didn't have any insurance card and so we used to carry the printout provided by our company which had the Mayfair id. But then all bills were promptly sent to our home address asking us to s...

Over in Germany board games are as popular as video games are here. They create unique and fun board games. One man in particular Reiner Knizia creates the games that consistently win awards.

In this game you are b...

Why yes, you did read that correctly.  This is a 32-Piece, 4-Person dinnerware set that we received as a wedding gift.  While most sets for four people contain 16 pieces-- 4 dinner plates, 4 lunch plates, 4 bowls, and 4 mugs--this set includes all of the above, PLUS a drinking glass, a knife, fork, and spoon for each place setting.  Everything you need in one box!I really like th...

This is the funest game I've played in many years. It's a real shame that nobody has heard about it. A few of my friends own this game and I've productively spent (wasted) many hours of my life playing this. I love this game because there is some strategy involved but anyone can pick it up just by watching a game or two. It seems complicated and overwhelming at first because there a...

I never used to be a big fan of board games... the only thing I ever played was Magic Cards and that was a phase back in grade school.So now I am the proud owner of Taboo, Cranium, Monopoly, Settlers and many more to come. I believe board games slowly to tickle one's fancy when one reaches a ce...

Settlers of Catan is an award-winning game for a reason.  It's extremely well-designed and suitable for a variety of ages and skill levels.  There's enough randomness and luck to give the less experienced board gamers a chance, but enough strategy that you still need to use your brain to win.  The idea is that you build roads, settlements, and cities to extract resources ...

Modern Art is a cool and unique game. Most of the fun revolves around the secrecy and bidding of art pieces, represented on cards. The more art pieces played the more they are worth. Basically players put up art pieces for auction (just cards from their hands) and they have to auction it based on what the card says. There are several auction types on the cards. In open auction, the piece is j...

Settlers of Catan is the most entertaining board game we own. This game is appropriate for just about any age. We play it during game nights with friends, and our 5 year old daughter also enjoys it. It's very easy to learn, and keeps everyone involved.  The point is to collect 10 "victory points" by building and upgrading settlements, raising an army, and constructing infrast...

Settlers of Cattan is probably the best unknown game in the United States. I was introduced to this game by my younger brother who heard from his tutor teacher. This game is a very unique board game because every game is different. This game revolves around hexagonal shaped pieces which piece together differently each time. Each of these pieces are a certain resource that is required to build ...
