Family Board Games

If you’ve ever had a family game night, you know how difficult it can be to find a game that everyone enjoys. There are bound to be people that want a word game, while others are interested solely in tactical and strategy games. That’s why it’s a good idea to choose a game that is fast paced, a little frantic, and a lot silly. This way, everyone is sure to get swept up in the fun and forget that they didn’t get to play the game they wanted!

One game that meets all these requirements is Mad Gab. The game is built around the idea that you read short nonsensical sentences that, when read aloud, sound like a well known phrase or saying. One example would be “plea sway tube ease heated,” which is actually “please wait to be seated.” These types of puzzles are known as mondegreens. There are typically two difficult levels, and it’s a simple game that everyone is sure to grasp and enjoy.
