School is officially out for my daughters, and now they’re going to be home most of the time. Both of my daughters are in summer school this year, so that will keep them busy. They are only in summer school for a few hours though, so once they come home, they have a lot of time to keep busy. I always hate the words “I’m bored” when it comes to my kids. There is so much for them to do, yet you always seem to hear those words anyways. My daughters do love playing board games, and so do I. We enjoy doing that together as a family. Across the Board Games has come up with some fun games to play together as a family.
About:
Across The Board games are handcrafted wooden tributes to classic games that are designed to get families together,” wrote The Grommet, an online marketplace of innovative new products. “And they are made to last for many years of game night fun…you’ll find attractive, well-made wooden boards that are crafted with a keen attention to detail. And we bet you’ll also find lots of kids and grown-ups who want to play them again and again.
Assault Strategy Game:
It’s a fresh take on a classic strategy board game that pits attackers and defenders against each other with the goal of outsmarting the competition and ultimately capturing the castle.
Assault Game. NEW!!! UNIQUE!!! Created by a local inventor!
Assault is a unique board game for two players. There are two Defenders against 24 Attackers. The design of the board and the rules make for a balanced contest.
Includes solid wood game board, 24 black marbles, 2 red marbles and directions.
Approximate dimensions are 11 3/4″ x 11 1/2″ x 1 1/2″.
Game weighs nearly 3 lbs.
Playing the Game:
This game is all about strategy. This is a two player game and one person will be the defender and the other will be the attacker. The defender has all the red pieces, and the attacker has the black pieces. The attacker gets to move first, and they can only move along the black lines. Then the defender gets to move, and they can move on any of the lines in any direction. The defender can jump the attacker, and remove them out if they jump them. The way the attackers win, is if they get all their black pieces in the red square. Of course the defender would win if they were to jump all the pieces from the attacker.
These games could all make great Father’s Day gifts this year too. They have a great deal going on right now for Father’s Day. It’s: Buy One Get One Half! Through 6/16. Make sure you check out all of their games and grab one for Father’s Day! I know my father or husband would love these because we all enjoy playing games!
If you are looking for some fun new games to play, I’d highly recommend these from Across the Board. The Assault game is a new favorite of ours, and it’s so simple to play. Even my daughters can easily understand this game. We love the wooden board games like these too. They hold up very well and are extremely sturdy.
