Game Night With Winning Moves Games

This is a sponsored post and may contain affiliate links. 

My family and I love to have our family game nights. My daughters and I especially love to play games. We play them very often. I use to play games a lot as a child as well, so it’s nice to make some memories playing games with my daughters now too. They love to play games as much as I do, and I love that. You’ll probably catch us playing games almost every night. It’s a great way to have some fun and connect with everyone too. Winning Moves Games has some wonderful games for the family. Right now they even have some newer games that they’ve just came out with.

Scattergories Stackagories 

The great game of Scattergories debuted in 1988 and now there’s a new twist on the game! Each player controls their own set of colored stacking pieces. Lay out the Letter Cards, flip a Category Card and the one-minute timer and the game is on! Players, playing simultaneously, shout out words that fit the category and place one of their stacking pieces on the corresponding letter card. When time’s up, the player who has their colored stacking piece on the top of the stack scores for that card. The more pieces under their piece, the higher the score!

My daughters and I love Scattergories, so we were really excited to give this version a try. Scattergories has always been a favorite game of ours to play, so this was interesting to play in a different way. It’s still very much like the original, but in a different way. You have to stack up your colored pieces once you figure out a word that starts with the letter shown on the card. For example: lets us the 3-letter words category. Now you have to use those nine letters you have placed down to spell a word that fits this category. You could use cat or dog since there were a c and d shown. It all depends on which letters you have, but it’s a really fun game to play. Your piece must be on top to win though if someone else is stacking on top of yours. The more pieces that are stacked, the higher the points go.

The Mermaid’s Jewels

Mermaids have been swimming through the magical sea, collecting colorful jewels along the way. They have an overflowing treasure chest of “pearls” and want you to join in on the fun! Roll the die and collect pearls from the special pearl sorting treasure chest. Can you string together enough of theses treasures from the sea to make your very own necklace?

This game is great for the kids. This can actually be a really quick game too since you’re just needing to get one of each color. There is a more advanced game though that does take longer if you prefer the game to go longer.

Rack-O

Players randomly slot ten cards on their rack. The race then begins to draw and discard until one player positions ten cards in numerical sequence. Sound simple? It is but you will need skillful play, concentration and just a little luck to win.

Rack-O is a game that my daughters and I love to play a lot. You have to get all your numbers in order from smallest to largest in order to win this game. It’s a simple game to play, yet it can be hard when you don’t get the right card. You still have to take a card even if you don’t want the number. That’s what makes it a bit more difficult to get all your numbers in order too.

Scattergories 30th Anniversary Edition 

The game of Scattergories took the country by storm when it was first launched in 1989. This classic reproduction features the components and categories found in that original Scattergories game. The mechanical timer has 3 different settings so players can set it for more time (for an easier round) roles time when they want more of challenge.

The classic game of Scattergories is a family favorite of ours. We play this game a lot because it’s just one of those games you can enjoy together as a family all the time without getting bored of it. It’s such a great game. Everyone always loves being able to come up with words that fit the categories. It’s fun to see what everyone can come up with.
