There also are snakes and ladders all over the place on the board. ***How ...  Read the complete review

I often wonder why people play Snakes and Ladders. Adults certainly must have a pretty drab life if they find they have nothing better to do other than to play Snakes and Ladders. What does play this game actually achieve. Trying to find something positive to say, well, I suppose it helps younger children with their numbers. As the ...  Read the complete review

You have to move up a board to get to ...  Read the complete review

Everything they do involves staring at a screen. EEEK I thought one day, can this really be healthy, do they even know how to play a game together, against each other. So, I went ...  Read the complete review
