Better than Triple Yahtzee
938921
I've played Yahtzee since ever since I was old enough to count the dice. When Triple Yahtzee came along in the 70s, we switched to that and have played it ever since. Going back to regular Yahtzee felt like you were giving up too many facets of the game. Power Yahtzee does the same thing to Triple Yahtzee. I can't imagine going back to either of the others now that I've played this one. The Bonus Die really adds a lot of strategy to the game and the play is faster and less tedious. It also is less obvious who will win. With Triple Yahtzee, it is sometimes clear early on who will win and then it's just a slog to the inevitable finish. I find Power Yahtzee to be much more fun and interesting. Great game!

We got a much larger, much harder Nina Ottosson puzzle for our shephard mixes.  We picked this one up so the kids could interact with my mother in laws much smaller and dumber toy poodle.  Intellectually, this game is a good match, but surprisingly we found that it works better with our cats than the dog.  It has proven to be quite a bit of entertainment for both cats and kids.

The construction of this toy is pretty good.  I feel comfortable with the non formaldahyde composites, although it is still a composite material so there are still lots of glues and fillers so it probably isn't perfect, but glad that they are thinking of safety.  The spinning action is great and spins freely, often past the hidden crevices full of treats.  The cats and dog can manipulate it easily, and like I said, it is very entertaining.

My kid begged me for this. I thought this was impractical for a larger family. I was so wrong.

It makes five waffles at a time which actually is better for making them for a group. It's easier for kids to dip them in syrup than to cut a regular waffle. It's fun and novel and yummy with Nutella or peanut butter or syrup.

Small to store. Waffles pop out easy.

Warning: This would be messy and annoying to me without a pancake pen. With a pancake pen you can easily fill waffle maker mess free.

People who have used this at my house have gotten one.

The only thing better than one would be two!

This game is crazy! It's a lot of fun, very quick, and absurd (in the best way). Everyone plays at the same time, so you've got a Hungry Hungry Hippo vibe mixed with a matching game. The rules even change slightly depending on how many players you have, so more people get less piles to use while fewer players get more piles thus making the gameplay smooth regardless of the number of players. Any skill level can play this game, since it's just matching cards while trying to out-slap your opponents. It's one of my favorite games to play!

Saw these on Shark Tank and have been on the fence on trying them and glad we finally did. On the one hand, crickets?! On the other, crickets are a super sustainable food source that also delivers a slew of protein. Willing to give almost any food a try and knowing that it was a cricket flour and not actual crickets made these a lot easier to swallow. Tasting them out, the chips actually ended up being flavorful. The BBQ was the clear stand out with the cheddar in second and the sea salt still being good but the least flavorful of the three.

The bonus is that my 2 year old who is a little overly sensitive to textures (see: just about any kind of meat out there) loves these which helps on the protein intake.

I know the idea of eating bugs or something based off of bugs isn't for everyone (even though there is probably bugs in almost all of our processed meat.) But if you can look past the thought, the final product ended up tasting good. Long term. ideas like this are going to be needed for dealing with the food problems of the world and considering how healthy they actually are for you, that is a huge bonus in itself!

They are lighter, crunchier, less salty than Goldfish.  Plus it is organic, simply PERFECT.  My 3-yr old loves it.

If you like Yahtzee - you'll love Kismet.  Yahtzee with colored dice.  Great for the entire family - and - at a party.

I bought this because I love the Oatmeal and the offbeat cartoons, but it has turned into a big hit with my kids and nephews.  The gameplay is simple enough to learn quickly but nuanced enough to keep you thinking.  Great family game -- my 10 year old twin boys love it and their 11 and 9 year old boy cousins love it too (and they don't always like card games).  Definitely worth the $20 and good as a silly alternative to Yahtzee and Uno for family game nights.

I have never played Payday before so I am not sure how that one compares although I am thinking I will not want to play the board game version of that if it is like this one.
Still Life and Yahtzee are really good.
My main complaint is really my own fault. sometimes I get impatient and I hate having to jump through so many hoops just to get to the point where I can play the game/s.
Otherwise this is a pretty good game and it keeps us fairly distracted when things are going slowly around us and we (or the kids) need to have something to keep from being bored.

You can put Aardvark on basically anything but my favorites are eggs and mac n cheese. Just the right amount of kick with flavors that continue to grow on you. Absolutely flew through my first tube.

Jello jigglers are more fun than ice cubes..... just saying :)

2.0 is much much better than all the previous versions. This might be ultimate form of food for humans!

Ever wanted something different for dinner? Tired of the usual fare that comes across the table? Well, this cookbook is for you!!!!!!!!!! The late Ray Crowe, founder/proprietor of the Western Bigfoot Society (later the International Bigfoot Society) updates his late wife Theata's privately published cookbook and gives us 59 recipes for everything from Bumble Chili to Quebec Wendigo Jerky, from Classic Wudewasa and Chips to Meh-Teh and Broccoli with Walnuts, from Hot Skunk Ape Roast to Nuke 'Em Skookum Pot Pie and everything in between. We get covers from Ray's newsletter The Track Record, and also illustrations by Kate Benton. There is also the misadventures of the Sasquatch Hunt Investigation Team (check out the acronym of the first letters of that appellation, LOL) who venture on a worldwide hunt for culinary delights of the Hairy Hominoid variety, often with hilarious results. Ray was always the type to not take himself or Bigfoot too seriously, which is what made his newsletter so successful, and this wonderful book highlights his great sense of humor. This is a great book, highly recommended, not just for the recipes and humor, but also for just a great read. (Oh,and by the way, the recipes can be adjusted if you do not have Sasquatch cutlets in your freezer.) Get this book.

Much better than the pizza by the same name. Really loved it.

what to say... I loved YW1 but it needed improvements to make it a better experience and was a bit short. The second one not only improves fishing and minigames but the world is three times larger. Also you now know which food yokai like by hovering the cursor over them.

This game is a level 5 gem. They made those awesome dark cloud games on the ps2 and the artwork and world remind me of that. You can even control your yokai in YW busters and play four player co op. It's unfair to compare this to Pokemon in the USA because it's sort of a Japanese cultural phenomenon and niche game but I love anime. Also this was a game before it was an anime. Buy this game and watch the anime you'll love it

This book is better than Nutella and sunshine and maybe even the internet. It comes with stickers (!), a super fab crown, AND a flexidisk. :D

This is simpler than classic Yahtzee..  and theoretically you should be able to play it without writing anything down.. but we actually find that it helps to write down how many times people tried for a certain character.  That being said, this game is a hoot and my 5 year old still likes to play it once a week a year after we bought it and I and my husband don't mind playing it.  It is a good lesson in numbers and prediction etc.  I would say that it is a winning board game.  :)
