Summer's here and what can we do now?
The Guys play Scrabble Together.
Now that summer has arrived and that we're in July now, Frog, the Robots and Podcast staff is bored and still weary these days. So what do they come up with when it’s time to wake up in the morning, finish breakfast, have a nice cup of Coffee and all of that? They play board games! We wanted to share how we think board games is a nice way to do something while the summer break is back once again. To represent them, let’s share our Top 5 Board Games we’ve liked, we’ve stored and play with for over the years.
Top 5 Placements: 5 ranging from the least to 1 being the best of the pack
Rating Rules: 1 being the worst - 5 being the best
Bounce Off is yet a calm and classic game. The object is to match cards using board with colored balls. We find it unique and simple because we like how the balls bounce into the board and it’s somewhat easy to hover around. We even did a few small videos of Bounce Off and our Alumni even posted a unboxing video of the Mini Version.
Our rating: 3.5/5
Simply put, a simple game with basic rules and strategy.
4. Jenga - Any Version can fit this type of game!
Jenga is what we can definitely can a family favorite. To us: we believe it is a very fun game to play with friends. The object is to stack up the tower without falling. Not only, we’ve been playing Jenga, we also used it for Dominoes fun for fun! We also had to sell two Jenga Quakes since we had another set which we can’t hold and we had classic Jenga with bricks, with wood in them. Jenga always has a good purpose to us! You can read our previous article on the Domino Effect to find out what we played before.
Our rating: 5/5
Definitely something that we can use for playing and filming.
Scrabble is a great game to play with friends if you want to strengthen your minds on the Word Bank. Our staff plays it along in the morning with Coffee and fresh pastry as a reflexer. Something to learn and play at the long term. Also good for photo-oping as well! Lol.
Our rating: 4.5/5
Simple but something unique in the game’s core is that we find it interesting and always different in new rounds everytime.
2. Monopoly - Any Version fits this type of game!
Monopoly is a fun game to play with buddies and the objective is to be the last one standing to win!
We’ve played it a few times and yet, fun to work with. We also liked the Cheater’s Edition because you can
snag in more properties or money without your players ever noticing them. We enjoyed playing it back then.On the My Monopoly version, you can customize your board with pictures that you’ve taken and you can place them on your board! Seems fun!
Our rating: A very strong 4/5
Fun, sometimes you’ll never know what to expect but it’s always enjoyable on this one.
We wanted to honor J! over the years for their most popular Answer and Questions format and we bought the J! board game recently. On this board has all of the unique answers and questions and Final J! questions. Great for battling who has the smarts in this game. Yet our staff is still stumped on a few answers and questions though, lol.
Our rating: 5/5
This rating goes to show that we love and support J! for their awesome dedication as a game show as well as a board game too!
Conclusion of this story:
Our team is has bought and tried more games we didn’t mention but however, we think it’s very fun and enjoyable as a whole, interesting enough, our podcast friend holds a bunch a board games as well!
