There various collaborative games out there too where all the players have to play against the board. Some of the players may have to be "sacrificed! along the way for the players to win overall so we thought we might buy him one of these for his birthday ;)A Green and Rosie Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02501989987736281707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2878260668698530448.post-77312495136650934602015-01-23T07:25:39.761+01:002015-01-23T07:25:39.761+01:00I've not heard of half of these!!

There is a large element of chance, yes, but when you land on say Mayfair/Park Lane and only have £500 left, you have to strategise - do I spend all my money on that knowing I could get a very big return if someone lands on me, even though statistically the orange ones are the one's that are landed on most through-out the game. Just my thoughts.<br /><br />I love the look of Ticket to ride - never heard of that before!<br />Kat x #TheListKatrina Chambershttp://www.mumforfun.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2878260668698530448.post-60272759031067303012015-01-16T08:47:14.171+01:002015-01-16T08:47:14.171+01:00I've looked up Munchkin and may get that as a ...I've looked up Munchkin and may get that as a present for one of the boys.
