Kid's Room

We have many excellent boardgames for your children or you and your children to enjoy. I have a large number for the younger set, and I trust you know if your child needs you to maintain composure and a proper game face.

I especially call to your attention to several new and older games:

My new favorite from GenCon is the Fruit Fair. We collect fruit from the four fruit trees, and sow more fruit for next turn. Thereafter, we can use the fruit to bid for advantages or buy medals at the Faire. This does take some careful planning, so it quite challenging! (Meaning the kids usually beat me!)

Candamir: The First Settlers is an amazing fantasy adventure. Quite appropriate for the DunDraCon setting. This has a nice game mechanic of exploring for resources and herbs and building items for the Village of Catan. Parents and children will like this.

One more favorite is the new Sheer Panic, also by Mayfair. It features the sheep from Wallace and Gromit, is amazingly cute, and has intensive interaction.

Another great interactive game is Basari, from the makers of Apples to Apples. It is a great game of collecting gems and barter. A great favorite.

For the very youngest, we have Kids Catan with lovely wooden pieces and a circular cart path. Very cute and fun.

We will have 20-30 games to play. All are on request basis. Come and find some new favorites for you and your children.

We have games for older kids too (that can mean you, Mom and Dad!) As part of our “Mayfair Day and Night” program, I will have games of Beetlez, Hey, That's My Fish (Penguins), Anno 1503, King Me, Sheer Panic, Starfarers of Catan, and Starship Catan (two player), Iron Dragon, and Silverton.

Finally,check out the listed games especially for kids. Some are schedule into the Kids’ Room, and others are placed elsewhere, but we’ll have signs to direct you to those. They are all action-packed and worth a try. So come check it out.
