Fancy decks of cards are great, but if you start to collect, you end up not wanting to play with them. A good looking bicycle deck is great for playing many games with.

I am so thrilled that y'all mentioned smile! It is such a great introductory game into modern board and card games. I took it with me to Thanksgiving dinner and introduced it to people who were not into board gaming at all and they really enjoyed it! I like a lot of the ideas and maybe I'm just a little bit slower than the average bear. On my list for this Christmas is creature comforts but I was talking to some friends of mine last night and I feel like it's definitely a little more thinking than it looks. Admittedly it is adorable but I don't think I would want to give it to anyone under the age of 10. Just my opinion. I've also only played it once but I absolutely adore it! I also bought ready set bet and played it for the first time last night and everyone had a good time. Hope to see you all at pax unplugged!

Well, my husband is getting a long list from me. For younger kids I want to also suggest "Hiss" such a fun color matching game. Its super simple but I use it in my 4-5 year old after school classes. And maybe it's a cultural thing but Cash 'n Guns just... doesn't hit me well as a American in the education system. >.>;

Hi. Thank you for your entertaining (and informative) content. I never miss an episode. And thank you for introducing me to the Oodie. I’m giving them as Christmas gifts to members of my family and was even inspired to write a song to accompany the gift, “Have Yourself an Oodilicious Christmas.” I’m sure it will be a big hit 😂. Thanks again and Happy Holidays.
