Summary: <br> We’ve done <a href="http://www.thefamilygamers.com/episode-116-this-is-halloween/">Halloween</a> games before, concentrating on <a href="http://www.thefamilygamers.com/episode-68-halloween/">non-spooky family options</a>. Good news! There continue to be more family-friendly options for Halloween themed gaming.<br> <br> <br> <br> What We’ve Been Playing<br> <br> <br> <br> Horrified – by Ravensburger. We’ll talk more about this later.<br> <br> <br> <br> The Climbers – it looks like a dexterity game, but it’s more about strategy and spatial relations.<br> <br> <br> <br> Meeple Circus – draft characters and add them to your circus. Stack them in specific ways for more points.<br> <br> <br> <br> Fleet: The Dice Game – a roll-and-write that is an engine-building game. Build your fleet of fishing vessels and cascade positive effects. “You always feel powerful.”<br> <br> <br> <br> Anitra has finally played Ganz Shön Clever – and did terribly. But at least now she knows how to play!<br> <br> <br> <br> We’re Doomed! – a semi-cooperative game that plays in exactly 15 minutes. Cooperate, and everyone will get a “seat” on the rocket at the end of the game… or look out only for yourself with limited seating and hope you’ll manage to get on board! No round limit, and don’t forget about the timer.<br> <br> <br> <br> Tobago – a reverse-deduction treasure hunting game. Play clue cards to narrow down the location of each treasure – everyone who places cards will get some treasure once it is “dug up”.<br> <br> <br> <br> CABO – basically Golf with special powers. Quickly becoming Andrew’s favorite short filler game.<br> <br> <br> <br> Incubation – a game about hatching dragon eggs into cute baby dragons. Looked far more complex than it was; great for dragon-obsessed kids, no reading necessary.<br> <br> <br> <br> Dragon’s Breath – HABA is really good at games for all ages.<br> <br> <br> <br> Valley of the Vikings – another one from HABA. Our 5-year-old “taught” Anitra how to play. We disagree whether it’s fundamentally bowling or croquet. It won Kinderspiel last year, and we can see why.<br> <br> <br> <br> <a href="http://www.thefamilygamers.com/seikatsu-review/">Seikatsu</a> opened our most recent Commonheart Game night.<br> <br> <br> <br> <a href="http://www.thefamilygamers.com/drop-it-review/">Drop It</a><br> <br> <br> <br> Sagrada – Andrew is loving this game more over time (though never as much as Roll Player).<br> <br> <br> <br> Narwhal Free-For-All – a ridiculous kids’ game – with water! Thankfully, not nearly as messy as we thought it would be. Put enough water into the reservoir so the narwhals float! Then players try to flick rings over their own color narwhal while another player spins a paddlewheel. It solves so many problems inherent in typical kids games, and Anitra gets excited about these little touches.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> SNAP Review: Carpool Karaoke<br> <br> <br> <br> A friendly karaoke competition, this take on the famous ongoing sketch from the Late Late Show pits players in a one-on-one karaoke showdown. Add movements or impressions to gain points and be the first team to drive your way to victory. But when we sing together, we all win, don’t we?<br> <br> <br> <br> Sing your heart out with the <a href="http://www.thefamilygamers.com/snap-review-carpool-karaoke/">rest of our review</a>.<br> <br> <br> <br> Backtalk<br> <br> <br> <br> Following up to <a href="http://www.thefamilygamers.com/episode-162-your-game-collection/">episode 162</a>, Dwayna asked when Imhotep: The Duel is coming out? (It’s out now!
