Ohio: Box Cover Front
Rating: 2.8/5

Ohio Review

Ohio is pure chaos in a box. Expect wild swings, silly rules, and a good laugh—just don’t expect to outsmart anyone! Bring snacks, don’t bring your poker face.

*Star: Box Cover Front
Rating: 3.5/5

*Star Review

Playing *star with my friends felt like herding cats in space—chaotic, loud, and a bit random. Sometimes strategy worked, but luck often crashed the party. Still, we laughed more than we argued, which is a win in my book.

Focus: Box Cover Front
Rating: 4.3/5

Focus Review

Focus looks simple but packs a punch. Every move takes brainpower and the board keeps shifting. No lucky rolls here—just skill, tension, and the kind of fun that makes you play again. Bring your thinking cap!

Delta: Box Cover Front
Rating: 4/5

Delta Review

Delta packs clever strategy and quirky art into every session. It's a blast with friends, though the font might make you squint. Skill wins more than luck here—finally, a game where planning doesn’t just mean praying!

Pizza: Box Cover Front
Rating: 3.5/5

Pizza Review

If you want a fast, silly game where you can out-topping your mates and yell over missing pepperoni, Pizza delivers. It's not for deep thinkers, but the laughs (and groans) are as big as a family slice.

Shazamm!: Box Cover Front
Rating: 3.5/5

Shazamm! Review

Ever wanted to duel your friends without setting the kitchen on fire? Shazamm! delivers tense wizard battles, big laughs, and just enough chaos to keep both your ego and your eyebrows intact.

Pirates!: Box Cover Front
Rating: 3.3/5

Pirates! Review

Pirates! is a rowdy, luck-filled adventure—perfect for group laughs but not for deep thinkers. Simple rules and wild swings keep everyone guessing, even if your pirate career sinks faster than my dignity during karaoke night.

Shazam: Box Cover Front
Rating: 3.3/5

Shazam Review

Shazam brought laughs, shouts, and a bit of table-flipping. Bluffing is king, luck lurks in the shadows, and the art pops. Great for fun nights—just don’t expect grand strategy or you’ll end up cursing your top hat.

Pirates Review

Pirates delivers laughs, chaos and a fair bit of shouting over stolen treasure. While luck sometimes rules the seas, you’ll still want to grab your eyepatch and join the rowdy, map-flipping fun. Just watch out for unexpected mutiny!

Museum Review

Museum wowed me with its art and card variety. Shuffling is a workout, but the fun set collection and sneaky player moves make up for it. Great for anyone who likes a little chaos with their history.
