King’s Gold by Blue Orange is an adventurous dice game. You roll your luck to get the best dice combos. You want to be the richest Pirate to win the game. You’ll get chances to steal from the treasure chest, the King’s gold and other Pirates.

Stealing happens left and right in the game. It’s one of Anyce’s favorite parts of this game. She likes to get greedy. However, you do need to become the richest Pirate to win. So let loose and steal from your mates. Here’s a picture to show you how much Anyce loves stealing.

 

King’s Gold comes in a beautiful tin with some great components. You can play right from the tin. It will include 5 pirate Dice and 60 golden treasure coins. You can play with 2-6 players. The more pirates the better. It’s super quick we have never taken longer than 15 minutes to complete a game. Don’t forget stealing from your mates is the best part.

This game is perfect for traveling due to the tin. Anyce will be bringing this game to her ballet classes and school events. We love to have some easy to go games during down times. I also love that you don’t have to know how to read to play this game. After showing Zayden a few times how to play he will be able to join in on the fun. Pick this game up for your family, to be a great filler or as a starter for a game night. Let us know what you think of it. We love it. They had me easily with Pirates and Dice. What’s not to love!

Disclaimer: Blue Orange did send us this game to review. This no way changed our opinions on this game. I would buy it for myself or even as a gift for others. This game has become a favorite in our family.

Rory Story Cubes

One of our all time favorite games is Rory Story Cubes. This is a must for family game nights. Its fun, entertaining and never the same. It works for all ages, as the kids don’t have to know how to read. It is simply rolling the dice and making a story based off of the images you see. We also like to use these cubes for icebreakers. When we have parties with kids who don’t all know each other. Using story cubes gets all the kids interacting with each other and the laughs started.  Who can make the silliest or the scariest story? Let your imagination run crazy!

They have a few editions. Story Cubes, Story Cubes Actions and Story Cubes Voyages. These 3 games include 9 dice each. They have now released Clues, Enchanted and Prehistoria. These I consider them expansions as they only come with 3 dice each.  You can you use all of the sets separately or combined. We like to mix it up and play with different cubes each time we play. Pictures down below.

They will be releasing a BATMAN edition! I am over the moon excited about it! We all love super heroes, especially Batman.I can’t wait to get my hands on it.  We will be posting pictures and a video review, once we have it. Hopefully your family enjoys Story Cubes as much as we do!
