Media Watch: 10 Great Family Table Games

MSN has posted the requisite pre-holiday game buying guide on the Lifestyle section of its website, and nestled amongst expected titles like Clue, Boggle and Rummikub are both The Settlers of Catan and Apples to Apples, which by now is pretty much a mainstream game.

The article also includes the requisite number of howlers such as Catan being “a bit like Risk“ and ”Rummikub‘s cool white number tiles form[ing] infinite yet simple combinations.” Sorry, Jill – the number of tile combinations is finite!

I am not surprised by these offerings in a mainstream buying guide article..however, I would not want to play most of these....even huddled around the table at turkey time with the fam!
