Buckaroo

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Games and Puzzles
from: Hasbro FirstOrder Account


I have fond memories of playing this game when I was a child, (over 30 years ago), so I bought one for my son's fourth birthday. The first one would not 'buck' at all, even when set to 'difficult' so it was exchanged. The replacement is only slightly better. The new mule, according to the box is supposed to be 'moodier'. It looks a bit more colourful but the old version definitely worked better. You shouldn't have to get all the paraphanelia on and give it a poke before it goes off. It ruins the excitement.

Murder a la Carte Mystery Dinner Party Game - The Champagne Murders

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Games and Puzzles
from: Paul Lamond


This was my very fisrt murder mystery and it was great fun. The plot is hilarious with all kinds of unexpected twists. The tape is really helpful with a summary after each round. This one is set in London, 1967 with gangsters, actors and singers.

All the guests had a fantastic time. It's the sort of thing that's fun whether it's taken seriously or not, as it is possible to work out who dunnit.

I would recommend this to anybody over the age of 16.

Carcassonne Expansion 1: Inns & Cathedrals

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Games and Puzzles
from: Esdevium Games (First Order Account)


Inns and Cathedrals really is a superb addition to the basic Carcassonne set. It adds a lot more options for playing the game without overly complicating the rules or adding radically different elements to the game. Certainly an expansion for family play, it is a less ruthless than some of the later releases.

You have a large meeple who counts double; inn and cathedral tiles that score more points for completed roads and cities respectively, but only if they are finished before the game ends. There is also an extra set of meeples for a sixth player and tokens to denote 50 and 100 points scored.

Small additions that really add to the enjoyment of the game.

Doctor Who Uno

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Games and Puzzles
from: Flair Leisure Products PLC First Order Account


This one was an immediate hit with my son who is just eight. The downside is I am now playing games of Uno every night before going to bed, as his treat. The upside is tactically he is getting very good and has started beating me regularly. It does require even the grown up brain to be in gear, but games last only a few minutes - even a long fought out vicious game is only about fifteen minutes. And you can play it sitting up in bed.
