Reverse Curse could be a good game for young children. Unfortunately the game is way too boring for everyone else.

A detailed look at the rules for how to play 5 Alive a 1990 card game published by Hasbro and International Games.

Pass the Pigs is a dice game that replaces typical dice with small plastic pigs. You roll the dice and score points based on how the pigs land. The concept for the game is actually quite original. Unfortunately not much else is going for the game.

Easy Come Easy Go is Reiner Knizia’s foray into dice rolling games. While Easy Come Easy Go is a fun game, it is far from original.

Before playing Pyramids, I didn’t have much for expectations. The game didn’t look bad but it didn’t look to be anything special either. Pyramids actually surprised me quite a bit.

Handy, or as I like to call it the game of Twister for fingers is a unique game. Handy can be fun in the right environments but lacks lasting power.

Yahoo Buckaroo! is a children’s game at heart. Despite some issues though, Yahoo Buckaroo! can be enjoyable for adults as well in short doses.

Did you know that the comedian Rodney Dangerfield had his own board game? Until I ran into the game at a local thrift shop, I didn’t. With a title like No Respect you wouldn’t expect much out of the game and due to a heavy reliance on luck No Respect fails to be anything more than mediocre.

When I was a child I remember loving to play the game Pizza Party. After many years, I decided to try the game again. Unfortunately Pizza Party has aged poorly.

Do you love UNO? Does the idea of a machine shooting cards at you sound interesting? Then Card Attack may be for you. Just don’t expect a highly original experience.
